This March is proving to be one of the coldest on record, especially the daytime temperatures, with huge contrasts with last year. Full details will be available later.

The outlook between now & Easter has little positive to disclose. Temperatures will remain well below the average for March, indeed, somewhat below the average for January, typically reaching around 2 to 4 each day. Overnight will be close to zero, with frost forming where cloud breaks allow.There will be rather frequent snow flurries & even a few heavier snow showers, though amounts actually accumulating are likely to be small at normal altitudes. Winds will continue to blow from an easterly quarter, but will be much lighter than last weekend. With time, there may be more emphasis on some dry spells, with snow featuring rather less than at present.
