Greater Manchester 7-day weather forecast as temperatures set to drastically drop

Temperatures are set to drop over the next week — as a biting cold will roll into the city-region in around seven days time.

The mercury is set to dip below freezing on Tuesday (March 7), with Mancs waking up to temperatures well below freezing. Oldhamers and Tameside residents will have it particularly bad, seeing -3C on the thermostat.

It should be largely dry, though. The Met Office is predicting that dark clouds will roll in, and there’s a small chance of rain on Sunday evening.
