Picking the best time to come on holiday to Ireland needs a lot of consideration. Our unpredictable weather makes it difficult to advise anybody as to when they might enjoy sunshine but at least you can be reasonably accurate when talking about how cold or warm it might be at different times. We rarely suffer from really extreme heat or cold. If we go up into the eighties we are suffering here and we also find anything under zero very cold. At the moment during the day we are anywhere between five and eight degrees and at night maybe down to about minus two or three in some areas and around zero elsewhere. The months when you can expect a reasonable amount of sunshine would be May to September. June July and August should be the months when we reach our highest temperatures but May and September can also be lovely months and never too warm or cold. Sometimes April and October can be very nice also and it is extremely difficult to advise anybody on when it might be best to come here. The best thing about our weather if you come anytime from April to October is that you will neither freeze nor bake. I have people who travel with me repeatedly who absolutely love our cooler weather mixed with a bit of rain. It is not often that you get a day when it rains all day. Occasional showers can be much more common and that does not spoil things too much. We do get some lovely weather here and it annoys me when people say that it always rains in Ireland. That is not true and we do get a lot of lovely sunny weather...just like we had today. It is also forecast for the rest of this week....and this is February. Another thing that is worth considering is the daylight hours. At the moment it gets bright at about 8 a.m. It gets dark right now at about 6 p.m. At the height of the Summer the sun comes up somewhere around 4:30 a.m and it does not get dark until about 11:00p.m.
Anytime from May onwards you are getting a great stretch in the day and this goes right through into October. It gives you more time to get out and enjoy an early morning walk or a late evening stroll. Remember, Ireland never changes, it is just that somedays she wears a different dress. Come and see for yourself. My chauffeurdrive business is not dependent on the weather. Irelands appeal goes much deeper than that.
