Nice blanket of snow at sunrise over #WestCork this morning. Taken near Sams Cross looking South East. You can just about make out Galley Head in the distance.

Delighted to graduate with a first class honours MBA from UCD Smurfit today. It’s been an incredible journey over the past two years, but I couldn’t have done it without my family, friends, classmates and work colleagues.

All-time heat records getting smashed before noon.

Hotter tomorrow. Hotter the day after... I can't believe what I am seeing.

The US Pacific Northwest and BC Canada is at the epicentre of one of the most outrageous heatwaves in history.

There is currently a Saharan dust plume impacting on Ireland and large areas of Europe - adding to local pollutant levels to cause very poor, poor & fair air quality across Ireland. See https://t.co/RejyxuVjJa & automated tweets on @epaairquality for localised air quality info.

How much radiation is dangerous? Tonight's @EcoEye (@RTEOne 7pm) explores radiation exposure in Ireland.

The late Dr Ciara McMahon features in this episode. Ciara had a long and distinguished career in radiological and environmental protection. She is sorely missed.
