It was warm in the south-east with Writtle (Essex

Moist air from the subtropical Atlantic is being drawn northwards by the storm and current forecasts suggest 200
of the timing of natural events in relation to climate. He said: “The natural world is responding to the changes we are witnessing within our own climate. “A wide-ranging study published in 2022 showed an alarming discovery. Comparing two periods from 1753 to 1986 and 1987 to 2019 researchers found

the ground, which in turn heats the air above, and this warm air then rises. As it rises, it cools and expands, forming clouds when the air has cooled to the dew point and the moisture (if present) condenses. These ‘fair weather clouds’, with flat bottoms and fluffy white tops form a clear marker
of climates including semi-arid, warm and cold desert, temperate, tropical savanna, subtropical and oceanic. Situated at the junction of the South Atlantic, Indian and Southern Oceans, variability in sea surface temperatures around the coastlines influences the region’s climate. Elevations above ~700m

are not just interested in the surface temperature of the lake. They also want to know about the temperature gradient beneath the surface. A warm current below the surface of the lake sometimes causes fish to rot in the nets before they can be harvested. Nile perch fishermen hang their drift nets
