UK\u2019s Met Office warned government that the 2024 summer could see 50 days of rain!<\/em>In the summers of 2018 and 2022, for example, Europe was hit by drought, and government-paid experts and media blamed man-made climate change. Many claimed that drought would be the future for British and European summers.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, the UK\u2019s&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.metoffice.gov.uk\/research\/climate\/understanding-climate\/uk-and-global-extreme-events-drought#:~:text=As%20global%20temperatures%20rise%2C%20there,determine%20future%20UK%20drought%20risk.\">Met Office warned<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As global temperatures rise, there is a risk drought will become more frequent in the UK.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/s10584-021-03100-5\">Data available here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Winters across the UK are projected to get wetter, while summers are expected to become drier. However, it is the distribution of this rainfall that will determine future UK drought risk.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Today: prepare for \u201cat least\u201d 50 days of summer rain!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ironically, it has just been reported by&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.lbc.co.uk\/news\/uk-set-for-50-days-of-rain-in-one-of-the-wettest-summers-in-over-a-hundred-years\/\">news site LBC here<\/a>&nbsp;that the Met Office now has warned the government \u201cto prepare for at least 50 days of rain in the next three months, leading to fears over further flooding in the UK and dashing any hopes of a warm British summer.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>All the talk of climate-change induced droughts has shifted to drenched summers!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cLast summer saw 40 days of rain, but the Met Office expects this summer to be even worse, jeopardising popular summer events such as Wimbledon, Trooping of the Colour, Royal Ascot and many festivals including Glastonbury,\u201d&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.lbc.co.uk\/news\/uk-set-for-50-days-of-rain-in-one-of-the-wettest-summers-in-over-a-hundred-years\/\">LBC adds<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>More rain and more drought in the summer<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The reason for all the expected rain, according to the LBC site: global warming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cClimate change is largely to blame for the UK\u2019s wetter weather. As the atmosphere warms, it holds more moisture \u2013 around 7% for each degree.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ironically, the wettest ever summer ever in the UK occurred in 1912, which saw rainfall on more than 55 days. At the time, the UK was about a degree Celsius cooler and so the atmosphere was capable of holding 7%&nbsp;<strong>less<\/strong>&nbsp;water.
