Overview

According to the 2020 Annual Report for Atmosphere [3], this rate has varied between 42 and 55 percent over the last five years, which is consistent with the peer review study cited above. The 10th Anniversary Special Issue featured 18 peer-reviewed papers that could be categorized broadly into four topical areas, (a) societal impacts and modelling, (b) sub-seasonal and seasonal climate variability, (c) synoptic meteorology and case studies, and (d) instrumentation and operational techniques. The system is automated and ingests forecast data, but human forecasters can adjust the warnings. Since 2005, an analysis of the heat warnings in four cities has shown no trend, but does show variability consistent with severe heat waves. The surface temperature anomalies (STA) typically had an associated quadrupole structure that correlated to each NAO dipole tilt, which then had an influence on the temperature advection patterns as well.
