Scotland generally has more rainfall than Ireland. The western highlands of Scotland are among the wettest places in Europe, receiving annual rainfall up to 4,577 mm (180.2 in), while some parts of Ireland can see annual totals exceeding 3,000 mm[1][2].

In terms of averages, Scotland receives the highest annual volume of rain in the United Kingdom, whereas rainfall patterns in Ireland can vary significantly, with the west coast receiving more rain than the east. Therefore, while both countries have rainy reputations, Scotland typically has a higher overall rainfall[2][4].
