Tropical Storm Ida is showing signs of veering towards the UK, and hitting the country with gales and heavy rain in 10 days time. It is now expected to knock out a high pressure system hoped to bring better weather to the UK, and end any hope of an Indian Summer. Furthermore, weather forecasters warn that Ida could mark the beginning of a two-month run of violent storms. This is being blamed on the strongest El Nino in history, which has already been linked to a number of typhoons in the Pacific, and is strong enough to throw the UK's weather out of kilter.
