, the severity of the event overall cannot be compared in terms of duration; for example in December 2010 such freezing temperatures lasted for at least a week, while the severe winter of 1962-63 saw conditions such as this from late December though much of January and February. Further snow and low

Met Office Hadley Centre scientists have been working with BBC data journalists to develop a new interactive visualisation tool to show how climate change might impact the weather you see in your area in coming decades. The impact of climate change in your local area For the first time historical

regions of the world have provided local scientists with the skills and software to generate, analyse and interpret high-resolution climate change scenarios. Carol also works on ongoing collaborations between the Hadley Centre and PRECIS users around the world, which allow us to support and develop

were presented at Regional Climate Outlook Forums. This work was carried out under the Met Office Hadley Centre - DFID Climate Science Research Partnership (CSRP). Michael's research currently focuses on multi-year changes of rainfall over the Sahel. The aim of his work is improved understanding why

will spend some of their time working at a field service centre, as well as visiting Met Office HQ. Field service centres are workshops where all sorts of weather observing equipment can be built, fixed and maintained. Field service centres are often located near radars so that the engineers can

damage. Most of the Met Office’s radomes are geodesic, meaning they have a rounded, curved surface made up of lots of flat hexagons. They look like giant golf balls! Radars are usually maintained by field service engineers, who will spend some of their time working at a field service centre, as well

on the lessons from WISER to date, WISER Africa will be a user-centred programme, using Gender, Equity and Social Inclusion (GESI) sensitive co-production and design to ensure that the interventions are impactful and sustainable. Innovation Supported by: is a key principle of the programme, and it will aim
