TODAY'S WEATHER ACROSS UK & EUROPE By Mark Vogan

Heat gets removed from France and Germany as rains become more widespread, Scandinavia heats up

As a large upper trough becomes entrenched over the UK through tonight and tomorrow and digs into France we will see increasingly unsettled weather over the UK as well as a cooldown and increased and more widespread rain chance across Spain, France and through Germany while Romania, Bulgaria and the Ukraine heat up. The western trough and eastern ridge appears set to hold and persist through much of the upcoming week. 

TODAY'S WEATHER ACROSS AMERICA By Mark Vogan

Houston broils once again in the 100s, 90s set to return to Mid-Atlantic & Northeast


The storm system which produced the record rains across California will deepen the trough over the west and push the upper level ridge that's sweltering the Plains will push east. By Wednesday and Thursday, the 90s will return to DC, Philly, NYC and even up to Boston.

Severe Weather Threat remains from Billings to Chicago


VAGARIES OF THE WEATHER
INDIA & SUB-CONTINENTAL ASIA WEATHER
BY RAJESH KAPADIA

Hot conditions return to Pakistan, NW India and Gujarat on Monday, 6th June: 


Highest in Asia and Pakistan: 49c at Sibbi, Jacobabad, Larkana and Sukkar.

Highest in India: Bikaner at 47.9c and Jaisalmer at 47.5c.

Gujarat heated up to above normal temperatures on Monday. Bhuj was 45.6c, Deesa 45.4c and Idar at 44.4c.

AS-1 update as on 9.30 pm IST : AS1 lies at 18.7N and 71.5E and is upgraded to a "low" status by IMD. Its core pressure is at 1002 mb and wind speeds at 25 knts. A minute improvement from our last update.

IMD feels a good chance of it improving to a depression status, and move NW.

Improve it may, but will it hit land as deep system, or fizzle out before hitting land ?

We have to watch and see if the off shore sustains now or "defaltes" in the next 2 days. This would determine the SWM advance above the 18N line.

Mumbai had a couple of showers in the morning, and a sharp shower in the evening with lightning flashes in the NE skies. 3mms at Colaba and 1 mm at S'Cruz.

Max. temperature today at Colaba was 28.9c !

Tuesday: Partly cloudy with 2/3 showers. SWM advance will depend on position and strength of trough now. For more, click here!
