Just a repeat as I have said before...I love the Irish weather...we had 5 snowfalls in the midlands last winter and I welcome more this year. It may rain everyday but very rarely does it rain all day & night for weeks as it can in Northern CA, including fog that you can not even see the front of your car nor a glimmer of sun for 2 months. Then speaking of sun that would be about 5 months of temps from near 100F to 115F. After 20 years of that I have had more than enough sun to last the rest of my life. I do go to CA 2-3 times for 4-6 wks each and always pray for the weather not to be hot but that rarely works in May when I do go. I really don't think you will find Ireland as dreary as Seattle can be.That said though we have had a bit more rain this month than most and a couple of dry days would be nice to get the lawn mowed. I did come home Sat to a flooded front part of the lawn, water up to the car doors. We had spent the week on the south coast with one grand day of sunshine. Cheers!
