Rain in Wicklow

What the gutters carry in Wicklow

Bray gets about 896 mm of rain a year, November the wettest month. Off a 60 m² roof, that's about 53,760 litres a year for the gutters to carry. Blessington is the wettest of the towns here at 1,014 mm. That's one of the drier parts of Ireland, so a standard half round or square gutter copes on most houses. What fails here is age: brittle plastic and tired joints.
