Climate change is a large-scale, long-term shift in Earth’s weather patterns, leading to increasing temperatures, rising sea levels and changes in nature. www.metoffice.gov.uk | 4 © Crown

(@metoffice) March 27, 2022 Met Office Chief Meteorologist Neil Armstrong said, “We’re going to be seeing a marked shift in the weather for the UK in the coming week as the warm weather is displaced south.   “Temperatures will drop as cold air sweeps south with single figure maxima for most places from

of 1.09 °C, and was the warmest five-year period on record. These temperatures are consistent with continued high levels of atmospheric greenhouse gases. Dr Doug Smith is a Met Office fellow and expert on decadal prediction. He said: “The latest five-year forecast suggests continued warming, consistent

of the weekend. After a chilly start, the day will begin with clear skies and plenty of sunshine. As the day progresses, cloud cover will increase from the west, with mostly light winds but these are expected to pick up later in the day. Temperatures will climb into the low 20s Celsius, making for a warm

climate impacts is a new feature. A team of Met Office scientists have been working with peer scientists on the Working Group I report: Dr Matt Palmer was a lead author for the chapter on Energy Budget and Climate Sensitivity. He said: “We now have a clearer picture of the warming that is occurring

As the UK heads into the warmer months, the likelihood of thunderstorms increases. While these dramatic weather events can be incredible to watch, they also bring a range of hazards, such as lightning strikes, flash flooding, power outages, and travel disruption. In this article, we'll look at what
