On the final day, groups showcased skills they had learned, presenting work done during the workshop. The training has been particularly

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 over a large area. The warning states that “very localised torrential downpours may lead to flooding.” By monitoring the radar, you can see
“It’s all very well us scientists talking about projections and model outputs, but it is really important to illustrate what climate change might mean for people and the weather they could experience. We’ve been working hard with the BBC to develop a tool that is scientifically robust but also gives
. An amber warning for heavy has also been issued for parts of southeast Scotland, where 80 to 100mm of rain is possible over higher ground. Further warnings for thunderstorms have been issued for parts of southeast England today. Chief meteorologist, Dan Suri said: “It has been a very wet week for many
• Define the ground system requirements • Develop Cost Estimate Issues • Reviews need to be coordinated and not duplicated. • Define Environmental Requirements (Vibration Loads, EMC, Contamination, etc) • Long phase A to define & reduce risks has been very beneficial
(‘UNprecedented Simulated Extremes using ENsembles’) method that uses very large ensembles of initialised climate predictions to provide improved estimates of risk. This methodology contributed to the UK Government National Flood Resilience Review (NFRR, published in 2016) and has the potential to be valuable

High pressure has been dominant across the UK, bringing dry, settled weather with some sunshine for most but also some overnight frosts. However low pressure from the Atlantic will take over this week, bringing wet and at times very windy conditions. The first area of low pressure moves
rainfall processes across space and time scales This project involves the analysis of extreme rainfall processes, and model deficiencies in the representation of these, across space and time scales. A key aspect is developing a very high resolution (1.5 km) version of the Unified Model, over a region
