. Introduction A microclimate is the distinctive climate of a small-scale area, such as a garden, park, valley or part of a city. The weather variables in a microclimate, such as temperature, rainfall, wind or humidity, may be subtly different to the conditions prevailing over the area as a whole

. On 25 March around 1,000 customers were still without electricity in Northern Ireland. The Territorial Army helped to clear some of the worst affected roads and farmers helped too. Image 4 (courtesy of David Houston) was taken near Silent Valley in County Down on 5 April 2013, two weeks after

above shows a true-colour image of northern Italy and the Central Alps from the morning of 6 January 2023. At the bottom of the image, we see the large, flat expanse of the Po Valley plain completely covered by fog and low cloud. We also see tendrils of fog penetrating northwards into the mountain

on the coast, with the highest values on the coast of County Down. The coldest nights are those on which there is a covering of snow on the ground; the lowest temperatures occur away from the moderating influence of the sea, on the floors of inland valleys into which cold air can drain.
