• Looking back on a storm-laden season

  that is clear from observations is that there’s big variability year-to-year in the number and intensity of storms that impact the UK.  In our observational records, it’s hard to detect any trend one way or the other in terms of number and intensity of low-pressure systems that cross the UK. “While our climate
