Research Summaries Using machine learning to predict fire‐ignition occurrences from lightning forecasts 01 April 2021 Summary of the research article published in the RMetS Meteorological Applications journal In the Spotlight Aviation Forecasting - a Forecaster's Perspective 22 March 2021 Bear in mind: what goes up, must come down! Weather The difference between meteorological and astronomical seasons 27 January 2021 Why are the dates of the seasons different for meteorologists and astronomers? Weather Frozen Ponds 14 January 2021 Have you ever thought about why bodies of water freeze from the top down? We have all seen this on frosty mornings. It sounds trivial, but it is a unique property of water. Weather I tried to catch the fog... but I "mist"! 07 October 2020 What are the differences between fog and mist? Weather Pyrocumulonimbus Clouds 15 July 2020 You may have heard this term in the media during the Arctic heatwave this year. But what are pyrocumulonimbus clouds and how are they formed? Weather Heatwaves - Breaking Records in 2019 24 June 2020 Many parts of the UK are currently experiencing heatwave conditions, which are forecast to continue until at least Friday. So, this week on the Weather Club, we thought we’d take a closer look at heatwaves... Weather What is upward lightning? Over the past few years, Dakota USA native Tom A Warner and his colleagues have been filming lightning on high-speed cameras. In total, they have captured 776 naturally occurring lightning flashes with recording speeds as high as 100,000 images per second. Weather Record Breaking weather in Norway 08 January 2020 Just two days into 2020, a new high temperature record was set in Norway. In the small town of Sunndalsøra, the weather felt more like mid-summer than the bleak depths of winter, as temperatures soared to 19.0°C.
