The chance of cold and dry weather increases with the event A once-in-a-250-year weather event is about to hit the UK, bringing with it bitter winter temperatures. A Sudden Stratospheric Warning event usually strikes every two extended winters. But this year the UK could see an ‘extremely rare’ trio of them.
This included the ‘Beast From the East’ snowstorm which led to the deaths of 17 people in 2018. Professor Scaife added: ‘Although this is very rare, we also found that the chance of multiple SSW events is increased… and so the chance of multiple events this winter is raised.’ The chance of cold and dry weather increases and 70% of SSW occurrences are linked to cold snaps The process typically takes place up to 31 miles above the earth’s surface, meaning we don’t notice the effect on the ground.
