Umbrella Etiquette & Weather Changes

So you're going to Ireland... and you’re wondering what do you need to bring, what are you necessities. There are three things you need to bring to Ireland, spring summer fall or winter you may need them or not but you'll fit right in as long as you have:

1) A pair of sunglasses
2) An umbrella
3) A wool coat.

Now, I know what you’re thinking: ‘I’m going to be there in the middle of the summer, what do I need a wool coat for?!’

My answer is simple: I have no idea, but lemme tell you, it’ll be the hottest day of the year and the middle of summer and you can bet that you’ll see someone out there in a wool coat.

Here it rains, it’s sunny, cloudy, and partly cloudy and that’s all in one day. And then? once and a while if you’re lucky (lucky means you’re somewhere safe) it hails.
