An attribution study of the UK mean temperature in year 2022. Technical summary. Details of the attribution system in Christidis (2021). Nikolaos Christidis, Peter A Stott, Mark McCarthy January 2023. An attribution study was conducted to examine how human influence on the climate increases

in shaping our weather, influencing rainfall, and affecting how we feel day to day. While often overshadowed by temperature in discussions about climate and comfort, humidity is a key factor in our experience of heat and has significant implications for human health, especially in a changing climate

temperatures ranged from 15.8°C in the north to 17.4°C in the east. Met Office Climate Scientist, Dr Amy Doherty, said: "While we’ve not conducted formal climate attribution studies into June 2025’s two heatwaves, past studies have shown it is virtually certain that human influence has increased

it is virtually certain that human influence has increased the occurrence and intensity of extreme heat events such as this.   "Numerous climate attribution studies have shown that human influence increased the chance that specific extreme heat events would occur, such as the summer of 2018 and July 2022

honoured and excited to become the next Chair of the Met Office’s Science Advisory Committee. The Met Office is a truly world-leading organisation for climate and weather science, delivering critical information about atmospheric systems that influence all our lives. “I’m looking forward to getting under

, said: “Everyone can see that we’re experiencing frequent extreme weather, and an increasing number of these damaging events can be shown to have been influenced by human-induced climate change. What is interesting in these survey results is that the UK public are already engaged in reducing

patterns here.   World weather is interconnected, and longer-range forecasts rely on slowly varying aspects of the global weather and climate system, known as climate drivers. There are large scale global drivers which we know have influences on UK weather at this time of year – so what are these doing
