Dublin - Post Report Question and Answers

What is the overall climate: is it extremely hot or cold, wet or dry, at any time of year, for example?

Very temperate, never too hot, never too cold. Can be grey and rainy, but nowhere near as much as the southwest of the country near Shannon. 80F is a heatwave here, winter may get down to 25F. It's an easy climate and one that I love. It's like Portland Oregon without the hippies. - Jul 2016


Oh the weather. Well, it does rain (that's why it's so green!). Winters are damp and cold - bring your thermal undies! It gets down to the 30s (F) in the winter, sometimes with a very small smattering of snow and ice. If you're lucky, it can reach the high 70s in the summer but that usually not common or consistent. For the almost 4 years we were there we had lovely weather in April and May and the rest of the summer was a bit of a disappointment weather wise. But don't dismay - sunnier European climes are a short, cheap flight away! - Jun 2014
