of these extreme events continue to rise as long as we continue to emit greenhouse gases. The science is clear that the faster we reduce our emissions of greenhouse gases, the more we can avoid the most severe impacts of climate change.”  Climate change may also lead to wetter conditions in some places

Scottish Highlands. The course of mean monthly rainfall for 1981 - 2010 for 4 sites is shown below. Whilst rainfall is generally welldistributed through the year, there is a seasonal pattern. The driest season is spring whilst in the wetter upland areas there is an autumn/winter maximum, when

proxy observations (see ‘What do the projections show in recent climate?’ for more details). In the recent climate (1980-2000), the Global PPE-15 and Regional RCM-12 models agree well with the proxy observations in terms of duration and magnitude of the summer dry season, but show a delay in season

-season sea surface temperatures in the tropical Atlantic and Pacific. The detailed methodology is described in Part 2. For this forecast the GloSea5 component comprised an aggregation of 42 GloSea5 predictions (ensemble members) initialised between 23 January and 12 February which cover the period

a number of brief hot spells, particularly in the south and east, followed by a return to cooler, wetter weather. The hottest day of the year so far occurred on 1 July, marking the peak of the most recent warm phase. Current conditions and short-term outlook As we move into early July, high pressure has

the door for low pressure systems to move in from the Atlantic. This change has already brought wetter conditions, and it’s this new setup that will influence our weather over the coming days. READ MORE: What is the jet stream and how does it affect our weather? Short-Term Outlook: Uncertainty

for understanding climate variability in East Asia on timescales of seasons to decades and to assist in collaborative attribution studies of extreme events. Model development is at the core of CSSP China. Longer-term goals include joint development of high-resolution models for the East Asian

results, referred to as the “new” projections. The maps presented here cover all four seasons, whereas those in Harris et al (2022) were mainly restricted to winter and summer. Here, we show projected changes for the RCP4.5 scenario during 2040-2059 as well as covering RCP8.5 responses for 2070-2089

unpredictable for a while now, the traditional seasons have changed, the wet season that was expected between February and March is no longer consistent.
