The Icelandic Volcano, Eyjafjallajokull, started erupting on 14th April 2010. The volcanic ash cloud produced covered much of Northern Europe for several weeks causing extensive disruption to air travel. The UK and European atmospheric communities had many instruments - both airborne and ground-based, remote sensing and in-situ - taking measurements of the ash cloud throughout this period. This dataset contains measurements from high resolution radiosonde.

UK Met Office charts analyses pertaining to Mean Surface Level Pressure and 24 hour Weather Frontal Forecasting for the UK and Western Europe. The charts in this dataset have been produced by the Met Office's GPCS Commercial Suite and covers the period 7th June 1999 to 24th June 2014. At this point the Met Office turned off that service and switched to providing images produced by the Met Office's SWIFT system using VisualWeather (available as part of a separate dataset).

UK Met Office charts analyses pertaining to Mean Surface Level Pressure and 24 hour Weather Frontal Forecasting for the UK and Western Europe for the 00 and 12UT forecast runs. The charts in this dataset, at time steps at T+00, 24, 48 and 72 hours, have been produced by the Met Office's SWIFT system using VisualWeather, following a switch from the feed provided by the Met Office's GCPS Commercial System (see related dataset). The data in this collection cover the period 30th June 2014 to present, though initially with some data gaps.
