From forecasting electric currents that protect our energy grid, to navigation for defence systems, the work of the @metoffice supports the UK's energy security.

If you need me, I'll be in the other place. I got in a while back so I've the blissful simplicity of my own name as my handle. No extra words, numbers, letters or symbols. Ahhh. See you there.
Great to finish off the week by joining @PermSecMOD, Simon Case and Richard Cornish at #CivilServiceLive. Lots of useful discussions around development, innovation and making the most of the incredible organisations in the South West like @metoffice and @UKHO.

Our great @aidanweather gave some top tips but @abenaopp was a natural 🌟
While visiting @metofficeUK Minister Oppong-Asare @abenaopp practiced her weather presenting skills in the studio.
Her visit marks the 10th anniversary of the pioneering Space Weather Operations Centre.
Kudos and thanks to minister @abenaopp who was up before dawn and trekked across the country in the rain to visit us @metoffice HQ today and see first hand how we're supporting @cabinetofficeuk and the resilience community.
I love working at the @metoffice, I can see how we make a difference every single day. So it's heartening to see this borne out in the stats too #WhenItMatters #PublicService #Proud
Did you know the Met Office returns £18.80 for every £1 of public money invested?

After tonight at Chequers my forecast would be for sustained improvement in the weather…thanks to @Keir_Starmer and @SimonHarrisTD
What a result - well done @England! And so great to see local boy Ollie Watkins shining on the world stage ⚽🎉🏆

Great to see the fascinating weather forecasting story behind D-Day featured on tonight's ITV News at Ten, brought to life by our wonderful Catherine Ross. Stagg's diaries from the time show the weight of the decision on his shoulders - and what a call to make #DDay80
D-Day and the weather forecast that changed the shape of history
