On April in Galway

In April, we apparently get nearly 5(!!) hours of "sun" per day, up from about 3.2 in March. The average high is 12, and the low 5C. The average rainfall is half that of March - all the way down to 52mm. The average wind speed is 8.4 knots, the lowest average over the entire year. And according to some tourist websites, summer hours are in effect April-September. So apparently it's summer, and this is possibly the nicest it'll get. I'm hopeful.
