Using Lamb circulation categories, daily precipitation receipt for 34 Irish sites are examined for the period since 1941.Marked gradients are apparent with particular trajectories, and the influence of ocean surface temperatures and topography is described.Changes in the frequency of occurrence of synoptic types, particularly westerly and cyclonic categories, are shown to have implications for the national distribution of precipitation and also for particular areas in terms of annual receipt
