Weather Snap 12 Mar 2021

The Met Office takes a weekly look at the science behind the UK and global weather headlines. Presented by Clare Nasir. This week, 10 years on, we hear how UK scientists tracked radioactive particles blown by the wind during the Fukushima nuclear facility incident and we have advice from the RNLI on staying safe at the coast as heavy waves continue to pound UK beaches. The Met Office is the United Kingdom's national weather service. Our website carries the latest UK and global weather forecasts, detailed information on weather types, climate science and UK weather records for previous months, seasons and years. www.metoffice.gov.uk
