This all aids in protecting life and property across Ireland. Even though the process of selecting the names was a fun and light-hearted task, ultimately, advising the public

in a number of different ways including from satellite data, by radar and by LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging). The Met Office uses an instrument called LiDAR to measure ash clouds. LiDAR works by sending pulses of laser light through the atmosphere, which is scattered by volcanic ash particles. Some

are consistent with ENSO-neutral conditions. ENSO-neutral remains most likely early in this period. However, through autumn the likelihood of La Niña developing increases. By late autumn (October-November-December period), NOAA Climate Prediction Centre gives a 50- 60 % chance of a short-lived La Niña

hold in the August to October period (51% likelihood in NOAA forecast). While forecasts looking this far ahead are inherently uncertain, particularly when issued at this time of year, there is a consistent message emerging from many international modelling centres. Much More Likely Below Normal Near

settled conditions across much of the UK, with most areas enjoying dry weather and sunny spells. Temperatures will be close to the seasonal average, though it will feel pleasantly warm in the sunshine, especially where winds remain light. Eastern and southeastern England may see more in the way of cloud

Thursday will begin with some early fog patches across western areas, but these will soon lift to leave a largely sunny day across much of England and Wales. Further north, Northern Ireland and particularly Scotland will see more in the way of cloud, with outbreaks of mainly light rain and drizzle
