You should make a new concept/segment in the deep dive where you look at what actually happened and compare it to the models you had from a week or 2 ago, be cool to see how correct or incorrect some models might've been.

Am I correct in thinking that the last year, July'23 to June'24, has been one of the least sunny on record? I am approaching 75yo and cannot remember such a lack of insolation here in Surrey. As witnessed by my garden where, so far, I have only about half the flowers of this time last year, which was about average.

The temperatures at this time of year should be 25-32 particularly in London areas. 17-22 is what you would expect in late march early to mid April. This time last year temperatures was in 25-32 rage. So it is very poor and disappointing. Hopefully there will be change soon. I checked the temperatures in France, Italy and Germany and it is 5-10 degrees higher than it is in the uk. The warn area is in Italy, Germany,spain and Portugal and once the jet stream needs go back up. 6:13 look at the dark reds on the right hand side if that comes across the temptrures will hit 25-33

@metoffice 15 күн бұрын

Good question. How climate change affects the jet is a really big topic in research at the moment. There are a few theories but one strong one is that it could cause the jet to meander more, generating more extremes of wet spells and hot spells, far from confirmed though.

Thank you for the informative video Alex I always enjoy them as I love learning about how different systems influence our weather. I have a question about the different warning maps, how do you decide the shape of the maps in terms of what areas they cover such as the thunderstorm warning shown in the video, how do you know what places to cover and what places to just miss the warning map or is it a rough estimate? Hope that makes sense! Keep up the great work!

@metoffice 15 күн бұрын

Great question Mat, thanks. The area is decided by the chief meteorologist. They look at the weather in great details obviously and weigh up all the information from the forecast models. But also they take advice from Met Office advisors 'on the ground'. Our warnings are about impacts and so it's vital to understand what the affects of the weather could be. The advisors speak regularly to responders, emergency services and local communities and help greatly with drawing up the boundaries.

Las vagas appears to be 100 Square miles of concrete . How much does this effect their recent temperture record ? Any thoughts

@metoffice 15 күн бұрын

The thermometer will be subject to scrutiny and meet WMO criteria for weather observations. Vegas has always been made up of a lot of concrete so even with the urban heat island effect it is still a record for that location.

Terrific show. Deakin is unbelievable. A thirty minute show in one take that was totally pro. Great work Met office. Keep up the good work. Oh and can you organise some nice weather for Normandy next weekend? Headed there on my motorbike and I’ve done enough rain riding this year. Thanks a lot 👍

hello everyone 😊 i have an question: is it possible that recent colder temperatures than average this year, is actually consequence of appearance the cold blob anomaly? as i learned AMOC get down 15% of weakening... or is it to early to make such assumption yet? ...kind regards 😊

I have a question to ask you guys, how do you incorporate data from various sources, such as satellites, weather stations, and ocean buoys, to improve the accuracy of short-term and long-term weather forecasts, especially in predicting extreme weather events?

Feel like I've been living in a wet autumn for almost a year now. Would be nice to have some consistent, dry weather to be able to enjoy the outdoors without getting soaked!
