How does the Met Office predict storms?
The Met Office uses sophisticated computer models and a powerful supercomputer to process billions of weather observations daily. This data, from satellites, radar, and weather stations, helps them forecast conditions like the 70mph winds expected in Scotland. These complex calculations allow for accurate predictions of weather patterns.
