Climate change will have an increasing impact on our lives, including the sport we love to watch.

already seen aspects such as extreme heat, and the worse is yet to come. “The UK has not recorded temperatures of more than 38.7 °C. However, our climate projections show temperatures of 40.0 °C or more are possible at Wimbledon even during future tournaments, posing considerable challenges

Learn about the climate drivers that influence seasonal forecasts and the impacts they can have on UK and global weather.

Seasonal forecasts rely on aspects of the global weather and climate system that are predictable. These are known as climate drivers and include tropical sea-surface temperatures and pressure patterns over the North Atlantic. The predictable effects of climate drivers act alongside inherently
