Galway's weather is influenced by its location near the Atlantic Ocean, which causes frequent changes in barometric pressure. Low-pressure systems move in from the ocean, bringing rain and wind. High-pressure systems bring dry and calm weather.
Galway's low elevation and proximity to the ocean mean that atmospheric pressure changes quickly. The surrounding landscape of mountains and hills can also affect local pressure patterns. This leads to varying weather conditions throughout the city.
