Our capabilities allow us to support the UK, and the international community, in ways far beyond the weather forecasts that make us a household name. Our skill in turning weather and climate science into services is recognised around the world. As the World Meteorological Organization prepares to embark upon a Global Framework for Climate Services, we will share our knowledge and expertise with others. These case studies provide an insight into what we currently do and the services we can already provide.
