I am thinking about going to Ireland?

Question

I have a friend in Belfast who says they will take me all around even to Dublin. What is the weather like in late October? I heard rainy, but is it cold?

Answer 1

Basically the weather in Ireland is unpredictable all year round. But on the plus side, we are friendly and we know how to show visitors a great time. Come on over and have a ball!!!!

Answer 2

rainy and cold all year round i'm afraid, except for the two weeks of summer.

Answer 3

I was in Ireland twice in December (December 1999 and 2005) and once in April (2004).  Both winter and spring were cold. (around 40 degrees F in the daytime and low 40's/high 30's at night).  The rain was fairly constant too.

I would definately bring a warm coat or jacket and an umbrella.

Answer 4

It can get pretty cold in October in Ireland and  wet as well.  Yet, in the south it can be rainy one minute and sunny the next. Of course Dublin is a bit of a drive from Belfast, so the weather will differ. I guess you know that Belfast is regretably part of the U.K and not part of the republic.

Answer 5

During the summer it can have beautiful weather and if you are lucky September and October will be calm. I love it Clonakilty, West Cork, in the south.  It has beautiful beaches so I'd definatly recommend coming here like Inchadoney which, if you get a calm/good day, you'll spend hours relaxing, maybe on the beach or maybe at the luxury Lodge and Spa hotel over-looking it.

Answer 6

Yes, Yes, and all year round!lol
