Rest of Europe

The first week of June and meteorological summer is turning out to be rather unsettled in the West while hot in the East and North of Europe. [s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_level1)] Interestingly the new run of the CFSv2 has trended wetter in the west including the UK for June. Major warmth for central and north. It remains […]

While there’s a lot of warm, humid air covering the European continent including the UK this weekend, we have a rather significant ATLANTIC influence through the upcoming 10 days. [s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_level1)] The models are showing TWO significant lows which will not only bring wet, windy conditions to the western side of the continent but may bring a […]

The weather pattern is currently dominated by a ridge of high pressure extending from the Azores up towards Scandinavia providing a decent weekend with a mix of sun and cloud and warm temps. Expect low 20s in Madrid, Paris, London up to Stockholm. The shower and thunderstorm chances increase the further south and east you head […]

From the worst Balkans flooding in history to the hottest May weather on record for northwest Russia and eastern Scandinavia, this week looks set to bring a major flood threat. [s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_level1)] It looks as though a large north-south region stretching from the boot of Italy into Greece all the way north to the Baltic states look set […]

As we approach meteorological summer 2014, it appears the pattern is showing it’s hand. Where it’s driest it’s warmest and where wettest, well to an extent, it’s coolest. In terms of pattern now and through the next 2 weeks, it looks to be showing us what we can expect through the next 1-2 months. [s2If […]

Here’s the GFS 500mb height anomalies through the next 7 days. [s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_level1)] Unfortunately, there has been good consistency with the models on the NAO looks likely […]

Although showing you in yesterday’s video the reasons why I don’t believe this summer will be a washout over the UK, this week appears to be pretty wet indeed. [s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_level1)] The reason why we see chilly easterlies and a lot of rain pushing west is because of a large building high over Scandinavia that will act […]

It’s a tricky bank holiday weekend outlook with sunshine and showers on the whole. Pinpointing where those showers will be at any given time is and will be near impossible. I’ve been asked by several, what will be the weekend be like. My simple answer, expect ‘sunshine and showers’ and by no means a washout. […]

Up to 50,000 people are set to folk to Glasgow this Friday for the much anticipated Radio One Big Weekend. Although it won’t be wall to wall sunshine. I am however pleased to say that we should see a good amount of sunshine throughout the weekend with a chance of some showers. By no means a […]
