In spring (February to April), the average highest temperatures range from 46 to 54°F, with April considered particularly pleasant. In summer (May to July), the averages for highest temperatures are between 64 and 68°F.
The warmest months, July and August, get about 18 hours of daylight and it gets dark only after 11pm. Hence the well-worn phrase in Ireland; "sure there's a grand stretch in the evenings".

And so in Ireland spring traditionally begins not in March, but on the 1st of February with Lá Feabhra (February Day), also known as St. Brigid's Day; summer begins with Lá Bealtaine (May Day); autumn begins on the 1st of August with Lá Lúnasa; while winter arrives in November with Lá Samhna (November Day).Feb 6, 2011
