If you lived in the UK in 2024, you probably noticed the weather was a bit…dramatic. Record highs, record lows, torrential rains, howling winds—it seemed like Mother Nature was throwing everything she had at the British Isles. And now, Channel 4 is here to recap the meteorological mayhem with Britain’s Extreme Weather 2024.
This documentary chronicles the wild ride that was the UK’s weather in 2024. From flooded villages and cars blown off roads, the hottest May on record – it was a year of extremes that tested the resilience of the nation. The Met Office, no doubt exhausted from issuing constant severe weather warnings, plays a starring role.
The program utilizes a mix of archive footage and user-generated content, offering a visceral, on-the-ground perspective of the year’s extreme events. It’s a chance to look back, perhaps with a shudder, at the storms, floods, and heatwaves that dominated the headlines.
Britain’s Extreme Weather 2024 airs Tuesday, December 31st at 5:45 PM on Channel 4.
