This collection offers 4 parameters at 33 available height levels (5m to 6000m) from the Met Office UKV 2km deterministic forecast. This is a high-resolution gridded weather forecast for the UK, with a resolution of 0.018 degrees, projected on to a 2km horizontal grid. The data is available as NetCDF files. ## Height Levels Available height levels, in metres (m) above ground, are: * 5.0 10.0 20.0 30.0 40.0 50.0 60.0 75.0 100.0 125.0 150.0 175.0 200.0 225.0 250.0 275.0 300.0 350.0 400.0 450.0 500.0 600.0 700.0 800.0 900.0 1000.0 1125.0 1250.0 1375.0 1500.0 1625.0 1750.0 1875.0 2000.0 2125.0 2250.0 2375.0 2500.0 2625.0 2750.0 2875.0 3000.0 3125.0 3250.0 3375.0 3500.0 3625.0 3750.0 3875.0 4000.0 4500.0 5000.0 5500.0 6000.0 6750.0 7500.0 ## Coverage area The forecast covers the UK and Ireland, with the following latitude and longitude coordinates for each corner of the included area: * Southwest: 48.8643°N, 10.6734°W * Northwest: 61.3322°N, 13.7254°W * Northeast: 61.6102°N, 4.3408°E * Southeast: 49.0594°N, 2.4654°E ## Timesteps The following time steps are available: * every hour from 0 to 54 hours * every 3 hours from 57 to 120 hours ## Update frequency There are three lengths of model run, each with its own update frequency: * Nowcast: forecasts the next 12 hours and are at 0100, 0200, 0400, 0500, 0700, 0800, 1000, 1100, 1300, 1400, 1600, 1700, 1900, 2000, 2200 and 2300 UTC. * Short: forecasts the next 54 hours and are at 0000, 0600, 0900, 1200, 1800 and 2100 UTC. * Medium: forecasts the next 120 hours and are at 0300 and 1500 UTC. ## Archive length and latency As of December 2025, the archive contains data from December 2023 onwards. Forecasts will continue to be available for at least two years from their data date. The data is typically available 3-6 hours after the model run time. ## Technical specs The data is available as NetCDF files. NetCDF (Network Common Data Form) is an interface for array-orientated data access and a library that supports the interface. It is composed of 3 components: * variables store the data * dimensions give relevant dimension information for the variables * attributes provide auxiliary information about the variables or dataset itself NetCDF is used within the atmospheric and oceanic science communities and is network transparent, allowing for it to be accessed by computers that store integers, characters and floating-point numbers. Iris supports NetCDF files through reading, writing and handling. Iris implements a model based on the CF conventions, giving a format-agnostic interface for working with data. Find further support on using Iris with NetCDF files. ## Help us improve the data services we offer Join the Met Office research panel to help us understand how people interact with weather and climate data, uncover challenges and explore opportunities. ## How to cite UKV 2km deterministic forecast was accessed on DATE from the Microsoft Planetary Computer (https://zenodo.org/records/7261897). ## License British Crown copyright 2023-2025, the Met Office, is licensed under CC BY-SA. ## Providers Met Office See all datasets managed by Met Office. ## Contact [servicedesk@metoffice.gov.uk](mailto:servicedesk@metoffice.gov.uk).

Temperature greater than 30c degree. days (current) This dataset shows the current risk presented to sites across the UK from temperatures which exceed 30c degrees per day, based on data collected from a 1981-2010 baseline period. The dataset shows the likelihood of a temperature hazard event distributed across 5km hexagonal grids.
