holidays and resulted in burst water pipes and severe flooding in unoccupied homes and commercial properties. July and August are the warmest months in the region with mean daily maxima ranging from less than 15 °C on the highest ground to more than 19 °C in southern Dumfries and Galloway and the Clyde

an indication of expected cloud conditions and temperature. Finally it would highlight any weather-related hazards that were likely to occur in particular counties or districts. These would include violent thunderstorms, high winds, unusually high or low temperatures, floods, flash floods and landslides

centuries later. Throughout the ages, thinkers, philosophers and naturalists examined the phenomenon of the rainbow effect, noting its appearance not just in the sky but in other circumstances too. But in every case, two elements were essential for that characteristic burst of colour, water vapour

homes in Wainfleet evacuated and nearly 130 properties flooded when the River Steeping burst its banks. There were also flooding problems across parts of east Wales with transport links affected.

January 2020 – The Met Office participates in a field campaign on Clouds, Circulation and Climate Sensitivity out of the Caribbean island of Barbados with UK, European and American partners.

From 20th of January to 20th of February 2020 the observational field campaign EUREC4A (Elucidating the role of clouds-circulation coupling in climate) will take place, with operations based out of the Caribbean island of Barbados (Fig 1). EUREC4A is a European initiative that, together

differences, and some very high resolution climate modelling suggests that summers may tend to become drier overall but when it does rain it will fall in heavier bursts, which has implications for flash flooding. • Drought - It is very challenging to say whether drought events are becoming more common

bursts its banks on the afternoon of the 7th which affected the M1 at junction 34, and not far from there the Environment Agency used high-volume pumps to move water away from homes. Many rescues were carried out by the fire service in Doncaster, and on the 8th a major incident was declared

aspects considered included how it might related to triggering winter fuel payments, the increase in fire response call outs as more people light fires, the risk of household water pipes bursting and in the education setting transport issues can impact keeping the 1200 school estate open. KS spoke
