A quiet winter means there were no locally-named storms this year but there is still time.
But 2022/23 is the first time that no storms have been named by the organisations."The position of the jet stream for most of the winter meant the UK and Ireland have been mostly on the stable side," said the Met Office's John Wylie.
"This has resulted in the Atlantic storm track being further north and west than normal, with a higher than average incidence of high pressure.""I would say it is just natural variation," said Mr Wylie. "A jet stream reset will take it well south later next week so there is still time for named storms yet."Although the spring and summer months are normally quieter than winter, there have been five named storms in previous years during the seasons.
