It is not very warm. However Ireland in general has a climate which does not get as cold as other places in the northern hemisphere which are the same distance from the equator. The main reason for that is that Ireland and much of Western Europe benefits from the Gulf Stream, a current of warm water that comes from the Mexican Gulf. It helps bring milder weather than might otherwise be the case. So Ireland does not have as cold a winter as it could, but it also does not have as hot a summer as other places in the northern hemisphere which are the same distance from the equator do. This is also due to the Gulf Stream and to the fact that Ireland is on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean.
