There's going to be an increased level of uncertainty forecasting the UK's weather during the next fortnight. Why? As well as Hurricane Gabrielle, there's a high likelihood of two more storms developing in the coming days.

Hurricane Gabrielle is heading towards the Azores, hitting the islands later on Thursday.

This is Super Typhoon Ragasa. During the next few days, the typhoon will bring a risk of torrential rain, flooding, damaging winds and a coastal storm surge to southern China. It may then reach northern Vietnam. #weather #typhoon #china

St James's Park in London was the warmest place in the UK today, reaching 27.8C. The warmth is very brief, with colder air arriving across the whole UK by Sunday. Here's the warmest place in each nation.

Tropical Storm Gabrielle has formed over the tropical Atlantic Ocean. Weather models suggest this will eventually end up as a hurricane that curves across the Atlantic. This is likely to bring a lot of uncertainty to the UK forecast later next week.

There's a 90% chance of a tropical depression or something greater developing in the next week. Weather models suggest this may eventually end up as a hurricane that curves across the Atlantic. This is likely to bring a lot of uncertainty to the UK forecast in 10-14 days.

Much of England has had more rain in the first half of September than it did in the whole of June! Shoreham, West Sussex, has seen 94mm of rain in the first half of September. This is almost SIX times the 16mm it saw in whole of June. Click image to enlarge.

This map shows which year had the warmest summer on record, for mean temperature, area by area. Note that for many areas, it was summer 2025. 1976 is no longer the warmest summer on record for any area.

The UK has just had its warmest summer on record, according to the Met Office. The UK's top five warmest summers have now all occurred since 2000. What about the infamous long, hot and sunny summer of 1976? That's been relegated into sixth place. Blog coming soon...

During the next week, many of us will experience our last 8pm sunset until next April. It has already happened for some southern and eastern parts of England! We've been losing 3-5 minutes of daylight per day through August.

A quick read on Atlantic tropical storm activity picking up and what this means for the UK’s weather.

A quick read on Atlantic tropical storm activity picking up and what this means for the UK’s weather.

Following a quiet start to the Atlantic storm season, there are a number of potential and active storms to watch during the next seven days.

After hitting the UK and Ireland on 4th August, Storm Floris is now sitting over Norway - taking the wet and windy weather there.

Japan has a new maximum temperature record, with 41.8C reached in Isesaki - the second time in a week the record has been broken.

Scotland has provisionally had its strongest August wind gust on record, reaching 82mph at Wick Airport, according to the Met Office.

The daisy chain of cloud and weather fronts linked to the tail of Storm Floris stretch around 5,600 miles. If you could cloud surf, you'd end up in Bermuda! Image: Windy.com

The strongest gusts from Storm Floris have mainly been in Scotland. Here are the peak gusts up to 3.30pm.

After a quiet storm season so far, the Atlantic Ocean is waking up, with a number of tropical waves expected to leave the west coast of Africa during the next week. These are what can potentially develop into hurricanes. Statistically, the peak of season is mid-September.

Here are the strongest wind gusts on record in the UK for each of the summer months. 87mph is currently the highest gust on record in August, and probably where you'd least expect - recorded at Needles on the Isle of Wight in 1996.

There are signs of line convection developing on the cold front moving east across England and Wales. What does this mean? There's likely to be a narrow band of intense rain and gusty winds sweeping through - lasting 15-20 mins.

Here's the satellite imagery of Storm Floris during the past 12 hours. You can see the storm deepening quickly, indicated by the hook-like cloud wrapping around its centre. A view that wouldn't look out of place in autumn or winter!

The strongest gusts from Storm Floris have been in the north and west of the UK. Here are the peak gusts up to 12.20pm.

Storm Floris hits tomorrow, with disruptive winds across the northern half of the UK. An amber warning has been issued for central and northern Scotland, where the greatest impacts are expected. More here - weather.metoffice.gov.uk/warnings-and...

A heads-up for next Monday... Weather models are still showing a deep area of low pressure affecting the UK. It looks like it'll be at least unseasonably windy, but worst-case scenario, stormy. Details are still uncertain, but one to keep an eye on!

Thunderstorms are breaking out quite widely across southern parts of England this afternoon. Some places will see a lot of rain in a short space of time, with a risk of localised flooding and travel disruption. They'll gradually ease this evening...

Early next week needs close watching... Weather models are suggesting an unseasonably deep area of low pressure may affect the UK Mon-Tue. If it comes off, it could bring troublesome wind strength for the middle of summer.

Tropical Storm Co-May is expected to hit eastern China on Wednesday.
