Weatherday: Torpedo!

A fair morning with sunny spells. The afternoon will be more overcast, clearing again to spells of sunshine later.

Highest temperatures around 14deg. It will be dry, with moderate southerly winds.

On this day in 1915, the Lusitania was torpedoed and sank with the loss of almost 1,200 lives off the Old Head of Kinsale. You can listen to my podcast on the event below.
