Landmark report stresses urgency of climate crisis
Time is short to avert the worst impacts of climate change, but the report also reminds us there is no scientific reason to delay action.
: “This report paints the starkest picture yet of the global and regional impacts of climate change. Time is short to avert the worst impacts of climate change, but the report also reminds us there is no scientific reason to delay action. The case is clear. More focussed projections of future climate change

Understanding one of Europe's biggest climate drivers
A new Met Office-led study – reviewing evidence from previous scientific papers and climate models – reveals natural patterns of weakening and strengthening of ocean currents which influence the UK’s weather and climate.
In the North Atlantic lies one of the world’s largest climate mechanisms: a system of currents transporting relatively warm water from the tropics to the poles, with return currents at depth transporting colder, denser water further south. The transport of heat to the North Atlantic keeps the UK’s

Heat in cities – the health impacts of a changing climate
exceeded 40°C for the first time. This was a milestone in UK climate history, which was complemented by the first ever red severe weather warning for heat issued by the Met Office. Some areas of southern England recorded their highest ever temperatures by extraordinary margins of 3-4°C. A Met Office

Uganda - Strengthening Weather and Climate Information Services
The purpose of this project was to improve the availability, relevance and use of weather and climate information in 22 targeted districts in Uganda using local languages.
co-production, ACCRA will bring together producers of climate information and advisories, translate the forecasts and advisories into 22 local languages with community-based organisations to provide households with relevant forecasts across multiple timescales. These will be delivered through

July 2019: a month in UK climate statistics
July 2019 saw the highest temperature ever recorded in the UK, but the month wasn’t all about heat – rainfall is a significant talking point too, particularly across parts of northern England.
on from a largely wet June, northern England and the Midlands have now received more than the season’s usual rainfall, with August still to go. Tim Legg, of the Met Office’s National Climate Information Centre, said: “With an all-time temperature record it would be easy to assume that this summer
