  1. Thanks, still no mega freeze but better than the Tmax I was looking at lol, I class a mega freeze as 0c and below by the way.
  2. Whilst March could well turn out below average temp wise the ECM 32d day certainly doesn't suggest a mega March freeze. Any low level snow i feel would be reserved for North England upwards, maybe on the odd occasion over the highest hills of Southern England. March could also turn out be wetter than average (the wetter further South you go).
  3. Yes I mentioned yesterday the Scottish ski resorts would be happy, I do feel though that any Northerly will be watered down nearer the time as is usually the case and Scotland and the very far North of England will be the only real area to benefit - not that i begrudge them of course
  4. And tying in with the ECM 32 day of Southerly tracking lows, this would mean it would be wetter than average to, especially in the South. Below avg temps and Southerly tracking lows at this time of year doesn't necessarily mean snow though, especially in South.
  5. Bah humbug . Seriously though it must be quite a rare occurrence to see charts like this so late in the season
  6. Spring snow anyone?. The daffs would look lovely coated in snow, if they survived that is.
  7. BLIMEY Shame it is a million miles away in a far far away galaxy in time lol, Oh and the GFS and low res.
  8. I have been searching for some verification stats for the GEM and JMA and came across the below:- If I am reading this right then at the last verification date the best rated model is as follows (this is for America only I believe) 1, ECM 2, UKMO 3, GFS 4, GEM 5, JMA Hopefully I am not reading it upside down. It made me wonder why the METO hold the JMA in such high regard.
  9. OMG GFS has overtaken UKMO in the day 5 verification stats. Haven't seen GFS in 2nd place for a fair old while.
  10. I fear that this time of year we would need to time travel back to Jan to see anything long lasting and non slushy . or some absolutely extreme charts come to fruition.
  11. The first few days of official spring would bring moderate to heavy snow to Scotland on a fresh Northerly wind. I am sure the ski resorts would be very happy.
  12. GEM, GFS and ECM all show HP near to Greenland @ T168. It's gonna be close very close as to whether we reap any benefits. One thing is for sure in that it probably isn't gonna be mild for the foreseeable.
  13. I think you would find that the majority would want snow with it to, you only need to read the posts prior to see that Personally I am happy with cold and frosty, but wouldn't say no to some warm feeling days either
  14. GFS has daytime temps no higher than 5c for most parts right upto the end of the high res part of the run. ECM shows a slight warm up over the next 2 weeks but never getting above average. It would kind of feel like no mans land with temps not cold enough for snow but not warm enough for it to fell like spring either
  15. I wouldn't say we are odds on for a northerly just yet but the odds have certainly increased overnight. Its a long way to count down from T168 without no major dramas. Northerlys tend to be watered down to.
  16. I think so much hope is due to the fact it's probably the one last hope left for winter weather before we enter spring proper.
  17. The GFS could bow out of winter smoking a big fat cigar and sticking 2 fingers up to all the doubters (including me).
  18. The GFS has the HP drifting back to Scandi, shame there isn't a mega cold pool for us to tap into.
  19. The trouble is with March snowfalls especially down South is that as soon as the sun comes up it melts rapidly, that's my own experience of March snowfalls anyway
  20. Thoughts will be turning to next winter 2013/2014 after the mayday bank holiday . Only messing. If you stick around all year - there will be lots of tumble weed blowing around the thread but not any toys
  21. I see height's over Greenland both on ECM and GFS, but mostly blue's and Purple's which means it is only surface pressure and can quite easily be shifted by any LP's heading that way (this is what the more knowledgeable told me last year when i commented on exact same thing). It is only way out in FI on the ECM that you see the proper greens and Yellows pushing into Greenland
  22. Yes I noticed this to - it is currently in line with meto thoughts though - of course meteo thoughts can change as rapidly as the models though.
  23. GFS wants to continue to sink the high SE - if it gets this one right then it will be the first time it has lead the way for a long long time.
