, in disaster affected regions, gives a different perspective and is very much a more applied side of that, so it seemed like a natural fit.” Getting field ready As a charity, MapAction relies on volunteers giving up their time for fairly intensive training to get them ready to support the response

decision, as this threshold was not relevant to any specific decision-making activities in the country and therefore providing very little in the way of relevant scientific information. Session 4: Communicating seasonal climate information – challenges and opportunities Pulling together the activities

, it is possible to check the speed and direction of the rain, and gauge whether any particularly heavy rain is likely to linger in the same place for any length of time. The radar is also useful when very heavy showers are expected but it is not possible to forecast exactly where they will form

report. The workshops were extremely helpful in providing concrete ideas for improvements the NSWWS and confirming that only minor changes were needed as the service is operating very effectively. The report contains a list of recommendations for consideration and accompanying measures of success

The radar is also useful when very heavy showers are expected but it is not possible to forecast exactly where they will form. For example, a warning for heavy rain may be in place

, there was currently a lack of appetite for them within Europe. Matt also advised that the global exchange of data in IWXXM is part of the ICAO Global Air Navigation Plan, however very few States currently exchange data in IWXXM, so this too is a factor that restricts the need for SWIM services.

It’s very important to think about how climate change in other countries is affecting local people. These impacts may also have effects on us here

East Lothian Council took a targeted approach, sharing specific LACS data with colleagues in energy and emergency planning to highlight local risks. “We are still at that very high-level strategic stage of adaptation planning,” they explained
