这篇文章的重点是一个研究项目，旨在探索极端天气事件在英国历史上的影响。这项研究利用了大量未出版的档案资料来构建极端天气事件，并探索了这些记录如何让人们深入了解极端天气影响所经历的不同空间尺度。它还考察了随着时间的推移，极端事件是如何被记录和记住的。对这类事件的记忆和反应的调查必须成为任何试图了解未来可能发生的事件的性质的研究的重要组成部分。如果我们能够评估不同情况下的不同社区可能如何受到未来事件的影响、理解和应对，这些天气事件历史也很重要。
This article focuses on a research project seeking to explore the implications of extreme weather events in UK history. The research draws on a wide range of unpublished archival sources to construct episodes of extreme weather and explores how such records afford insight into the different spatial scales at which the impacts of extreme weather have been experienced. It also looks at how extremes have been recorded and remembered over time. Investigations of the memories of, and responses to, such events must form a crucial component of any research that seeks to understand the nature of events that might take place in the future. These weather event histories are also important if we are to be able to assess how different communities in different contexts might be affected by, comprehend and respond to future events.
