A rollercoaster of weather extremes: Drought and heat waves are creating UK's climate whiplash
The UK is bouncing from one type of extreme weather to another this year. This is climate whiplash. Caused by changes in the fast-moving body of air high in the atmosphere called the jet stream, climate whiplash has become more likely with climate change.

The UK is bouncing from one type of extreme weather to another this year. This is climate whiplash.
