CONTEXT:

The Met Office is the National Weather Service for the UK, providing internationally-renowned weather and climate science and services to support the public, government and businesses.

Like millions you probably know us best for the weather that you hear on the news or read on your phone. But did you know that our forecasts reach from the bottom of the sea to as far as space? We own one of the largest supercomputers in the world? Or that organisations across the world – from governments and the military, to the NHS and utility companies, rely on our expertise to operate safely and efficiently? We even provide forecasting services for sporting events, such as Wimbledon. Through world-leading science and cutting-edge technology, through idea generation and enthusiasm, we collaborate to challenge the ordinary every day.
