FROM storms to sports, the Google Year in Search results have revealed the moments that captured Ireland's attention in 2025.

For a country obsessed with weather, it's no surprise that the record-breaking Storm Eowyn was the most searched term of the year.

The storm, which hit Ireland in January, was one of the most powerful and widespread wind events here since the 1800s.

People also turned to Google to find out how to say the storm's name, with 'How to pronounce Eowyn' being the third most popular 'How to' search term.

Asking Google questions is an everyday occurrence for most people.

In a year when Ireland welcomed a new president for the first time in 14 years, the election also had a big impact on the most searched lists.
