The UKCR climate services upscaling approach This approach includes a series of steps for climate service providers to follow when planning their upscaling. These steps consist of activities, discussion topics, and questionnaires. Further information and a detailed toolkit is available on the Met

, it by no means guarantees that this ranking will be the same by the time we get to the end of the year. The figure will be highly dependent on the regimes that influence the UK’s weather through October, November and December. The UK’s September climate statistics were published earlier this week

phenomena outside the UK. Understanding the drivers behind weather in the UK There are several interconnected global weather and climate systems, known as global drivers, that have the potential to influence the weather we see here in the UK in the next three months.

the effect of human influence on the occurrence of UK annual mean temperatures exceeding those observed in 2023. While 2023 did not exceed the record set in 2022 (Christidis et al., 2023) it came very close. We provide estimates for the exceedance probability of similar events in the climate

The temperature data published by the WMO - in their provisional 2021 State of the Global Climate report - shows that the period 2002-2021 reached an average of 1.01°C ±0.12 °C. For context, the Paris Agreement aims to limit global warming to well below 2.0 °C, preferably to 1.5 °C. A global

The future influence of climate change on tropical cyclones is likely to vary by region, but the specific characteristics of the changes
