saw the start of a slow thaw. Burst water pipes then became a problem with Northern Ireland worst affected - a week of sub-zero temperatures and the subsequent thaw resulted in some 40,000 homes and businesses being without mains water.

and the Isle of Wight. Storm Ciarán exacerbated existing flooding problems with many rivers bursting their banks. At West Bay in Dorset, a section of cliff collapsed into the sea. In Surrey, storm Ciarán caused a power outage at three water treatment plants leaving thousands without a water supply

on observation of the clouds and stars and the behaviour of wild birds to alert them to weather-related hazards and to judge the quality of fishing conditions. They also monitor surface currents in the lake, measuring them with floaters, to determine where fishing conditions are likely to be best. Commonly

January 2020 – The Met Office participates in a field campaign on Clouds, Circulation and Climate Sensitivity out of the Caribbean island of Barbados with UK, European and American partners.

From 20th of January to 20th of February 2020 the observational field campaign EUREC4A (Elucidating the role of clouds-circulation coupling in climate) will take place, with operations based out of the Caribbean island of Barbados (Fig 1). EUREC4A is a European initiative that, together

June, largely focussed in the Laptev, and later the East Siberian, Sea. This was likely caused by prolonged warm southerly winds from Siberia associated with the notable Siberian heatwave (see also July briefing). In the first three weeks of July two more notable bursts of warm advection from Siberia

frequencies, which pass through the ionosphere. During solar flares the intense burst of radiation interferes with the ionosphere, absorbing HF communications signals and causing radio blackouts on the sun-lit side of the Earth. During geomagnetic and solar radiation storms the ionosphere is modified

as an invasive species which produces pollen after pollen burst. Can we link pollen bursts to people visiting GP surgeries? We should do more on phenology modelling to improve links to health warnings What sort of public health interventions can be done for pollen? People need to know what pollen

The 1st Satellite Observations of Volcanic Clouds Conference (SOVCC) will take place virtually (on Microsoft Teams) during the afternoon (UTC) of 7th-9th (Wednesday-Friday) June 2023.

This conference has been set up by an international collaboration of scientists from the Met Office, University of Reading, the Convective and Volcanic Clouds (CVC) training school organising group, and several other institutions. Conference goals (Re-)connect the entire community of experts
