March may be the beginning of meteorological spring to some but it feels like winter is still very much around us.
After a dry and mild February, forecasters have said temperatures are likely to remain colder than usual.
The Met Office confirmed that parts of the country, particularly northern and eastern regions, had an increased chance of snow, frost and fog in the coming weeks. The likelihood of wintry showers at the beginning of the month is low but as March progresses, temperatures are more likely to drop.
