weather words

Hello. My name is Fatima and I’m studying English in Ireland. I like the weather here. Ireland is wet and humid. The temperatures are never very high. It is usually cool in the summer and cold in the winter. In July and August, the high temperatures are around 20º. The winter months are cooler, with temperatures around 5º. There is a lot of rain in Ireland all year long. It rains more in the West than in the East. The wettest place is Valentia Island and the driest place is Dublin.

Ireland is a hot and dry country.
