Residents in Welwyn Garden City, Hertfordshire, can expect a sharp drop in temperature from Wednesday 25 March 2026 as a cold front moves into the area. The Met Office has forecast daytime highs of 8 degrees Celsius, which is a significant decrease from the 14 degrees Celsius expected on Tuesday.

Strong north-west winds with gusts reaching 39mph will make conditions feel much colder than the recorded temperature. Forecasters expect the “feels like” temperature to drop to -3 degrees Celsius during Wednesday night.

According to Met Office Chief Forecaster Steve Willington, the shift to a cooler weather pattern is typical for this time of year. While northern parts of the country may see hill snow, Welwyn Garden City is expected to experience sunshine alongside scattered heavy showers.

This cold spell follows a period of unseasonably warm weather that recently brought the hottest day of the year so far to the United Kingdom. Conditions are expected to become drier on Thursday with winds easing, though there is a risk of frost overnight as temperatures stay low.
