North Lanarkshire.

The blinds are shut so I don't know (Nottingham)

The spring equinox yesterday – when daytime and nighttime are equally long – is considered to be the astronomical start of spring.

But after three weeks of relatively dry and warm conditions, the nation will shiver in a brief cold snap with temperatures falling overnight to -5C (23F) due to a blast of chilly air from the North.

Forecasters warn of heavy rain, especially in the North and along the west coast, with showers likely to last into the weekend         

The Met Office has issued a severe weather warning for ice in Scotland and up to two inches of snow are expected to fall over high ground.

In the South it will be a slightly warmer 1C (34F) but there is a risk of overnight frosts nationwide for the next five days.

A Met Office spokesman said: “A much colder airmass than of late will spread across the north of Britain overnight into Friday, bringing with it the risk of wintry showers.

“Icy patches are expected in places later tonight, especially on upland roads that are wet from showers. These showers will fall as sleet, hail or snow in places, perhaps with more than two inches on some higher routes in the northern half of Scotland.”

 . . .the perfect answer LOL

I've got me blinds and me curtains shut.......I iz oblivlious! 

Perfect way to be

A sunny start to BST!

Here too. Yay!  

South Lanarkshire

 

Bright and sunny, but very hazy round the edges. Bit of a breeze - no idea what the temperature is,

Dry but the sun is trying to get through...feckin freezing and I am off out.

Oxford ... we had been sat in the garden all afternoon, it has been lovely and sunny 

 

The weather is rather puzzling. Last night there seemed to be a hanging mist, the kind you get on Bonfire Night, there also appeared to be a firework smell to the air… all rather strange.

 

Today there has been sun with some sun mist and a chill to the air - still.

 

What we call a sea fret .

Do you know how annoying you are with your Oxford sunshine?  

 

Freezing here and the haar hasn't lifted all day.

Noocarsel - dank

 

Is dank a word?

Yes! Someone from Oxford 'phoned us tonight, with their, "isn't this weather lovely!" Nonsense.

Was it that Rexi one?  

Such an icy wind today, glad to be home .

"Unpleasantly damp and cold" - exactly!!

It wasn't that Rexi one who 'phoned me but. I don 't want to cross her since they are such a violent lot in Oxford. I was watching a documentary tonight about the murder rate, it's horrendous.

 

 

up to 17 in West Cumbria today...sunshine and driving with the car windows open, twas lovely 

Looks like the Norf East lucked out then eh Joe 

Gorgeous weather here today in Cheshire  ...although rain tomorrow . 

After all the days festivities we ventured out on the bikes. North Easterly wind blowing in a sea fret. It was cold.

Overcast, in a word

Anyone hit with this smog? Sounds serious.

 

Rain, sunshine, sahara sand, low cloud but no smog.

I can still see Gib and N Africa so all's good.

Lucky you

It's been damp, dank, and cold here since last Saturday 

same but we also have lots of rain tonight (North Lan)

We haven't got any rain as yet, just had that horrible misty, floaty stuff 

just as bad if not worse than rain

Yep, if it's gonna rain, I want it to get on with it and pee down and get it out the way 

seems it the Sahara smog

We've been ok, TBH Erin. I'm just outside of there but can appreciate that things in other places are hard 

I would wear a face mask to be safe

I/we don't need to, where we live 

A bit hazy round the Tees Valley.

It's actually getting better here. The damp is drying up YAAAAAY! Sun's tryna poke it's head out
