Storm on the Way

Ireland's weather is variable, the country is influenced by westerly winds from the Atlantic predominantly but is also subject to Arctic and Siberian influences.

A scene from the west of Ireland as storm clouds roll in.

Ireland’s weather is variable, the country is influenced by westerly winds from the Atlantic predominantly but is also subject to Arctic and Siberian influences.

The scene ahead of me here on this road saw low cloud sweeping across the landscape, covering mountains and adding a great sense of drama to the west of Ireland.

Thankfully it didn’t rain, the rest of the day’s scenes were just as impressive.
