Attribution initiative: “This study shows again just how much of a game changer climate change is with respect to heatwaves. Given that heatwaves are by far the deadliest extreme weather events in most parts of the world they must be taken very seriously. As emissions continue to rise we need to think

). - Plotting impact areas on the template maps in powerpoint is very time-consuming, especially for the nowcasting groups. Is there any other software to do this? The synoptic summary of regional drivers can be made more systematic by defining a set of standard plots which can be pre-loaded every morning

HighResMIP saves 150 years from spinup (cheaper, so also more possible for higher resolution models) Historic SST trend patterns • As part of CMIP, we’re very interested in being able to reproduce the global surface temperature evolution between 1850-present • However, for impacts we need to know regional

The following three documents from our archives illustrate the lives of three very different men. For the vast majority of combat forces the cessation of hostilities on 11 November 1918 marked an end to wartime activities, but life for the staff of the Meteorological Office continued largely

closer to average, though again with some regional differences.  Met Office Scientist Emily Carlisle said: “September saw unsettled weather across the UK. The jet stream was south shifted for most of the month, making it very wet for some in the south, but rather dry for some in the north

that grow as the forecast runs further into the future, and however good our observations, we can never know every detail of current conditions. Therefore, relying on ensemble modelling, where we run many simulations from very slightly different starting conditions, is much better than just one run

. By the end of the workshop, many lessons had been learnt: “I found the workshop very insightful. I have learnt that I not only need to do stories highlighting the impact of climate change but that I need to go a step further (incorporating advice from experts) to provide my listeners with practical

that the Secretary of State and Prime Minister had just confirmed Rob Woodward’s reappointment as Chair. • Minutes of the meeting held on 27 January 2021 had been approved as a true record of the meeting. • Rob Woodward noted the discussion the previous evening which had provided very useful context

Very hot conditions will continue across central, eastern and southeastern parts of the England until the end of the week, but the heat will trigger intense thunderstorms in some areas.

into London and also around Bournemouth and Southampton.  Parts of the Midlands have also been very dry. The last day of very widespread rainfall for East Anglia and the south-east was 29 May. Hot weather often brings the risk of showers and thunderstorms and we are expecting of a scattering

with the focus of the rain across North Wales, much of northern England, southern and eastern Scotland, with over 50mm falling very widely. The 23rd continued very wet in the Edinburgh area before the rain finally ceased as the area of low pressure weakened and filled. Many stations recorded their wettest
