Mild month for some Despite the wet weather, temperatures have generally remained above average for the month, with southern England the warmest compared to average – typically between 1.5

and regional contrasts The forecast highlights the risk of heavy rain, especially for northwest England, Northern Ireland, southern Scotland, and parts of Wales. Persistent rain in these areas means that rainfall totals could build up quickly, and there is some uncertainty about the exact position
and complexities of what the UK weather can throw at us. I’m particularly pleased to see the accuracy around the temperature figures, especially given the importance of this as we experience more frequent and prolonged heatwave events.” How useful were weather warnings during summer 2025? A total
of year for Sri Lanka, with an average of 250–300 mm of rain in November. However, current forecasts suggest totals could reach 800 mm, with some spots potentially seeing 1,000 mm – that’s a metre of rain in just a few days. Such amounts could lead to significant flooding, including one-in-20-year

for meteorological purposes. By measuring the delay in signal arrival caused by water vapour in the atmosphere, we can estimate the total water vapour content along the signal’s path. This information is particularly valuable for identifying areas of deep moisture that can trigger thunderstorms
climate change signal resulting from increased atmospheric moisture is an important secondary factor. Rainfall totals on the wettest days have increased, this is more strongly linked to climate change. In the future, climate projections for the UK indicate there being a greater risk of heavy
