2 Introduction We re starting our bulletins earlier than usual this year, as the warmer weather is starting to make us realise that we have already had a lack of rainfall in many parts of the country. Press and TV have been reporting the effects of dry weather on river levels and crop growth, and although this may be driven by a need to talk about something other than election promises, there is solid evidence behind the headlines: for the UK as a whole the last six months have been the driest in 2 years. So what does this mean for subsidence claim numbers later in the year? Well, as we normally point out, the current situation does not dictate what will happen in the latter part of the summer: it s the rainfall and temperature in July/August/ September which is the critical period. Hot and dry and the subsidence potential rises, cold and wet and all bets are off. However the drier the ground starts off, the more severe the potential consequences if we do get prolonged dry weather later on. What is the situation now? England enjoyed its third mildest March ever, and for the southeast, no March has ever been warmer. For much of the UK, daytime temperatures averaged 2 C above normal and whilst nighttimes were relatively a little less warm, the number of air frosts for England was still the lowest ever with many places in the south recording none. Sunshine was well above average everywhere except in the southwest and south Wales. Rainfall was close to the average for the UK as a whole but this disguised significant regional variation. Northern England and Wales were relatively wet, whilst northern Scotland, East Anglia and the South East were notably dry (e.g. 44% of normal rain at Manston, Kent). Hence for the UK as a whole it has been the driest six months in 2 years. Looking ahead, for the rest of May and into early June, the Met Office advises that it will be unsettled in the northwest, but drier, brighter and possibly very warm in the southeast. Temperatures will tend towards the seasonal average, or will be slightly below this for some, with chilly nights possible. Into early June it appears more likely that high pressure will dominate across the UK, bringing largely dry and warmer weather for most. (Met Office update: 11 May 217) We are collecting MORECS data on soil moisture content, and our WeatherNet team are mapping the trends in maximum and mean temperatures, rainfall, and hours of sunshine. At this time, we all have to acknowledge that the claim numbers this year can go either way but based on current forecasts we d expect either another normal year for subsidence instructions, or quite likely something busier. This would give claim numbers at least in the region of 17,-2, matching the average (based on ABI published data). It may be more. We ll continue to monitor the forecasts and provide you with another bulletin in June. You can be assured that whether 217 ultimately proves to be a normal year or above or below average, we have the resources and planning in place to adapt and flex to whatever the summer produces, as we were able to demonstrate during the small uplift in claim numbers experienced last autumn. Disclaimer: The above is not intended to be a definitive guide to the actual new subsidence claim numbers to be expected in 217 and use by a third party is entirely at the user s risk.
