Residents in Carlton, Nottinghamshire, should prepare for a sharp drop in temperatures and potential wintry showers starting on Friday, 13 March 2026. According to the Met Office, a band of heavy and gusty rain is expected to clear the area by midnight on Thursday, 12 March, making way for much colder conditions.

The change in weather will bring a significant chill to the region, with “feels like” temperatures expected to dip as low as -1°C on both Friday, 13 March, and Saturday, 14 March. These blustery conditions are likely to follow the heavy rain, creating the possibility of icy patches on the roads and difficult travel conditions for those on higher ground.

Forecasters say that wintry showers, including brief spells of snow over hills, are possible as the colder air moves in. While the start of the weekend will feel particularly cold, the weather is expected to settle into a mix of bright intervals and isolated showers throughout the rest of Saturday and Sunday.

People planning to travel or spend time outdoors are encouraged to check the latest updates and take extra care on the roads. The colder snap follows a period of milder weather, marking a quick shift to more wintry conditions across the local community.
