Thursday 7-3-19

Low pressure will be over or close to the UK over the next 7 days.

The day starts off with rain, cloud & strong winds through much of central and eastern Scotland (snow on hills), northern England, north Wales and the north Midlands. Rain more patchy in Northern Ireland, somewhat drier in the far south of England and Wales. The afternoon sees more rain in eastern and southern Scotland as well as northern England and Wales. A few showers in Northern Ireland. A windy afternoon for much of the UK and feeling cold in the wind. Highs of 10C/50F


Heads up for this weekend plus severe weather likely next week!

Weekend very windy with gales in places snow over high ground.

As we go in to next week we have a real headache around midweek very cold will follow a deep depression when winds are likely to reach 80 mph any rain is likely to turn to snow later especially on high ground above 600ft but not exclusively with all that wind severe drifting is likely, so if you are a hill farmer please take note. This is by no means set in stone but my advice is to keep up with the weather updates here or at my website @metjeffuk.com




Whatever your weather enjoy it!

Bring it on. Winter never really happened yet.
As well to get it over and done with now than in a months time.

The average temp has only been 1deg more and we have had more rain fall than winter 2017/18 so quite happy for it to sod off to some nice dry weather

Must have been a different winter down with you.
Been the odd frost but no snow and only a couple of windy days here so far.
Not had much by way of rain all winter until a couple of days ago and never had my winter jacket rather than bodywarmer on at all which is a first.
