summary of Met Office activity. The group were taken through the weather trends experienced over the summer. Summer 2017 was wetter than average with much of the forecasting challenge stemming from the convective rainfall that dominated. This was evident in events such as Coverack. DR touched on other

, the fifth named storm of the season, Eowyn, brought destructive winds to northwestern parts of the UK and the first red warnings for wind in 2025. Gusts of over 90mph were recorded across parts of Northern Ireland, Wales and Scotland. Northern Ireland also recorded its lowest January MSLP

variables that are used to predict the weather based on indigenous knowledge. These variables can be used to predict imminent weather events as well as long-term prediction on upcoming seasons. Traditional knowledge: is the knowledge, as well as skills and practices, that is developed within a community

with modified global weather patterns that make many tropical land regions wetter and cooler. These increase plant growth, temporarily increasing the uptake of CO2 from the atmosphere and hence temporarily slowing the build-up of CO2 due to anthropogenic emissions. We can estimate the potential contribution

and infrastructure more resilient to high impact weather. To do so requires assessment of worst-case scenarios: how bad could it be? The wet winter of 2013/14 brought widespread flooding to the UK. Is this the wettest winter season that we should expect in a present-day climate? The risks from compound

. The Atlantic depressions are more vigorous in autumn and winter and most of the rain which falls in those seasons in the south west is from this source. In summer, convection caused by solar surface heating sometimes forms shower clouds and a large proportion of rainfall falls from showers
