during May. Below average temperatures for much of March and the first half of April meant a delayed start to the growing season, though the warmth of April 18th-21st was a sharp contrast. Although most areas had a drier May, spring rainfall totals were above average for eastern, central and southern

: “The Easter period will bring a variety of weather with a fair amount of sunshine, especially in the west. Cold winds and showers are more likely in the east, with cloudy and wet conditions in the south. Snow will affect some of us on Monday, enough to cause disruption to travel plans as people return from

seen temperatures close to average overall, with both March and April providing a warm start to the season. The weather has been settled, with high pressure dominant for most of both months. March began with temperatures below average, but warm spells later in the month raised the mean temperature

as the major driver of the timing, magnitude, and variability of wet-season rainfall and its extremes to access the impact on the water resources. Here, our focus is to look for models that demonstrate reasonable skills in simulating rainfall patterns over the study region as well as the wider Indian

of the timing, magnitude, and variability of wet-season rainfall and its extremes to access the impact on the water resources. Here, our focus is to look for models that demonstrate reasonable skills in simulating rainfall patterns over the study region as well as the wider Indian subcontinent. We assessed

amounts have varied throughout the month, with mild and wet weather interrupted by a cold and dry spell from the second week of January, albeit with some significant snow for northern areas of the UK. Overall, this means that the average mean temperature for the UK for January 2024 is near average

decrease is about 15%. However, some basins in south and east Asia are projected to see increased flow in all simulations. Flows in the Ganges increase by up to 90% at 1.5°C and by up to 130% at 2°C. Figure 2. Range of projected changes in flow in major river basins at 2°C and 1.5°C global warming

The heaviest rain is expected to be across Wales on Wednesday, with some central and southern parts of England and Wales potentially having a very wet day on Friday.  Further north, there will be some sunshine, but also some showers, which will turn heavier, more frequent later in the week

assessment report (AR5) as one of the most important risks facing coastal nations and communities. The low-lying islands and densely populated coastal areas of South Asia are vulnerable to the impacts of sea-level rise, such as coastal erosion and increased inundation from tropical cyclone storm surges

Spring 2025 has broken historical climate records, marking an unprecedented season of warmth and sunshine across the UK, according to provisional Met Office statistics.

The UK, and all four nations, have all recorded their warmest spring for mean temperature since the series began in 1884, surpassing the previous record from 2024. This season also outshone the rest, claiming the title of sunniest spring on record for the UK, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales
