Wed 5 Aug 2026: The changes to the Daily Weather Summary and Daily Climatic Data sections of AWN are taking longer than anticipated. The switch to new sources of data has required more reprogramming than I thought would be needed, but the work is about 75% done. When the new programs are complete, all DWS and DCD data pages for this interim period back to 7 July will be recreated.

For more information on the changes and the reasons for them, go here.

OCF forecasts and other parts of the site are not affected.

This yellow box will update as changes are made.

Weather, climate
and site news

The reports here summarise weather events and climate news, including a round-up of their media coverage. They are archived in the relevant day's Daily Weather Summary to help make it a more complete record of the day's events. Timeliness of the reports is entirely at the mercy of my available time so, for the most up-to-date information, make good use of my media links here.
