Forecast

The barometric pressure in Sligo is influenced by its proximity to the Atlantic Ocean. This leads to a constantly changing weather pattern. The pressure can fluctuate greatly from day to day.

Sligo is surrounded by mountains to the north and east. The Dartry Mountains and the Ox Mountains have a significant impact on the local weather. They can block or redirect winds from the north and east.

The Atlantic Ocean to the west has a moderating effect on the climate. Moist air from the ocean brings mild temperatures and rainfall to the area. This results in a relatively stable temperature throughout the year.

The landscape around Sligo also leads to a high level of rainfall. The mountains force the moist air to rise, cool, and condense, resulting in frequent rainfall. The rain can be heavy at times, leading to flooding in the area.
