A hypothetical weather forecast for 2050 is coming true next week

Analysis by Angela Fritz, CNN Senior Climate Editor
Updated 4:46 PM ET, Fri July 15, 2022

(CNN)Two years ago, forecasters in the UK conducted an interesting thought experiment: What will our forecasts look like in 2050?

The climate crisis is pushing weather to the extreme all over the world,
and temperatures in the northern latitudes have been particularly sensitive to these changes. So meteorologists at the UK Met Office -- the official weather forecast agency for the UK -- dove in to the super long-range climate models in the summer of 2020 to see what kind of temperatures they'd be forecasting in about three decades.

"Not actual weather forecast," the Met Office's graphics said. "Examples of plausible weather based on climate projections."

Well, on Monday and Tuesday, the "plausible" becomes reality -- 28 years early.
