Hurricane Erin is a Category 4 system that ripped through the Caribbean and is now steering toward the US East Coast. The storm brought strong winds, heavy rain and power outages across Puerto Rico and Cape Verde. While landfall in the US looks unlikely, coastal states are still on watch for high surf and surge that could affect beaches and marinas.
Across the Atlantic, Erin’s remains are set to hit the UK after a brutal summer heatwave. Meteorologists say the low‑pressure system will bring cooler air, showers and a shift in wind direction. Expect a few days of unsettled weather, especially in the south and east of England.
Another major system, Storm Éowyn, triggered a Red Warning from the Met Office. Winds are expected to gust up to 100 mph in parts of Northern Ireland and Scotland. The storm will also toss heavy rain and snow into the mix, so keep an eye on travel plans and secure any loose items outdoors.
April’s mini heatwave pushed temperatures to 26 °C in southern England, a rare sight for early spring. This warm spell came from a burst of tropical air that also brightened the skies for events like the London Marathon. While pleasant, it sparked isolated thunderstorms as the heat clashed with cooler air aloft.
Later in the summer, a more intense heatwave lifted parts of the UK to 34 °C. The Met Office linked the extreme heat to climate change, noting how such high temperatures are becoming more common. Record‑breaking nights made it hard to sleep, and the heat strained power grids and water supplies.
What does this mean for you? If you own a sports car, high temperatures can affect tire pressure and engine performance. Keep an eye on the forecast, park in the shade when possible, and hydrate after a drive.
In short, the weather is shifting fast. Storms like Erin and Éowyn can arrive with little warning, while heatwaves are stretching the calendar. Stay tuned to this page for the latest updates, practical tips and brief summaries of each major event.
