) or drier (below-normal). Rainfall information includes all types of precipitation, e.g. rain, hail, snow, drizzle…. The phrase ‘likely’ is used when the probability is above 40% (climatological average would be 33%) and below 70%. When the probability is over 70% then the phrase ‘much more likely

cycle, and in particular the degree of future change, and looking at other high impact weather events such as hail and fog. There are also research gaps on the feedbacks between the land and surface temperatures and soil moisture, as well as understanding the direct and indirect impact of atmospheric

, pilots will still likely be able to access warnings of a range of significant weather conditions for that airfield including strong wind, gale, fog, frost, thunderstorms, hail, squall, snow and frost. Further details on the Aerodrome Warnings product is available at aerodrome weather warnings

rises and cools in the atmosphere, it condenses into liquid droplets, forming clouds. Ice crystals may also form at higher altitudes. Precipitation: Within clouds, droplets merge and grow larger. When they become heavy enough, they fall to the ground as rain, sleet, hail or snow. Once

. Lidar imagery of the team working at Cardington. Ongoing research  The Met Office and NPL’s Sensor Assurance Framework research at Cardington has been undertaken for around two years, with the aim to test sensor performance against as many different weather types as possible, including rain, hail

). There are several cases where the enhanced spatial detail of the UKCP Local 2.2km data offer added value over the coarser resolution UKCP Regional 12km data. These include: - extreme rainfall in the summer - hail and lightning - extreme wind-storms (specifically ‘sting jets’) - analysis of sub-daily data - heat

, and sometimes hail, the hallmarks of a thunderstorm. Convection and Ocean Currents Convection also plays a crucial role in the oceans. Warm water near the equator is pushed toward the poles by prevailing winds. As this water moves into cooler regions, it loses heat and becomes denser. Increased salinity

thunder and hail, with rainfall totals reaching 10–15mm in just a few hours. The bank holiday weekend sees a marked change in weather type, with many areas seeing rain or showers and more unsettled conditions, which remain into next week.
