Guchol, once a 150-mph super typhoon, made landfall today on the Kii Peninsula south of Osaka as a 65 mph tropical storm. Though significantly weakened due to cooler waters, dry air and increased wind shear, Guchol still packed quite a punch delivering strong, gusty winds throughout Japan. Winds excellerating as the air became squeezed through the narrow concrete […]
While looking at both the GFS surface and ECMWF upper charts this evening I see no hint of change over the next 10 days. While I felt a glimmer of optimism yesterday with the model transfering the heat from Ukraine to Spain and even the signs of a trough dipping into the east, there isn’t any northward expanding ridge I was […]
You could be forgiven for thinking it is almost summer-like again across the UK as we shrugged off those heavy morning showers which caused nasty surface spray and flooding which made way for a very pleasant June day.
