observations of the weather in the London area and is credited with having first discovered the concept of the urban heat island, where night time temperatures in the cities do not fall as low as those in the countryside. He attributed this to the numbers of coal fires burning in close proximity

Increase in tropical cyclone risk to coastal regions Also known as hurricanes in the North Atlantic and typhoons in the northwest Pacific, tropical cyclones have maximum wind speeds of at least 74 miles per hour and can be up to 1000 kilometres in diameter.

These thresholds vary by region: 28°C in London and the southeast, 27°C in parts of the Midlands, and 25°C across much of Wales, northern England, Scotland, and Northern
