Ireland Weather
The reason I
am bringing this up now is because our weather is similar right now in South
Bend. The same way we are averaging
between 45 and 60 with humidity is what to expect in Ireland. We were there at the beginning of October
last year and we had a couple sunny days in the 60s. Like here the weather can definitely differ
from the average so we will hope for better not worse.
Yesterday in
South Bend it was 47 degrees in the middle of the day but felt like 42. I think you will find the same in Ireland if
it isn’t a sunny day. There always seems
to be a breeze and that breeze along with the humidity can make it feel colder
than the actual temperature. So if you
are wondering what type of jacket or sweater to bring – now is a good time to
figure it out. What would you have worn
yesterday to keep warm?
I find it is
always better to be safe than sorry.
Granted you can buy a really nice woolen sweater as a souvenir and use
it. Just remember that you won’t enjoy
yourself as much if you are freezing.
Plus for those smokers – smoking is banned in all bars, restaurants, and
pubs in Ireland. Many pubs have an
outside area for the smokers. If you
plan to smoke it will be outside. All of
our accommodations will be on or close to the sea. The winds will be coming off of the water
making it feel cooler.
I always
bring a long sleeve shirt (thermal or running shirt) that is extremely warm to
place under my jacket. That way if it is
too warm I just take off the shirt. A
light jacket and long sleeve shirt are easier to pack than a heavy jacket and
you won’t need a big jacket in Italy.
