Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.We explore the relationship between dryline intensity, convective activity, and the regional circulation over southern Africa during summer by comparing weak and strong convective drylines with each other. We find that strong drylines result in stronger convection with up to 3.6 times more lightning strokes adjacent to the dryline than on weak dryline ...

International Journal of Satellite Communications and Networking, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The use of frequencies above 30 GHz (millimeter waves) for communication purposes is nowadays a necessity, both for terrestrial (e.g., 5G/6G) and satellite links. One reason is the need for more bandwidth and the fact that “traditional” frequency bands are already fully occupied.

Weather, EarlyView.This study documents the unseasonal and prolonged heavy rain events which occurred in southern China during April 2024. In this series of extreme rainfall events, Guangdong province recorded extreme rainfall exceeding 6‐sigma of climatology, with eleven cities reporting record‐breaking rainfall.

Do the public take action when a severe snow warning is issued?
Weather, EarlyView.Extreme weather events pose significant risks to the population, making timely warnings essential for preparedness. The UK Met Office’s National Severe Weather Warning Service (NSWWS) has issued impact‐based alerts for over a decade, yet evaluations of their effectiveness remain limited.

A month's worth of rain in a day?
Weather, EarlyView.Phrases like ‘a month’s worth of rain in a day’ make for dramatic news headlines. But how often do such events occur? Are they more likely in certain locations or seasons? And can we expect more in the future? Here we examine these questions for the UK using observations and high‐resolution model simulations.

From scores to causality and confidence: operational acceptance of AI weather forecasts
Weather, EarlyView.This paper argues that the operational value of machine learning weather prediction (MLWP) cannot be assessed through verification skill alone. Instead, acceptance depends on support for the core functions of operational meteorology: understanding, translating and communicating. Current MLWP systems show strong performance but lack the interpretability,

More rainy days at Science Garden station, Metro Manila, Philippines, 1961–2025
Weather, EarlyView.Daily rainfall at Science Garden, Quezon City, Philippines, was analysed for 1961–2025. By 2025, fitted trends indicated about 25 more wet days than in the early 1960s, including 13 more days with at least 20mm and six more with at least 50mm. These increases were significant, while the largest 1‐ and 5‐day totals showed no significant trends.

CFD and experimental modelling of an impinging jet for thunderstorm downburst simulation [PDF]
, 2006 A thunderstorm downburst in its simplest form can be modelled as a steady flow impinging air jet. Although this simplification neglects some important atmospheric and physical parameters it has proven to be a useful tool for understanding the kinematics ...
