i have run this jacket under the kitchen sink (i know, but i was excited about getting it) anyway NO water got through at all, it just beaded up and ran off, so i dont know how much more waterproof it can get, i just havent got to test it in the brutal erie winter yet

The STH is really designed as a ski jacket. For a climate like Ireland, I would probably look for something that is seam sealed and waterproof it you run into extended rain. Here are a few suggestions: Venture Jacket, Prophecy Jacket, Circadian Jacket. None of these jackets are insulated, so I would definitely look into a insulating layer.

That jacket is fine, but make sure you layer underneath. Maybe a marmot powerstretch fleece or The North Face Omen.
