These were initially mistaken for showers, but closer inspection revealed their true identity. Flying

territory. For a heatwave to be officially recognised, temperatures must exceed specific thresholds for three consecutive days. 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

between Reading and London, with a peak near Guildford. A corridor from Bristol through Birmingham to Manchester. Parts of Essex and Suffolk. These hotspots are partly due to population density, more people means more chances for tornadoes to be observed and reported, but they also reflect genuine

As the London Volcanic Ash Advisory Centres (VAACs), we are responsible for monitoring and forecasting ash dispersion from volcanic eruptions originating in Iceland and the north-eastern corner of the North Atlantic.
