, consequently valid pre-flight briefing documentation still needs to be obtained for each flight. The Charts Occurrence of LVPs (Low Visibility Procedures) - When the cloud base and/or surface visibility fall below certain limits (for example 1,500 m for visibility and 300 ft for cloud*), the operating
a host of advances (as detailed in a peer reviewed paper) which deliver a marked improvement compared to previous models. For example, while the Met Office’s highly regarded previous generation model HadGEM2-ES is considered a world leader in its representation of clouds, the new models include
will be the cloudiest locations. While Wednesday itself will be a largely fine and dry day for much of the UK, with just the southwest of England, Northern Ireland and western Wales perhaps under cloud, heavy, thundery showers will move in through the evening and overnight from the southwest. Some

Through Friday high pressure will remain dominant across the UK, bringing another day of settled weather with plenty of warm sunshine across the country. It will be a warmer day than yesterday due to a reduction in cloud cover, especially in the far east and northeast where there will be less
