    I don't think I can be bothered anymore to be honest.

    Some members are so fixated on snow despite already having several snow events that they've now turned to sniping. There's still plenty of us who haven't had so much as a sniff of a flake of snow yet and we're doing the least amount of moaning.

    No point in moaning .. think all of us in the Purbecks have come to expect it over the years anyway!

    Quickest summary I can do to help you and anyone else out. 

     

    • Easterly Continues to later this week.
    • Atlantic Low blows in from the west, however retains enough cold air to fall as snow across the west, midlands, south west and possibly push eastwards.
    • The cold bed over the UK then breaks up the Atlantic low, with a Scandi high return us to frigid cold weather afterwards.

     

    Literally coldie fanfic charts. 

    Many thanks for that! .. that'll do for me! .. Fascinating regularly checking into the model output! .. I'm getting there deciphering my ECM's amongst  GEFS's and my FL, undercuts and of course the good ole Scandi high! A code of your own but love it!

  3. Nice reading and sharing all the excitement with you all and the lack of sleep!,As per normal for us Dorset Folk the masses of snow never came but hey we'll bounce back (probably with a scorcher of a summer bringing the hoards of holidaymakers onto our SUN SOAKED BEACHES !).Great to chat to a few fellow dorset peeps as well and look forward to hopefully typing away on here again before the spring arrives.drinks.gif Dorset Apple Cake or Devon Scrumpy? lol

  4. I think in a model output discussion thread it's best to look at the models for what they are showing, be it mild or cold, and regardless of whether one's preference is for mild or cold. I don't think categorisation of "mildies" or "coldies" helps the situation. There are plenty of other threads available in which we can focus on our own preferences. A modest amount of commenting on personal preferences is fine, it just becomes problematic when it starts interfering with people's judgements of what the models are showing, or results in a cascade of one-liners like "ECM is good" and "GFS is dreadful in Formula One FI".

    After all, the "newbies" often come into the MOD to help improve their understanding of how the models work, and to get an idea of what the models are showing- they aren't going to get much help if they see a load of posts that are only looking for cold solutions!

    Very good point,I am new to all of this and due to the recent snow have become interested in GFS model output etc.Last week whilst trying to understand the GFS model outputs I asked a very sensible question as to reading the GFS on this site and just wanted reassurance that I was on the right lines.Unfortunately didn't get one reply back just countless comments such as "can't see where this next cold spell is coming from" or "possible re-load from 24th Jan" etc.I would imagine in extreme weather condition times as of recent, forums like this pull in huge amounts of people that then like myself become interested in other aspects of the weather so it would just be nice to involve all people,even 'newbies' that need a little help with model readings etc on this forum after all it is titled "General" model output discussion. Otherwise now regularly enjoying this forum and the many excellent posts that have been written.good.gif
