Tue 6 October 2026: The Daily Weather Summaries and Daily Climatic Data sections of AWN are now functioning to the new normal. There is still tidying to do and some gaps to fill which will gradually be completed as I have time.

Information on the changes and reasons for them is here. The help pages for the DWS Records and DCD sections will be updated during this week to include changed information. They are here: DWS Records Help and DCD Help.

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.
