The climate monitoring and attribution research area is involved in collaborations with institutions around the world.

station meteorological observations for application to extremes and health hazards. We develop climate data records of upper tropospheric humidity under the EUMETSAT Climate Monitoring Satellite Application Facility.  We work together with other groups in the UK and in Europe on the ESA Climate

not currently in the digital climate records also document a value of 60F 15.6 °C at Great Yarmouth, Norfolk on 31 December 1901). The daily maximum temperature of 16.3 °C at St James’s Park, Central London on 1 January 2022 made this the UK’s warmest New Year’s Day on record, exceeding 15.6 °C at Bude

present and future climate, including process-based evaluation and analysis of observations and climate model data. Observational weather and climate records in Pakistan are underexploited in climate analysis and modelling meaning that they cannot be used to support climate modelling research

Nick leads our climate monitoring and observational climate data set development work.

is responsible for the leadership and management of people in the Climate Monitoring and Attribution group who develop observed climate data sets and use them to monitor the current state of the climate and evaluate climate models. The team produces homogeneous records of climate variability and change

the afternoon of that day. However, standard climate observations record maximum temperatures over a 24 hour period from 0900 GMT to 0900 GMT and the highest temperature reached during the standard climatological day was 32.5 degrees at Heathrow just before 0900 on 1st July at the start of what became

to TCs, with a lower risk in the south (especially south Mindanao) and a higher risk further north. What sources of historical and future climate information are available? Observational climate records are available from meteorological stations across the Philippines since about the 1950s, although

Study shows human induced climate change made the UK’s record-breaking annual temperature around 160 times more likely.

It is now possible to confirm that 2022 was the UK’s hottest year on record, with an average temperature of over 10°C recorded for the first time. Influence of climate change An attribution study conducted by Met Office scientists has shown that what would have been around a 1-in-500 year annual

a range of climate sensitive sectors, efforts to provide routinely updated quality information face many challenges. At the core of any effective climate services are data. Furthermore, ground observational climate records are essential to produce quality data and reliable climate analysis, short-term

for informing our forecasts and for the long-term weather and climate records of the UK. To ensure consistency of measurements in the records, weather stations must meet strict criteria, in alignment with meteorological organisations across the world. This includes specific standards on the levels
