not greatly delay sowing and planting once conditions improve. Tender plants, petunias and tomatoes for example, won’t be put outside for another month at least but lower light affects greenhouses and will slow their growth.”   You can check the latest forecast on our website, by following us

, with the odd isolated shower elsewhere. Later in the day, cloud and some patchy rain will spread into the far northwest, where it will also become windy. Elsewhere, winds will be mainly light to moderate, and temperatures will be around average for the time of year. Met Office presenter

Amazing aurora Overview Space weather helps produce amazing light shows in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres – known as the aurora. Many people dream of experiencing this dazzling event that only occurs in a few places around the world. In this activity you’ll get a chance to research different

humidity levels. Highs across most of the UK will reach the high teens to low 20s, with mid 20s expected in the south.  Thursday will begin on a cool note, especially in the northeast of Scotland, where light showers may persist. Elsewhere, dry and bright conditions will dominate. Temperatures

35 °C. Outlook for Wednesday Wednesday will start very warm and, in southern areas, very humid. There is a low risk of isolated showers or thunderstorms across northern areas, mainly Scotland, during the morning. For most, it will be a fine, hot and sunny day with light winds. Cloud will build

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

some wet and windy weather at times and the chance of some snow in the north of the UK, as is often the case at this time of year.”  Stephen Basterfield, National Network Manager, at National Highways, said: “Even light or moderate rain can have an impact on visibility and vehicle performance, so

– we can prevent them and improve outcomes for the next generation. The next few years are critical." Met Office Presenter and Meteorologist, Aidan McGivern, who features in the Met Office version of the video, said: “I have been involved in this project from the start and although its format is light

year in June/July as light levels increase due to the longer days. This image comes from the NOAA/NASA Suomi-NPP satellite which is a polar orbiting satellite which collects data while circling the Earth passing over the north and south poles. One of the images we can create from this data is a true

of the Earth’s atmosphere and surface. Objects that reflect most light, such as cloud, appear whiter than objects that reflect less light, such as land. Thicker clouds appear whiter than thinner clouds. The scale on the legend indicates albedo (or reflectivity) on a scale from 0 to 1. Visible satellite
