As the days get longer, we expect warmer weather to come with it - but this spring has felt like one long winter, with the Met Office describing it as 'notably dull'.
England was doused with 104% more rain than usual and the UK had a"duller than average" month in terms of sunshine hours.
Scotland was brighter by contrast - its sunshine hours were closer to average and rainfall was only up 4%."Little in the way of consistent warmth" was the Met Office's way of putting it, with wintry showers and a cold snap at the end of the month. There was a brief reprieve mid-month before the winter coats made a reappearance.The global weather patterns give us an indication, according to Met Office spokesperson Stephen Dixon.
