Strategy Group (IMOSG). The IMOSG provides a cross government steer on the Met Office work as a whole so is wider than just the focus of the PWSCG. WW had reviewed departmental requirements to ensure the PWS requirements were captured. The next IMOSG meeting is scheduled for November. WW has written

between all aspects of the programme. The Programme Board will be advised by a Steering Committee made up of key members of the community. On a practical level there is funding available for Knowledge Integration across the programme which will include multiple meetings and workshops. Q: Exascale

more about the Met Office’s science plans, the group has a particular interest in forecast accuracy metrics. The meeting also provided an opportunity for WW to meet the Met Office’s new Chief Scientist Steven Belcher. WW attended the Interdepartmental Met Office Steering Group (IMOSG) where updates

conditions. Blocking patterns are often associated with an amplified jet stream. The jet stream is a fast-flowing ribbon of air high in the atmosphere that helps to steer weather systems around the globe. An amplified jet stream is one that has large waves, or "meanders," which can create areas of high
