and the season in question. Where links exist, and where enough historical data can be identified, this technique can be used to provide reliable forecasts for some parts of the world. For example, there is a reliable connection between the March-May rainfall in North-East Brazil and the sea surface

on the Atlantic coast, monitors clean westerly air that has travelled across the North Atlantic Ocean. However, when the winds are easterly, Mace Head receives substantial regional scale pollution in air that has travelled from the industrial regions of Europe. The site is therefore uniquely situated to record
nationally and internationally. Plausible, but unprecedented June-July-August conditions associated with national-scale severe water stress events which would threaten maize crops over North America and Asia. The colour shading shows the 200 hPa geopotential height anomalies. Red areas indicate areas
. The analysis was further expanded by also including data from the two GAUGE stations, Heathfield (HFD) (in Sussex) and Bilsdale (BLD) (in North Yorkshire), in a 6-site inversion. The uncertainty reduction for England in the 6-site network (2014 only) is very similar to the 4 UK DECC network inversion
was considered the most severe storm to hit the Irish Sea in the 19th century. The storm depression was first noted in the Bay of Biscay near Cape Finisterre on 24–25 October and the centre progressed northwards over Britain from Cornwall to the Yorkshire coast. The strongest winds in the system developed
disruption, 150 schools closing, and power lost to 40,000 homes, some for a period of up to 48 hours. March saw three Amber warnings for snow access the Pennines, North Wales and the East of Northern Ireland seeing major travel disruption, 30,000 properties without power in Yorkshire and Derbyshire
