and March. Otherwise, above normal temperatures were experienced for most areas. Outlook: Warmer than normal conditions are likely or very likely across most areas increasing the risk of heatwaves and heat-related impacts. The main exception over parts of India where below normal is likely due

October 2020 The averaging period used for the following assessment was 1981-2010. October began very unsettled, with Storm Alex bringing rain and strong winds to much of England and Wales on the 2nd, and a very wet day followed for much of the UK on the 3rd. From the 4th to 13th it remained

Unusual conditions in the tropics and stratosphere gave rise to the very wet winter of 2013-14, in which there was damaging flooding in many parts of England.

to the very wet weather. Over the course of a season, even influences from the other side of the globe can change the weather experienced in the UK.   New study published Today, in a study published in the journal Environmental Research Letters, a team of Met Office and University of Oxford scientists

country in the future. The Met Office has been very helpful throughout the year that I have been studying at Reading. They generously sponsored me and my colleagues for the PRECIS (Providing REgional Climates for Impacts Studies) training and also organised forecasting training for all MSc students

Wednesday will bring sunny and very warm conditions to England, Wales, and southern Scotland. Temperatures are expected to soar, with highs ranging from 24-26°C and potentially reaching 27-28°C in central, southern, and eastern parts of the UK. Northern Ireland and southern Scotland will also enjoy

Volcanic Ash – 1315 UTC annotated satellite image Issued 1330 UTC on Tue 13 Dec 2016 LOW CONFIDENCE- Eruption site and downwind plume obscured by thick meteorological cloud layers. Further, due to very bad weather conditions the data from the radar is not very clear. IMO estimate the plume height to still be around 12KM. © Crown copyright Met Office

Current Status: MENA, the Caribbean and British Overseas Territories have seen near normal to below normal over the last three months. Parts of Iraq have been very dry in March. Outlook: For the next three months, conditions are likely to be drier than normal for much of the Middle East, Tunisia

been hot over the past three months. Conditions more variable across the MENA. Hot conditions were observed across much of North Africa (away from the northwest) and in the Levant in June. Otherwise, temperatures were normal. Outlook: Warmer than normal conditions are very likely, increasing

Summary Arctic sea ice extent is currently the lowest on record for the time of year, following the fastest two-week rate of ice loss on record. The record low extent was driven by rapid ice loss in the seas north of Siberia, associated with southerly winds and very mild conditions during June

infrastructure under huge pressure. In this new study we look to see if the changes to our daily lives over the last 12 months have had an effect on the climate. On a global scale, the new study by Jones et al. (2021) (which is also the subject of a Research Spotlight in EOS) finds very little changes
