• Space weather

  with University College London, the Met Office is examining model forecasts of space weather events and comparing these with observations to characterise model performance. This approach is a very effective way of pinpointing sources of model error, and it is possible to use this information to improve

  , Brown et al. (2014) estimated a 20-year return level of 35.7°C for summer TXx in London, for 1961-90. Such rare daily events can occur either during short spells of hot weather associated with particular synoptic conditions (e.g. during 2018, McCarthy et al., 2019), or during an extended heatwave
