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

In 2022, the Trackplot team identified that environmental hazards and severe weather conditions were critical factors to monitor to keep outdoor workers safe, particularly in light of climate change impacts. Met Office predictions for 2070 compared to 1990 indicate that winters will be between 1
