There was significant flooding in North Wales at Llanrwst in the Conwy valley. However, the worst affected

. The Brize Norton TAF is encouraging, but also note Birmingham’s best cloud conditions of scattered at 1000ft. This is expected to increase and lower to become broken at 900ft at times. This is probably because Brize Norton is slightly protected in the Thames Valley while Birmingham (and, importantly

grid length and also for possible future operational implementation. Investigate the representation of convection in the model in more extreme situations than usually found in the UK (e.g. supercells on the US Great Plains). Investigate the potential benefits of coupling high resolution atmospheric models to ocean, wave and hydrology models. Model other non-convective mesoscale phenomena at high resolution (e.g. drainage flows in valleys, fog etc.)
