Travel Info I am going to Ireland in the begining of October. What clothes should I bring for the weather in October? Travel Tips If you are coming to Ireland in October I would recommend that you bring a couple of good jumpers, a coat and an umbrella. The weather in Ireland is extremely changeable from day to day. Ireland is on the same Gulf Stream as the lower US states. As the warm air travels over the Atlantic is cools before reaching Ireland. This mild temperature and weather conditions give Ireland some lovely summer months and the occasional Indian summer. As you travel around Ireland you'll see many different microclimates, which are all a byproduct of the warm air coming off the Atlantic. Tropical climates in the southwest of the island have given places like Garinish Island the ability to grow exotic plants and flowers, and the Burren of north Co Clare the climate to grow rare species of flora that you won't see anywhere else in Ireland. Ireland is on the same latitude as Washington State in the US. Weather in Ireland would be similar to that of, say, Seattle. Both Seattle and Ireland receive about the same rainfall per year and maintain similar temperatures. Like Ireland, Seattle also has pockets where exotic flora thrives. That's not to say that Ireland doesn't get a cold. It does. In the winter, cold weather moves south from Iceland to cool those warmer winds of the Gulf Stream. Ireland gets a tremendous amount of rain which will usually continue well into the spring. Snow is a rare treat for the southwest, but will often occur in the late winter months in the northeast. Others Warm and waterproof. I went in November and it was slightly warm, not cold at all but it did rain a lot, take light but warm clothes and light waterproofs as well, you'll have a great time! Heavy clothes, like jumpers, trousers heavy jackets, umbrella's etc. The weather is crap in October. I live here Modified 11 months ago |
