Hyperthermia is an elevation of body temperature over the temperature set point, due to either too much heat production or not enough heat loss. [ 1 ] [ 7 ] Hyperthermia is thus not considered fever. [ 7 ] : 103 [ 40 ] Hyperthermia should not be confused with hyperpyrexia (which is a very high fever).
This is a list of cities by average temperature (monthly and yearly). The temperatures listed are averages of the daily highs and lows. Thus, the actual daytime temperature in a given month may be considerably higher than the temperature listed here, depending on how large the difference between daily highs and lows is.

The lowest temperature was –19.1 °C at Markree Castle on 16 January 1881. [9] Six of the warmest ten years in Ireland have occurred since 1990. [10] Due to climate change, it is estimated that the temperatures will rise everywhere by up to 3.4 degrees by the end of the century. [11] Extreme heat and cold are both rare throughout the country.
