Poll: When does summer start?

Sure, Met Éireann says not till June. But what does your heart tell you?

SURE, THE COUNTRY has bigger things to worry about – but here’s a question you might find yourself asking at some stage today…

Is it summer yet?

Depends who you ask, really. Met Éireann would say the Irish summer starts on the first day of June – but if you ask an astronomer you’ll get a different answer entirely.

So what does your gut tell you, this May Day morning?
