Rest of Europe
What are the chances… Glasgow enjoys or endures whatever way you want to look at it, the warmest day since 2005 yesterday. Just as thousands are here for the Commonwealth Games. According to the Met Office, Friday saw the high at Glasgow’s official recording station at Bishopton, near the Airport top 28.6C (83F). That’s in fact […]
In today’s post I want to take a quick look at the final month of summer as well as the upcoming autumn period based on current pattern, global sst’s and the oncoming El Nino, what we can expect as the warm season ends? I stand by my long term ideas for August which is backed up nicely with the CFSv2 which […]
The atmosphere is primed for maximum heating today and or tomorrow over Scotland, England and Wales. The 30C mark will be pushed in 3 out of the 4 countries while Belgium, Netherlands, Denmark and particularly southern Norway and Sweden should push the 30-33C range. Only a 582dm upper, 1024 surface ridge produces little or no cloud due to the solid cap (warm layer) in the […]
After a warm and record wet winter, the spring pattern has turned around with warmer and drier than normal conditions which could have significant implications for later down the road. This drier but not completely dry pattern has helped drain some of the saturated soil covering much of the UK and Ireland. This is important when it comes […]
The simply stunning weather we’re currently enjoying looks set to persist through the next 3 days at least with morning mist, low cloud and fog quickly burning back to the coast as the strong July sun heats the ground. Daytime temperatures will continue to sharply rise into the 22 to 27C range, locally 28-29C over Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland as […]
HIGH PRESSURE rules the remainder of this week with very little rain except for isolated, heat-induced thunderstorms. If there’s a week to take your summer holidays and stay in the UK, this is it! The models are adamant at holding back a front that’s off the West Coast till at least LATE Saturday into Sunday. Expect widespread inland […]
While there’s some very interesting developments in the current phase of solar cycle 24 which this post is based on, I also want to show the striking similarity between current global sea surface temps and El Nino to back at the same time in 2009. Summer is warmer than 2009 in the UK while it’s chilly […]
It’s been a wild weekend and close to last week across Western Europe thanks to low and high pressure funnelling north the warmest weather of the summer. The energy built as the mid and upper atmosphere cooked on top of the hot, humid low levels which forced a sharp thermal gradient, a setup which significantly accelerated the rate […]

The warmth is building over Ireland and the British Isles as the so called ‘Spanish plume’ get’s going. As explained in recent days, a Spanish plume or heat surge from Spain is created by the squeezing and forcing of air between a low off Ireland and high over Germany or the near continent. That’s what we’re […]
