Today marks 60 years of Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) at the Met Office.

This marked the transition of the Met Office into the world-leader in weather science and forecasting that it is today.

A national obsession or a way to break the ice?

Recent research claims that on average people say they spend over 2 days a year talking about the weather!

🚨Fulminat el rècord absolut de temperatura a Malgrat de Mar!
🌡38,8 °C avui, dia de St Roc, a les 11:11 hores, a l'estació del Servei Meteorològic de Catalunya.
⛱️Afortunadament, la marinada no ha trigat a engegar i ha frenat aquest pic del calor desbocada.
(Rècord anterior: 36,3 °C el 5/8/2018)

The truth may be puzzling. It may take some work to grapple with. It may be counterintuitive. It may contradict deeply held prejudices. It may not be consonant with what we desperately want to be true. But our preferences do not determine what's true.

🗼Avui s'enlaira el coet que posarà en òrbita un satèl·lit molt esperat: el primer Meteosat perfilador!
🌐 Quan estigui en servei, enviarà perfils verticals de temperatura i humitat sobre Europa i Àfrica, que implicaran un gran avenç en la predicció meteorològica!

On the day the @metoffice.gov.uk publish a new paper showing a rapidly increasing chance of 40°C days in the UK, the GFS produces a forecast ensemble member showing 43°C in a couple of weeks time. This is an extremely unlikely outcome but highlights that these types of temperature are now plausible.

87 years ago.

In April 1938, Guy Callendar published the first evidence from thermometer observations that the world’s land areas were warming.

He also linked the observed warming to the increase in atmospheric CO₂ from burning coal.

87 years ago.

The 2026 budget passback plan calls for eliminating NOAA Research, the scientific backbone that keeps weather forecasts, alerts, and warnings accurate and effective. This would have disastrous consequences.

My thoughts on why announced cuts to weather balloon launches are bad for weather forecasting. I tried to do some meteorology 101 too

Weather Balloon Cuts Announced This Week Could Harm Weather Forecasts
This week the National Weather Service announced reductions in weather balloon launches. Experts warn that could harm weather forecast accuracy, the economy and safety.
