A Force of Nature

These are the most breathtaking images from previous years of the Weather Photographer of the Year competition, an annual contest held by The Royal Meteorological Society.

They depict dramatic weather phenomena from every corner of the globe and often reveal fascinating stories about their impact on human society.

Each image has been selected by a panel of meteorologists, photographers and photo editors who look for a combination of skillful camera work and meteorological observation.
