Kinsale 10-day forecast, out to 14 days
where the models agree, and where they splitKinsale is a small town of about 5,281 people in Co. Cork, sitting at 51.7°N in a temperate climate zone.

CheckWeather Score, graded against the weather that actually happened
The CheckWeather Score blends temperature, wind and rain accuracy, each measured against ERA5 (the recorded weather) over the last 30 days across 60 cities. Lower error means a higher score.

Where the models disagree
temperature and rain, judged separatelyThe models often agree on temperature and still split on rain, and rain is usually what decides whether a plan survives. A wide rain range means the shower is genuinely uncertain, not that the forecast is wrong.
