The Met Office supercomputing system is the first cloud-based supercomputer dedicated to weather and climate science

Our supercomputing system With greater capacity and even higher performance, our new supercomputing system is the first cloud-based supercomputer dedicated to weather and climate science and will set new standards for industry leveraging the combined strengths of the Met Office and Microsoft

and cloud will persist, mainly on some North Sea coasts, subduing temperatures in these areas.  Although Monday will still see a good deal of dry and fine weather, increasing cloud will hinder high temperatures, with the west holding onto the warmest of the weather through the day. Coupled
