the morning, although some eastern coastal areas and parts of the far north may remain overcast throughout the day. Elsewhere, conditions will be dry with plenty of sunshine. Winds will be light to moderate for most, though they may be locally fresh along eastern coasts. Temperatures will again be warm

at times. Winds will be fresh to strong in the north and northwest early on, easing through the morning. Elsewhere, winds will remain light to moderate. Into the night, strong winds will return to the northwest, with a risk of coastal gales. Temperatures will be around or slightly above average

sunshine and a few blustery showers in Northern Ireland, Wales and south-west England. The Northern Isles are expected to remain largely dry until the evening. Winds will be light at first but will become moderate to fresh, and locally strong along western coasts, with a risk of gales. Temperatures

northwest of Scotland where a weak front will bring cloudier conditions with a chance of some light showers.   Temperatures will be warmer again than Friday, with low 20°Cs widely across the UK and highs reaching 24°C in eastern Wales, the Midlands, East Anglia and the south of England.   Low pressure

dry and sunny throughout the day. Temperatures will be highest in eastern and southeastern England, where values may reach 19-20°C. Elsewhere, particularly in the west and northwest, it will be cooler with highs generally between 15-18°C. Winds will be light for most, though a strengthening breeze

extent lower than every year before 2007. Each year, scientific centres around the world submit predictions of September Arctic sea ice extent to the Sea Ice Outlook (SIO), a series of reports published in June, July and August by the Sea Ice Prediction Network (SIPN). The second report of the summer

totals are based on the average value across each county. Lead author and Met Office climate scientist, Mike Kendon, said: “Our new analysis of these observations really shines a light on the fastest changing aspects of our weather as a consequence of climate change. Long term averages can be difficult

on the ground, mounted on an aircraft or satellite-based, and can be used to observe the location and vertical profile of aerosols such as volcanic ash. A lidar measures backscattered light from atmospheric targets e.g. aerosols including volcanic ash and Saharan dust, water droplets and ice crystals, using

restrictions in coastal waters; such as in the Moray Firth and Firth of Forth during prevailing westerly wind conditions. The Pentland Firth is also resolved by multiple cells in the model, although the addition of current information would be needed in order to properly represent wave growth and dissipation
