From snow and ice to heavy rain and sunny spells, this month's weather has been as mad as a March hare - WeatherCee explains why ❄️⛄️☀️🌦
This month the saying has rung especially true as the weather has been all over the place - to put it mildly.
Then the rains came, with a warning of heavy downpours from the Met Office in the middle of the month. This year the spring equinox was the following day, 20 March, when the sun sits directly over the Earth's equator as it heads northward. The sun is strengthening significantly, the oceans are slowly warming and the jet stream is usually further north, which influences where our air is coming from.With the fierce changes in weather, there is often some truth in a saying often used in reference to March: "In like a lion, out like a lamb."
Nature has a habit of redressing the balance and the exceptional mildness of February has been countered by much colder conditions during the first half of March, with average temperatures around 2.5C below average.
