UK long range weather forecast
Unsettled and often windy conditions are expected to continue with areas of rain moving east across the UK interspersed with brighter, showery interludes. Rain is likely to be heaviest across western and northwestern areas, especially over the hills, with the best of any more prolonged drier interludes in the south and east. Hail and thunder are also possible in the showery interludes with snow at times over northern hills. Temperatures will generally be around average, but above in the south. Some brief quieter, colder spells are also possible later in the period, especially in southern and eastern areas, these bringing some overnight frost and patchy fog in places. Elsewhere will continue to see spells of wet and windy weather.
Updated:
A continuation of the unsettled weather is expected at first, with spells of rain and strong winds broken by brighter but showery conditions. The heaviest rain and strongest winds are expected in the northwest, with drier conditions expected in southern and eastern parts. It will perhaps become more generally settled by the middle of March, with more prolonged dry spells possible, especially in the south. Any further spells of wet weather most likely in the north. Temperatures mostly above average, with any cold interludes fairly brief, but with the continued risk of overnight frosts.
