Answer 1

Irish Weather through the Year

It's often said that in Ireland you get four seasons in one day, and there is some truth in this! The weather is never really predictable, no matter what the season.

Summer Storm BrewingIn July and August there can be surprisingly warm weather in Ireland with average temperatures of around 15ºC -18ºC, occasionally as high as 30ºC. It can become humid as the temperature rises and sudden and heavy, though usually short, thunder storms are not uncommon.

In winter clouds and rain are more common with the occasional warm sunny days. Heavy snow falls are rare although the tops of mountains may be covered with snow for much of the winter. Average temperatures in Ireland in January and February (usually the coldest months) are about 5ºC.

Spring and Autumn are less predictable - you could find yourself soaking up the Sun in April but equally you could have difficulty driving on icy roads.

So essentially in Ireland the weather could do anything - be prepared for that!

Answer 2

It rains in the spring.  Same in the summer,, fall and winter.

Answer 3

The dominant influence on Ireland's climate is the Atlantic Ocean. Consequently, Ireland does not suffer from the extremes of temperature experienced by many other countries at similar latitude.

Average annual temperature is about 9 °C. In the middle and east of the country temperatures tend to be somewhat more extreme than in other parts of the country. For example, summer mean daily maximum is about 19 °C and winter mean daily minimum is about 2.5 °C in these areas.

Mean annual windspeed varies between about 4 m/sec in the east midlands and 7 m/sec in the northwest. Strong winds tend to be more frequent in winter than in summer. Sunshine duration is highest in the southeast of the country. Average rainfall varies between about 800 and 2,800mm.

With southwesterly winds from the Atlantic dominating, rainfall figures are highest in the northwest, west and southwest of the country, especially over the higher ground. Rainfall accumulation tends to be highest in winter and lowest in early summer.

The annual number of days with more than 1 mm of rain varies between about 150 in the drier parts and over 200 in the wetter parts of the country. Met Éireann has station data going back to the 19th century for some dozens of stations.
