Following the recent bout of mild conditions, Met Office forecasters have provided an overview of what to expect for March amid reports of an Arctic Blast set to hit the country. As we head into the spring, it is believed that windy conditions, cold temperatures and even snow could be on their way due to the phenomenon of a Sudden Stratospheric Warming (SSW).
The UK's leading meteorologists said there has been an SSW where the effects can take three weeks to impact on the UK and that colder weather is more likely. However it's not been confirmed if another 'Beast from the East' could be on the way.
According to the latest forecast for Nottinghamshire, rainy conditions are expected during the coming week. The Met Office has predicted that temperatures more widely across the East Midlands are unlikely to top 5C over the next seven days, with showers forecast.
