Now another blast of cold is expected across the nation and the country could remain cold and wintery up until the second half of April! The good news for farmers is that the worst of weather conditions have gone. Farmers, throughout the UK, have been praised for their efforts to help stranded motorists and clear roads after the “Beasts of the East”.
