As March approaches, we might want to hold off on fully embracing Spring and packing up our winter coats just yet.

       New weather maps by WX Charts, which were created using Metdesk data, predict an icy start to the month with snow predicted to hit several counties across the UK.

       The map shows up to 10cm of snow per hour in some areas of the UK on March 9.

       The snow is set to hit as far north as Wick and as far south as Manchester.

       Counties that may be affected by the snow include Perth and Kinross, Argyll and Bute, and Stirling as well as Northumberland, Cumbria and Durham.

       The Met Office's forecast for March 3 - 12, states: "A split in weather conditions is likely across the UK during early March. Northwestern areas will see bouts of rain and stronger winds at times, as Atlantic weather systems arrive from the west.

       "These spells of wet and windy weather will move southeast to some degree.

       "However, high pressure is likely to have more influence across the south of the UK, at least at first. Here, there should be a good deal of fine/dry weather during early March with a chance of night frosts and morning fog patches.

       "Through this period, there is an increasing chance of unsettled conditions becoming more widely dominant across the UK. Temperatures generally around or a bit above average, notwithstanding some chilly nights."
