Ireland has a temperate climate, with the obvious seasonal changes. The warmest recorded air temperature was 33.3 °C (91.94 °F) on 26 June 1887, whereas the lowest recorded temperature was −19.1 °C (−2.38 °F) 16 January 1881.

More recently the temperature is about -4 to 5 degrees on a cold winter day and in summer anywhere from 10-30 degrees depending.(these values are in celsius)

Ireland is home to many lakes, including Lough Neagh, Lough Erne, and Lough Corrib. Some of the major rivers in Ireland are the River Shannon, the River Barrow, and the River Liffey. These waterways play an important role in the country's landscape and provide habitats for various wildlife.

Ummm, that's somewhat arguable. The southern tip of Ireland is at 51.5 degrees north, which is either in the "northern latitudes" or pretty close to the edge. I wouldn't call it "mid-latitude".

Let me put it another way; the southern tip of Ireland is well north of the northern tip of Maine, and about on the same latitude as Labrador, Canada.

That would be a "fjord," which is a long, narrow sea inlet with steep sides or cliffs, typically formed by glacial erosion. In southern Ireland, these fjords are often a result of Ice Age glaciers shaping the landscape.

No. But there is a volcano in Ireland and it erupted last year! That volcano was in Iceland. Regarding the sugarloaf, there are a number of sugarloaf mountains in Ireland. Only 1 is a volcano which is extinct. Ireland has many volcanos all of which are extinct.

There are 8 altogether. Dublin, Galway, Cork, Limerick, Waterford and Kilkenny in the Republic. Derry and Belfast in Northern Ireland.

Although officially termed Cities, Galway, Waterford, Kilkenny, and Galway are really large towns.

Ireland's climate is mainly influenced by the Atlantic. It has a damp, but mild winter, relative to other countries. It does not get the extremes of heat or cold that other countries get. This is also due to the gulf stream, which brings warmer waters around the coast of Ireland, particularly the south and southwest. Most cold winter weather comes from the north or east, from continental Europe. Winds predominantly come from the west or southwest. Compared to other countries, Ireland does not have many very high mountains, and much of the centre of the country is quite flat. Snow would be more common in mountainous areas, but not very common, or sufficient to make winter sports very viable in Ireland.

Ireland is five hours ahead of North Carolina from the last Sunday of March until the last Sunday of October and from the first Sunday of November until the second Sunday of March. During the rest of the year, the time difference is four hours.

07:00 EST (in North Carolina Nov-Mar) =
08:00 EDT (in North Carolina Mar-Nov) =
12:00 GMT (in Ireland Oct-Mar) =
13:00 IEST (in Ireland Mar-Oct)

It is because that feature is constantly displayed in cinema, television, print media, greeting cards, etc. I have to say Americans are probably the worst for this. They have a tough time accepting anything that isn't just like they expect it to be.

Bulgaria uses EET - Eastern European Time EET is UTC + 2 hours, meaning EET is 2 hours ahead of Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) Note that during summer daylight saving time/summer time is observed, and EEST is used instead.

To find out what the time there is now, convert your local time to UTC, then add 2 hours.

Ireland is at (Greenwich Mean Time) GMT. New Zealand is (Greenwich Mean Time) GMT +12 hours, ie. 12 hours ahead of Greenwich, England. Ireland is 12 hours behind New Zealand. (Daylight savings not taken into account.)

The snowy season in Iceland is between October 19 and May 6. Snowfall in winter is more common in the north than the south. The average annual snowfall in the glacier regions of central and northern Iceland is 180-inches per year. Closer to the coast, less than 80-inches of snow fall annually.

The Cliffs of Moher are located in County Clare on the western coast of Ireland, overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. They are one of Ireland's most popular natural attractions, attracting thousands of visitors each year.

Emerald is one of the precious gems that are native to Ireland. Small amounts of sapphire and ruby have been found in Ireland as well.

Emerald IS NOT NATIVE TO IRELAND but is associated with it as it is called the "Emerald Isles".emerald material is native to many places including Brazil, and the Minas Gervais region of that country where most of the marketed faceted emerald stones originate. Sapphire and Ruby are also not native to Ireland. In fact they are not native to any single country but found in many.Most aspphire material is found in gravels in stream beds and rice paddies in Asian countries.Most notably Thailand, Burma and Border areas near the two countries.Corundum - or rubies and sapphire materials are also found in North Carolina and Montana (for sapphires) in the USA . Most concentrated near Cherokee County, and in Franklin NC and Hiawassee Georgia. Road-side mining stops in the Smoky Mountains in North Carolina offer bags of salted dirt tourists can go through ( with water on a 'sleuce' and in mesh frames which hold the gem materials and allow dirt and clays to fall through) in hopes of finding gem material that originated in Brazil and other countries that is added together and placed in bags sold for quite a lot of money. Though it is fun and one may find some chips of gems or "d" grade material the gems are not usually found together but are collected from blast mining operations and added to the dirt, shipped in 55 gallon drums overseas then re-bagged and resold to unsuspecting tourists at highly inflated prices. Further they offer to set the stones for a HIGHLY inflated price in an overpriced setting. If the gemstone were taken home with the "finder" they could have the same stone set by a local jeweller for a fraction of the cost and an easily collected on warranty! if the stone comes loose in the setting.

The national emblem of Ireland is the harp, which is a symbol of Irish culture and history. It has been used for centuries to represent the country and its people, appearing on official documents, government seals, and currency. The harp is also associated with Irish music and folklore, making it a powerful and recognizable symbol of Ireland.

Upperlands is located in County Londonderry, in Northern Ireland.

Ireland did not fight in World War I as it was under British rule at that time. Many Irishmen, however, volunteered to fight with the British Army. The Easter Rising of 1916 in Dublin during the war led to increased support for Irish independence.

It is actually spelled Gaynortown an is centered in Longford County, near Lough Gowna

Ireland became self-governing in 1922 when it gained independence from British rule and established the Irish Free State through the Anglo-Irish Treaty. This marked the end of British dominion over most of Ireland and the beginning of Irish self-governance.

There are actually four Irish provinces - Munster, Leinster, Connacht and Ulster. At one time there were five provinces - in addition to the above mentioned there was Meath. In fact the Irish word for province is cúige, a fifth. (The Irish language names for the Provinces are: Cúige Mumhan, Cúige Laighean, Cúige Connacht and Cúige Uladh.)
