A mild-mannered satellite ground station doing space since circa 1960s. Weather satellites our forte. NASA, JAXA, ESA, ISRO, etc. we've done them all. Theme song? "Cowboy Man" by Lyle Lovett. Drink? Yorkshire Tea.

An exceptionally deep extratropical cyclone for the time of year just west of Ireland. 953 hPa on the 12 UTC Met Office analysis. Helping drive strong warm advection to its east which has brought exceptionally high temperatures to parts of the UK yesterday and overnight ahead of the cold front.
