a week ahead. Winds from the southwest will keep temperatures on the mild side, with little sign of any significant cold spells. Ensemble forecasts for London suggest average temperatures of 10–11°C, with only brief dips into colder territory. Even in Edinburgh, the pattern is similar, with only short

in southern Australia.  In light of the Australian fires, in January 2020 an international group of scientists, including from University of East Anglia (UEA), Met Office Hadley Centre, University of Exeter, Imperial College London, and CSIRO Oceans and Atmosphere reviewed published scientific evidence

if we inadvertently find ourselves in cloud? When did we last practise with London Centre / D&D on VHF 121.5MHz? • Ensure careful monitoring of fuel, distance, speed and elapsed time when dealing with delays from encountered weather. • During take-off for this flight, be ready to deal with gusts

. As a global community we are committed to further warming and impacts, even if we were to reach Net Zero globally tomorrow. We have failed to reduce emissions quickly enough and are failing to adequately manage risk. Recent research at the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) considered

, but from the ground, or rather, just above it. Swarms of flying ants were picked up on radar, appearing as strange, flashing echoes particularly northwest of London. These were initially mistaken for showers, but closer inspection revealed their true identity. Radar works by emitting electromagnetic

are the warmest months in the region with mean daily maxima reaching up to 19 °C in southern Dumfries and Galloway and the Clyde valley. These may be compared with 23.5 °C in the London area. Instances of extreme high temperatures are rare. Average annual rainfall totals range from less than 1000 mm
