A survey reveals exactly how much Irish people talk about the weather

No surprise

Joe Harrington

Soft day, thank God.

We’re not sure if you know this but there’s a perception out there that Irish people LOVE talking about the weather.

We’re 100% serious, apparently it’s all we talk about.

Dean-is-annoyed

That annoying notion has been looked at a little closer in a survey by Ipsos MRBI and Dulux Weathershield, and it seems we do chat about the weather a lot.

According to the survey, 60% of people talk about the weather twice a day and 25% of people chat about it at least four times on a day.

The research also found that 62% of Irish people believe every forecast they see online or hear on TV.
