The name the Romans gave to Ireland was Hibernia, meaning, 'Land of Winter', and cold feet may have been a factor in their decision to leave the Irish to their own devices! This lively overview shines a light on incidents when the weather- generally bad- changed the course of Ireland's history. But there are sunny stories too, and remarkably Ireland's weather has remained the same mixed blessing since people first set foot on the land.
