Started with the only really notable rain of the month for some... showery I suppose.

Strong high pressure builds up from the S and SW.

Drifts into Europe but further ridging from the SW keeps the UK dry but with a chilly continental feed at the surface.

A northerly!
...but pressure rises rapidly from the west and kills off the precipitation.

High and dry again two days after that northerly toppler.

Reminds me of April 2011.

Another continental feed with a fetch from a long way south.

Very persistent this time!

Two days into March, a change finally gets underway.

It takes a whole week to make much progress though!

The first notable storm in many weeks finally arrives.
It must have been an extraordinarily useable period of later winter weather. If TWO had been around, that northerly toppler in February would have been the only real topic of discussion that month
