spells. Chance of cloud-free hill tops above 700m: 40% at first, improving 80% during the morning. Low cloud and visibility: Misty at first with patches of poor visibility. Also extensive cloud cover down around 600 to 700m. Visibility soon becoming good with clouds lifting and breaking up during

turning to showers throughout the day. The far south of England will see sporadic rain and showers dying out, making way for sunny spells. By Monday night, the showers and thunderstorms will subside, leading to clear spells for many areas. However, patchy low cloud and isolated fog may develop

laser pulses transmitted at one or more given wavelengths (UV, visible or IR). Time-height plots of backscatter intensity produced from measurements can then be used to interpret the vertical profile of the atmosphere at each point where an instrument is located. However low cloud and fog will prevent

with this is the clouds are white and snow on the ground is white, so it can be hard to tell them apart. The second image aims to solve this problem. It uses five channels in the near-infra-red part of the spectrum to construct an image in which the snow can be differentiated from the cloud. Snow lying

-west stayed mainly dry. Most places had fewer showers on the 2nd, but showers became more frequent in the north-east from early afternoon. Cloud, mist and fog with light rain spread across the south and parts of the Midlands on the 3rd, with sunshine and showers in the north, the showers turning

Herzog, this project aims to identify and quantify the dynamical processes associated with individual clouds that need to be considered in convective parametrizations. 3. Mass flux and beyond Led by Bob Plant, this project will provide a critical examination of parametrization methods that are based

If you are interested in clouds or thunderstorms, UK climate or weather extremes, this series of factsheets clearly describes and illustrates the processes involved.

These factsheets clearly describe and illustrate the processes involved in global weather and climate, providing the most up-to-date answers and information. 1. Clouds The current classification of clouds is based upon those originated by Luke Howard (1772-1864), a London pharmacist and amateur
