). Overleaf are a series of plots showing the Gerrity Skill Score in relation to the agreed performance measure for forecast Cloud Base and Visibility at airports in receipt of 9, 24 and 30 hr TAFs. Ronaldsway (EGNS) has now been included alongside the other ’9hr North’ airports, but it is not included

. Low cloud near North Sea coasts from Northeast England northwards may persist, accompanied by a brisk easterly breeze that will keep coastal areas cooler. Inland areas, however, will enjoy warm to very warm temperatures, with highs ranging from 23-25°C and isolated spots potentially reaching 27°C

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

clearing into the North Sea. Additional heavy showers will move north-northeast across Northern Ireland and western Scotland. Elsewhere, the night will be largely dry with variable cloud and some clear spells. Winds will be light to moderate, fresh along some coasts, and it will remain a very warm

Access airfield climate statistics at 47 UK airports, including occurrence of LVPs, temperature, cloud cover, weather types, visibility and wind.

, consequently valid pre-flight briefing documentation still needs to be obtained for each flight. The Charts Occurrence of LVPs (Low Visibility Procedures) - When the cloud base and/or surface visibility fall below certain limits (for example 1,500 m for visibility and 300 ft for cloud*), the operating

of cumulonimbus clouds and turbulence, erupting volcanoes, and tropical cyclones.  Global gridded WAFS data sets: We produce global gridded data sets of wind and temperature for efficient flight planning, as well as gridded data sets of hazardous phenomena like cumulonimbus clouds, clear air

will be the cloudiest locations.  While Wednesday itself will be a largely fine and dry day for much of the UK, with just the southwest of England, Northern Ireland and western Wales perhaps under cloud, heavy, thundery showers will move in through the evening and overnight from the southwest.   Some

a host of advances (as detailed in a peer reviewed paper) which deliver a marked improvement compared to previous models. For example, while the Met Office’s highly regarded previous generation model HadGEM2-ES is considered a world leader in its representation of clouds, the new models include
