Um, when you throw climate change into that, there is a certain lack of control we might have, whi- which is why these exercises can really help because we are going to be seeing more extreme weather.

We unfortunately can't control the weather, but the, the job of the Met Office is to warn and inform the public and emergency responders and all the groups we've talked about that there's something coming.

Uh, we're trying to give you advan- advance notice.

We're trying to let you know how this might impact you, and that's what the, the Met Office weather warnings that, you know, some listeners might be f- well, hopefully listeners will be familiar with.

They are yellow, amber, and red, and it's to give, uh, as much notice as possible.

And sometimes that story changes as well.

You know, there might be low confidence, um, and as we get closer to the event, that confidence, uh, improves, and we might go from an amber or, in the case of Storm Éowyn, a, a red weather warning, or the first-ever weather warning that we had in, um, January 2025.

Even with the heat, you know, there are a lot of vulnerable people out there who would struggle in the heat.
