Supporting passage from source
A network of drifting buoys equipped with barometers can help improve weather forecasts of extreme Mediterranean storms by providing crucial atmospheric observations from areas of the sea where measurements are scarce. A new study published in the Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society provides the first assessment of the impact of these observations during Storm Harry, which affected the Mediterranean region in January 2026.
