After a very unsettled but mild winter things should start
to settle down and become drier during March. The tendency for
settled, drier than average weather is likely to dominate the
first half of spring. From mid-April onwards it may turn
slightly more unsettled though remaining warmer than average. As
with any other forecast, short cold spells cannot be ruled out
but these should be few and far between. The potential for very
warm weather becomes more likely towards the end of April and
into May (no surprises there). |

March:
|
Settled weather dominating
the first half of the month then becoming slightly less settled
but still with plenty of dry and sunny weather. Overall a warm,
dry and sunny month. |
