Continuation of the graph I posted yesterday but this one is now on number of days with 20°C or more at the Irish station, Carlow (Oak Park) for every year since records began in 1967. If you did not see yesterday's post, I said that the station closed in 1997 and became automatic in 2003 thus why the gap between 1996 and 2004 on the graph. Carlow (Oak Park) does not have a full year data for 1967 and 1969 so them years are not complete but the rest are. 1995 is on top again but interestingly, 1975 is in second place!
I added a 5 year running average just for fun on the graph.
2018 has had 52 such days up to July 23rd which is already more than the majority of Summers. Up to 30th June, the station had 31 such days including 11 in May and 20 in June which I think are new records for their respective months at the station.
Top 5 years with most 20°C or more days at Carlow (Oak Park)
1995 - 85 days
1975 - 77 days
1989 - 68 days
1984 - 66 days
1976/2013 - 62 days
