) at the University of Reading. He joined the Met Office as a data assimilation scientist in 2009. Lee developed a system for the direct assimilation of radar reflectivity data from the Met Office weather radar network in 4D-Var, which is now operational in the UKV. As the Unified Model is run at higher resolutions

further investigation confirms the reading is robust and reliable. An operational meteorologist will often visit the site as part of the evidence gathering process. Once a decision has been made on whether all the necessary criteria has been met, only then is it added to the UK’s official weather
