In the Spotlight Weather Photographer of the Year: Setting the scene - snow & ice 21 April 2021 We continue our look behind the subjects that have been illustrated by some of the most successful and eye-catching photographs entered into the competition. In the Spotlight Scottish Snow Patches Report 2019/2020 07 July 2020 Iain Cameron and Blair Fyffe have just published the 24th annual report on the survival of Scottish snow patches in July’s issue of Weather. In the Spotlight Historical documents allow scientists to reconstruct the flooding history in Italy over hundreds of years 24 September 2019 Severe flooding has always had severe impacts on societies. A recent study looked at damaging floods in Italy before the year 800. In the Spotlight Extreme precipitation - the future of UK summers? 06 September 2018 Extreme weather has been the feature of the UK for most of this year so far, from heavy snowfall in late winter to very high temperatures in early summer. In the Spotlight Climate change to increase clear-air turbulence threefold 01 December 2017 Climate change isn’t just something that is occurring at ground level, but also high up into the atmosphere – and it will have significant impacts on air travel. In the Spotlight Drizzle riddle solved 22 August 2017 Updrafts are more important than previously thought in determining whether clouds produce drizzle rather than normal-sized raindrops. In the Spotlight Why does pressure fall off more slowly in warm air than cold air? 20 June 2017 There are two questions here. The first is does pressure fall off more slowly in warm air than cold air? In the Spotlight The jet stream: chicken or egg? 19 June 2017 Does the position of the warm and cold upper air masses determine the route of the jet stream, or does the jet stream determine the position of the cold and warm upper air masses? Which is the chicken and which the egg? In the Spotlight Wind speeds in Saturn's jet stream whizz round at over 1,000mph 11 November 2016 New research has revealed the planet has the widest, most intense jet stream out of all the planets in the solar system
