Advance Possible Snow forecast within 14 Days ahead.  March 2025 Tuesday 18th  /50% 

Forecast updated March Saturday 15th Last week’s forecast was 90% Accurate :- (timing/tracking) 

UPCOMING WEATHER INFO-:  / A kinda settled start with a couple more nights of possible frost before milder air starts to make in roads as wind gradually move to a SE/S direction, but it does look to remain dry until late Thursday/early Friday with some showery rain (That’s if the timing is correct?) as High pressure remains to the E & N so a struggle for any Lows that move over us, as they can’t move any where else, except NW or S!!! Ok lets put this in to a more daily detail below.   Please Note: I do not change these daily ahead forecasts. This gives you an idea of the possible out comes for that day. That is the reason I do a daily update on top of this page through the week. My Tempest is now back up and running so you can if you wish click on the picture and it will take you to my app.

Next Week’s Forecast Starting March Sunday 16th           

Sunday / A dry day expected with good sunny spells as cloud looks to be well scattered, wind light to moderate NE/E, Temp 8/3/-1ºC evening dry with a frost developing in places at first, but possible cloud looks to increase that may lift temperatures!!!

Monday / A generally dry day expected with sunny spells, but more in the way of cloud could be a problem in places, wind light to moderate locally fresh E, Temp 9/5/2ºC evening dry with just the possibility of a frost developing in places where skies remain clear of cloud for lengthy periods!!!

Tuesday / A dry day expected with abundance in cloud cover at times, sunny spells throughout the day, wind moderate to fresh E/SE, Temp 11/7/4ºC evening dry with plenty of cloud about at times!!!

Wednesday / A generally dry day expected with sunny spells, possible cloud with be a nuisance in places, wind light to moderate locally fresh SE, Temp 11/6ºC evening generally dry with cloud increasing!!! 

*Thursday / Generally a dry expected with sunny spells but these will become as the day progress as cloud starts to increase, wind light to moderate locally fresh/strong E/SE/S, Temp 11/7ºC evening cloud continuing to increase with possible showery rain/drizzle moving over later!!!

*Friday / A generally cloudy day expected with rain, some of which could be heavy in places, just possible of this turning showery as sunny glimpses develops as cloud breaks, wind light to moderate locally fresh E becoming variable S, Temp 10/7ºC evening scattered showers!!!

Confidence 85%. / Not a safe bet!!! As we have High pressure to the E and N and it’s these that can change everything. So we have a Low pressure system fixed to the SW that can’t move due those two high pressure cells. Slightly milder for the week but won’t feel like in the wind, but at least it’s a break from the frosty mornings. Ok what is the outlook? Well on current model runs it looks like an unsettled week with that Low to the SW starting to move N/E introducing more rain/showers and possibly turning colder towards the end of the forecast!!! Whatever the weather you have a good week!!!  Remember any Showers/Thunderstorms forecasted, some places will not get them and will remain dry.

Long Range Weather Forecasts (Spring Forecast being Generated)

Mar:/ The first month of the Meteorological Spring. This month looking very changeable with generally dry/cold spells to start with, even some possible snow in places, but the battle of the air masses continues as the PV does some big shape shifting, there is indications of big swings in temperatures as we head through the rest of the month with frosts and possible snow, and this all depends on the PV SSW. The beast from the east is possible in some of the runs, but now with the sun rising higher in the sky the impact of very cold conditions doesn’t seem likely!!! Rainfall average to slightly below, Temperature average to slightly below. Confidence 25% correctness for the month so far 15%. Issued Feb 22nd 2025.
