Welcome. Today, we'll compare the climates and seasonal conditions of Ireland and Japan.
Excellent! Let's start with Ireland, often called the "Emerald Isle," though "Misty Isle" might be more accurate given its unpredictable weather.
Precisely. Ireland has mild temperatures and abundant rainfall—over 200 rainy days annually are common.
So, it's always umbrella weather. What about Japan?
Japan experiences four distinct seasons: spring's cherry blossoms, humid summers, colorful autumns, and snowy winters.
Snow monkeys in hot springs! But how humid are those summers?
Very humid, often exceeding 30°C with high humidity.
Despite differences, both countries adapt. In Ireland, people layer and use waterproofs; in Japan, they celebrate and prepare for each season.
Layering and waterproofs—a fashion statement! How do they handle extreme weather?
Ireland, in the North Atlantic, faces storms and strong winds but rarely experiences earthquakes or typhoons. Japan, however, is seismically active, facing earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions.
Both countries demonstrate remarkable resilience, adapting effectively to their climates.
This concludes our comparison. We invite your thoughts on which climate you prefer and where you’d like to travel.
