Extreme weather has a profound impact both on our daily lives as well as industry. Being able to be forewarned of possibly disruptive weather conditions can be vital in both planning and safety.  OpenWeather offers a selection of weather alert solutions, giving you exactly the information you need, when you need it, for any global location.

SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) systems are now an essential element for managing and monitoring large-scale industrial processes, and often form the backbone of critical infrastructure and industrial processes. These systems provide user-friendly screens, giving operators a complete overview of their system, allowing them to remotely control equipment, change settings, and react quickly to any issues.

We are excited to introduce our individual Meteorological Service led by Mr. Dan Hart, Chief Meteorologist, who provides you with industry-specific reports and advice. He brings over 25 years of experience in the field of meteorology starting his career in 1995 with the UK Royal Navy. He has great expertise in Construction (high-rise projects and major infrastructure projects like dams and airports), Energy (demand forecasting, renewable energy), Film Production (location choice and scheduling, set safety), Marine (offshore construction and pipe laying, port operations), Logistics (transportation, demand forecasting), and many others.

Over the years, weather forecasting has transformed from an art based on folklore and intuition to a science driven by complex models and advanced observations. At the heart of this evolution stands the Met Office, a British institution with a rich history that laid the foundations of modern meteorology. 

In our latest blog post, we will take a brief look at the rich and fascinating history of the Met Office who is celebrating 170 years of weather innovation.

The arrival of Spring, seen by many around the world as a time for hope, spans many areas of our lives.
