In terms of tropical storm numbers only 2006 has recorded 9 or fewer tropical storms in the last decade (9 storms were recorded in the July to November period 2006). There is good evidence that relatively

right, this tells us how many more data points we have left to collect. As we drive over the grid boxes that contain ash cloud (data points) and take an observation, the score decreases. We must drive over all the data points for this score to go down to zero. Only then are we able to send our data

Improving predictions of tropical cyclones in Southeast Asia WCSSP Southeast Asia Tropical cyclones are amongst the most powerful and destructive weather systems on earth. Each year 80 to 100 develop over tropical oceans around the world, some of which make landfall and cause considerable damage

Meteorologist Aidan McGivern said: “High pressure sat over the UK for the first two weeks of April as well as the last week, with low pressure bringing some unsettled weather in the middle. This has meant temperatures have been above average, and rainfall, for most, has been below. “The last week of April has

These observations are also essential for both local and global weather forecasting. While most WMO member
