The UK has been severly affected by storms Dudley, Eunice and Franklin in less than seven days, which were predicted with startling accuracy for much of the UK. The weather forecast isn't always so accurate though. Ghalia, Aneeqa, Jennifer and Antonia discuss what weather predictions mean for transport, heating and air conditioning (AC) and why it may not always be accurate. Ghalia explains how the water industry needs to forecast the weather decades into the future so that agriculture and sanitation can be supported while Antonia references how renewable sources of electricity are dependent on wind and gas. The team also discuss how geoengineering can be used to control the weather and climate, and debate whether such control is good for humans and the environment.
