An Amber warning has been issued valid until 12 noon today, although across the southern part of the warning area the snow has now begun to turn to rain at low levels. Therefore the worst of the conditions from now on look like being across the higher parts, just north of the Forth-Clyde valley

of malaria in highland areas that are currently not suitable for transmission, and increased Rift Valley Fever. • Increasing temperature extremes will result in more days of the year exceeding critical heat-health thresholds. Temperatures above 31°C are related to increased mortality and risks

. In the Highlands, winds are much lighter and generally directed along valleys. For example, at Aviemore south-westerly winds are very dominant, influenced by the Spey valley. Back to top Location map Last updated: 10 October 2016 Back to top © Crown Copyright

on the North Downs and Weald; these high minimum temperatures would have been associated with a temperature inversion as cooler air drained into the valleys overnight. The spell of hot weather was in marked contrast to much colder conditions earlier in the month; daily maximum temperatures on 12 April 2018

node strength (indicating donor and receptor countries).  (B) Spore transmission frequencies along principal migration routes in the Rift Valley zone for the scenario of large outbreaks.     The results highlight the role of Yemen as a potential ‘stepping stone’ for the transmission of the disease

in the upland areas, such as the South Pennines. Wind – Kirklees is mainly sheltered from prevailing westerly winds by the South Pennines. Slack winds can cause fog formation in the Colne valley, while slight easterly winds can blow fog in from the Humberhead Levels. Scale: Temperature difference in o C

(9.5 to 9.9 °C) compared to cooler inland areas (8.0 °C and 9.4°C). July and August are the warmest months in the region with mean daily maxima reaching up to 19 °C in southern Dumfries and Galloway and the Clyde valley. These may be compared with 23.5 °C in the London area. Instances of extreme high

are the warmest months in the region with mean daily maxima reaching up to 19 °C in southern Dumfries and Galloway and the Clyde valley. These may be compared with 23.5 °C in the London area. Instances of extreme high temperatures are rare. Average annual rainfall totals range from less than 1000 mm

temperatures exceed 22°C. Large-scale frost hollows may occur within river valleys in the western parts of the Midlands in winter. The lowest temperature recorded for England (-26.1° C) occurred in Newport (Shropshire) in 1982. Rates of rainfall across the Midlands are variable. Rainfall rates are highest
