Why does it rain so much in Ireland?

Question

Raining as we speek..

Answer 1

Its to do with the Gulf stream carrying warm sea water from the gulf of Mexico across the atlantic, this warmer area of water causes rain clouds....

Answer 2

It's just Irish Mist...

Answer 3

Something has to be done to keep it green!  I blame a joint government/ tourist industry conspiracy.

Answer 4

Look at its neighbor the the West.

Like Seattle.

I think the mountains have something to do with it, Somethng about the fronts colliding.

Oh, and the pattern of the wind streams.

Answer 5

Its got something to do with the atlantic ocean next to it and the gulf stream

Answer 6

Ireland is for many clouds coming from the west the first piece of land, after those clouds have been fully soaked on their journey across the atlantic ocean.

Answer 7

Something to do with the warm weather from the Gulf caught in the North Atlantic Drift mixing with the Southernly trade winds creating anti-cyclones or 'low pressure' areas, and then i just rains.

That or we're very unlucky
