of rain, sleet and snow to parts of southern England and south Wales on Wednesday, but the extent of any snow is very uncertain. There is then a risk of further snow moving south across Scotland, northern England and the Midlands on Thursday”. ⚠️ Snow and ice warnings are in force for many

in Applied Meteorology at the University of Reading, and then began a PhD on the topic of very-short term wind power forecasts under extreme weather conditions. Since the start of her career in 2010, Joana has focused on Energy Meteorology applications. Previously, this involved the development of wind

at the process level using numerical models such as Met Office flow over hills model: BLASIUS and the Unified Model at very high resolution, the development of parametrization schemes for use in the Unified Model and  operational lee-wave forecasting models. The work is supported by theory and detailed

or thunderstorms are possible. As well as the hot daytime temperatures, a very warm night is also expected on Sunday night into Monday”. By Tuesday, the hot air mass will likely become displaced by fresher conditions. The weather then will become unsettled once again, with occasional Atlantic frontal systems

and wind. Key challenges in this area are cost effective provision of climate quality records that need to be very highly uniform (see GCOS principles). provision of key measurements including visibility, weather and cloud to continue the manual records where these are no longer made. Continuous

levels and warming oceans. “If we have any chance of avoiding the most severe impacts of global climate change, the science is telling us that we urgently need to see an emissions peak with figures falling very soon after.” Carbon dioxide concentrations in the atmosphere reached a record high

I think that the order of RCM and CPM is not consistent throughout and should be unless there is a very strong argument to the contrary. iii. The colour bars

for tropical regions. With a couple of notable exceptions (e.g. East Africa) La Niña, very broadly speaking, tends to increase the likelihood of wetter than normal conditions across many land areas of the tropics.

of highlights March began mostly settled, but rather cold. From the 9th onwards it turned rather milder but also unsettled and windy. The second half of the month was mostly settled, although with periods of rain from 23rd to 28th which became heaviest in the north-west, while the month ended very warm
