Dunnockshaw Community Woodland, Rossendale, Lancashire Provisional Met Office rainfall figures for March indicate that the month is likely to be one of the driest on record, even with rain falling over recent days. The UK average rainfall total from 1 to 29 March was 39.1 mm - 41% of the long-term average for the whole of the month which is 95.9 mm. This provisional figure makes it the driest March since 1953 when 41.6 mm of rain was recorded. However, this month's figure will increase following the rain which has fallen over the last few days. England and Wales were particularly dry, with provisional figures suggesting the month could be amongst the driest in the past 100 years. Met Office
