Hello everyone - here’s an important update about our presence on X.

The NCAS account on X will remain for now, but we won't be posting anymore.

[National Centre for Atmospheric Science @AtmosScience]

The account will stay open so we can respond to DMs, but you won’t see any new content from us. Instead, we look forward to connecting with you on our other active channels such as Bluesky, LinkedIn, and Instagram.

Storm Bert is set to hit the UK on Saturday, bringing strong winds, snow and rain.

We spoke to Ambrogio Volonté, Senior Research Fellow at @AtmosScience and @UniofReading, about named storms, and found out what has been causing the cold weather.

[National Centre for Atmospheric Science @AtmosScience]

Scientists are decoding clouds from space, improving weather and climate predictions using NCAS’s research aircraft and the EarthCARE satellite. The VERIFY project will calibrate the satellite, which is looking at how clouds, aerosols and solar radiation interact to affect the Earth’s atmosphere.

“EarthCARE represents a major advancement in our ability to understand Earth’s atmospheric processes,” - Dr Kamil Mroz, @NCEOscience.
