The latest report covering the climate of the UK – published today [Friday 31 July ]- reveals that the most recent decade (2010-2019) has been on average 0.9° C warmer across the UK than the period 1961-1990, with 2019 being 1.1° C above the 1961-1990 long-term average. 2019 sets four UK high
The influence of climate change on severe weather Author: Prof Paul Davies (Met Office Chief Meteorologist) 18 January 2024 The Met Office’s dedicated team looking at weather and climate extremes has collated the latest published academic literature on severe weather in the UK in the context of our

next as the Sun reaches solar maximum phase? Author: Press Office 31 October 2024 We take an in-depth look at how the Sun’s solar cycle will influence auroral displays. Earlier this month, NASA, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the International Solar Cycle Prediction
know drive marine heatwaves. “These conditions coincided with a weak northeasterly airflow, which allowed the North Sea temperatures to influence UK land. By using our peer reviewed method, we can calculate this influence to be +0.5°C averaged over the whole month.” In our latest episode of Climate

The auroras on Earth, which are most commonly seen over high polar latitudes but can often spread south to be visible over parts of the UK, are chiefly influenced by geomagnetic storms which originate from activity on the Sun.

High pressure will influence the UK’s weather this weekend, but what does that mean for the thousands of people running the TCS London Marathon?
Office Meteorologist and Presenter Alex Deakin said: “If you’ve been training hard for the London Marathon, you’ve probably been training in the rain and under the influence of low pressure. Our weather patterns are shifting this weekend and high pressure moving in will bring many of us a fine day
“In a recent study we found that the likelihood of extremely hot days in the UK has been increasing and will continue to do so during the course of the century, with the most extreme temperatures expected to be observed in the southeast of England. “Climate change has already influenced the likelihood
