As Johnny doesn't mind, I'll post Liam's series on Atlantic hurricanes. I know this thread is UK weather, but I thought it was an interesting subject; sometimes, the remnants of these systems get caught-up in the jet stream and deepen as conventional deep areas of low pressure which then affect us, so there is a tenuous UK link anyway. Here's part 1:

Very interesting indeed, thanks for posting Chris.

Agreed - it's a subject I'm unfamiliar with (tropical meteorology), and it's a good reminder that, near the equator, the Coriolis Effect is much weaker than here in the mid-high latitudes. You wouldn't get a net easterly flow here in the manner of the Trade Winds!

The week ahead, with an ex-tropical storm possibly helping shift the jet of the north of the UK, which is where we'd expect it to be for much of the summer months, by the end of the week:

Further to the above video, here's an image from Liam's Twitter account showing how the tropical storm might get caught-up in the Jet, thereby making it more meridional:

If it's ' Tropical ' does that mean the driving rain we've got will be warmer ? Pretty please.

Possibly, Johnny - there should be some warm air in the system.
