Ireland is the third-largest island in Europe. It is home to the independent state of the Republic of Ireland which occupies 80 % of its territory, and Northern Ireland which is part of the United Kingdom. The Irish weather is often described as extremely changeable. The bright sun suddenly turns into the pouring rain which, however, usually ends quickly. The Atlantic Ocean, which surrounds the island, makes the weather change suddenly, but it also protects the country from low temperatures. The coastal mountain and hill chains protect the island from storms and winds. The climate of Ireland is temperate with mild winters and pleasant summers. It is usually wet in the west of the country, but it is dry in the east. Snow and severe frosts are rare in Ireland. The average winter temperature is about eight degrees Celsius. In the summer, the temperature is about 25–30 degrees Celsius.
