Weather What does a cloud feel like? 27 June 2017 A blog post by MetMatters guest writer, Dr Ellie Highwood, Professor of Climate Physics at the University of Reading Weather Study explains science behind asperitas, a newly recognised cloud 10 May 2017 Citizen science has now helped experts to explain how the newly-recognised ‘wave-like’ asperitas cloud is formed. Weather International Cloud Atlas and new cloud classifications 01 April 2017 The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) has released its new, online, digitised International Cloud Atlas, with a few new entries. Weather Digitised International Cloud Atlas launched on World Meteorological Day 23 March 2017 On 23rd March 2017 - World Meteorological Day - the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) released its new, online, digitised International Cloud Atlas, which is the global reference for observing and identifying clouds. Weather New cloud type spotted over Snowdonia 14 November 2016 These rare, rippling clouds resemble ocean waves in the sky, but what are they called and how do they form? Weather Rare sighting of sinusoidal thin contrails 07 April 2016 The Royal Meteorological Soceity received these photographs this week, sent in from Tofino, on the west of Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada, asking for an explanation of how they are formed. Weather Nacreous clouds 03 February 2016 Several rare sightings of nacreous clouds have been reported over the last few days, delighting cloudspotters, with photographs of the clouds coming from England and Scotland. Weather Precipitation Production Pathways 19 February 2015 Although not always a ‘welcome friend,’ precipitation is essential to the life on Earth and the latent heat released from its formation provides much of the energy that drives atmospheric circulation. Weather What are noctilucent clouds? 28 April 2014 Noctilucent clouds are very fine, wispy formations made out of ice crystals that occur high up in the mesosphere (50-53 miles) and are the highest clouds in the Earth’s atmosphere.
