"One problem we have with understanding the decline in sea ice is that the decline is very small compared to the seasonal cycle." Hear more from Dr Ed Blockely, @metoffice Hadley Centre about the decline in #Arctic sea ice in our #MostlyClimate podcast🎧👉https://t.co/DuDTKXgOm6

New research shows extreme rainfall like that seen on 3 October 2020 could be 10 times more likely by 2100 because of #ClimateChange

In our current climate these events are already 2.5 times more likely because of human influence

Much of Scotland’s landscape is dominated by mountains, but how do they affect flood forecasting? Met Office climate scientist Mike Kendon looks at how mountains affect rainfall in his post on the Scottish Flood Forecasting blog https://t.co/kK5X3FHhnN

Another record broken!
💦3rd October was the #WettestDay the UK's ever recorded
💦It rain across the whole of the UK
⬆️The average rainfall was 31.7mm
🌊The volume of water that fell could overfill the UK's largest lake-Loch Ness OR fill 3 MILLION Olympic size swimming pools

🌡️👀It's the hottest day of the year so far.....

and the temperature will rise further this afternoon

An intense area of high pressure in the North Atlantic will dominate our weather this weekend, and could challenge some March pressure records for the UK

[Met Office @metoffice]

How high will the pressure get?

Here's the chart from 1902 when we recorded the highest pressure over the UK, 1053.6 hPa in Aberdeen. This weekend, the pressure is rising and we could get over 1050 hPa for the first time since 1957 and maybe even close to the 1902 record
