The UK is bracing for another spell of freezing weather in March, as the latest maps show widespread snowfall across the country.
After significant snowfall in the first two months of the year, more snow is predicted to hit the nation. The snowfall is projected to start on Wednesday, March 4, at midnight and last for 18 hours until 6pm.
According to forecasts from WXCHARTS, parts of southern England and the Midlands will remain dry initially. However, areas like Nottingham, Stoke-on-Trent, Manchester, Blackpool, Hull, and the Cairngorms National Park are expected to receive snow. By 6am, temperatures will drop significantly across the country.
Weather reports suggest that temperatures will hover around -1C, with the coldest spot in the Cairngorms National Park reaching -5C. By 6pm, snowfall is expected to cover Scotland, with accumulations of up to 10cm on the ground.
Northern Ireland will escape the snow, while parts of North Wales will see some snowfall. In England, snow is likely to be concentrated in the north, with Hull and Yorkshire experiencing the heaviest snow showers.
The Met Office’s forecast indicates changing weather patterns with occasional rain and showers, especially in western regions. Strong winds may also occur, predominantly in the west. Temperatures are expected to be near or above average, though a slight cooling trend is possible around the month’s transition. Towards the end of the period, southeastern regions might see drier conditions while the northwest remains wet.
