On March in Galway

Usually I do the average weather information at the beginning of the month, but this month I'm doing it at the end. Next month's will hopefully be tomorrow - making comparison quite easy! The general weather trend in Galway is generally cyclical (like everywhere) with December and January being the absolute worst (an hour of "sun" a day and a relative humidity approaching 90 with between 100 and 125mm of rain). March has been considerably nicer. The average high in March is just below 10 with the low around 3C. The wind speed averages to 10.6knots, and rainfall is all the way down to around 100mm. On top of that, we get an incredible 3.2 hours of "sun" per day! Which is pretty much amazing. But just wait to find out about April - apparently it CAN get better!
