United Kingdom & Ireland
Scotland It’s a much improved day across the country compared to recent times with dry and bright weather for all except the far North and Northern Isles where there’s a lot of cloud with outbreaks of rain. Temps this afternoon in the mix of sun and cloud have reached a pleasant 19 to 21C. Tonight will see […]
Scotland It’s been a fresher day than of late with temps only managing 18 to 20C despite decent spells of afternoon sunshine and a much better day compared to the heavy, more frequent showers of yesterday. Through this evening any showers which popped up should quickly die away leaving a largely dry night with decent clear spells. […]
Despite a lot of hot air pushing north over the western side of the continent the next 5 days, it remains very unsettled over Britain and Ireland. In the last 48 to 72 hours, a strong cold front has swept east across France, the Low Countries and into Germany as cooler maritime air slams up against a wall of heat over […]
Scotland It’s looking rather unsettled throughout this week across Scotland with a lot of showers dotted around today, some could be heavy packing thunder and lightning. While largely cloudy for most, sunny spells should appear in places through the afternoon. Highs 18-21C. Showers continue overnight but should be less and more spaced out. Lows 12-15C. Tuesday […]
We remain in a very active weather pattern across the UK and Ireland while it’s hot and sunny across much of Europe. Atlantic lows are riding the rim of the hot dome currently centred over central Europe. The UK and Ireland remains beneath the summer storm track and we will remain beneath the active corridor this upcoming week […]
Scotland It’s been yet another day dominated by sunshine and heavy showers, feeling pleasantly warm in the sunshine with highs reaching 20-23C. Through tonight and showers die out once the daytime heating is lost and it will turn clear with mist and fog reforming. Lows 10-15C. Saturday like yesterday and today will see sunshine but […]
We’re in a very active summertime pattern right now with plenty of warm, humid air in the mix and when you’ve got all that warmth and humidity bottled up and drive fronts in from a low, you’ve got the recipe for a very thundery pattern. Heavy, torrential and even monsoon-like rainfall is occurring in places on a near daily […]
Scotland This morning’s very heavy band of rain which pushed up through Dumfries and Galloway and the Central Lowlands was followed this afternoon by intense downpours. These downpours, produced by towering cumulonimbus clouds packed thunder and lightning and produced flooding in very short periods of time, especially in urban areas where water struggles to drain. It was another warm and muggy […]
The squeeze play between low pressure to our west and high pressure to our east continues. Embedded lows look set to bring us a series of pulses containing heavy rain and thunderstorms. The warm, juicy source crossing warmer than normal waters means the torrential downpour and flood risk remains high throughout the UK and Ireland. This very setup was highlighted throughout July […]
Scotland It’s been a better day across Scotland than it was yesterday with more in the way of sunshine, however the warm sun did help bubble up some heavy, thundery downpours this afternoon, perhaps producing local flooding in places. In between the showers it was warm and sunny. Into tonight and the showers of today die […]
