About the weather in Galway

Galway faces the Atlantic on the west coast, and the weather comes straight in off the ocean. Expect more rain and more wind than the east, quick changes through the day, and a lot of light after a shower passes. Sea breezes make Salthill feel cooler than the city.

Across Ireland, spring is cool and bright with showers, summer highs are typically in the high teens with long evenings, autumn is the wettest and windiest stretch as the Atlantic fronts return, and winter is mild for the latitude with frost on clear nights. Rain can arrive in any month.
