The UK season is likely to be stormy and unstable for the rest of the winter
Winter is defined as December, January and February in meteorology.
Till now we have a real mixture of unresolved weather with five designated storms, but we also had an important cold snap in early January.
Recorded at Altnaharra with 18.9C, on January 11, Highland it was the coldest night in Britain for 15 years.
Comprehensive snow and snow caused disintegration across Britain.
However, long -range weather forecasts are indicating contrary to the rest of the winter.
An active jet stream – rapid moving air in the atmosphere appears to be a major driver for high -weather conditions and is likely to bring consistent low pressure systems in North -West Europe.
In its three -month forecast, the Met office suggests that the possibility of effects of wet and air season increases compared to normal, especially in February.
It also states that “the rising risk of storms leads to the higher risk of ‘storm clustering’, affecting the UK in quick succession with frequent events”.
DTN, the forecast provider for the BBC weather, also suggests that “the risk of disruptive air incidence is likely to occur, especially during February”.
