These pages contain information about one of my favourite interests, the British weather. In particular, these pages contain information about extreme weather events in Britain, and a record of the British weather since 1900.
Few things fascinate people more than the weather.
I have always been interested in the British weather - particularly in extreme weather events. My first weather memories are of thunderstorms, in the London area in 1961 or 1962. The British Isles are one of the most interesting places in the world in which to live for exciting weather. The weather is particularly unpredictable here. We live in the battleground where maritime and continental weather often fight.
