    I'm hoping tonight will prove better for us.   All in all, after the mild blip (?) for us although looking dry it will be very cold under the high.   I think us Scots will have to be a little more patient before we see any worth while snow.  Looks as if it will be quite a lengthly cold snap though.:)

    The stuff lying outside the now doesn't look like going anywhere as well with temps at or just above freezing for the next few days.

  2. Here is the Met Office data from the 1971-2000 average:

    You can toggle around with the different climate variables, months and different regions of the UK. :)

    Ahhhh, thanks! According to that, the two locations seem to be pretty much the same. Im thinking maybe Dundee will have a slight advantage in terms of snow showers and general coldness due to being further north than Dunfermline.

    Thanks again!

  3. Not totally sure if I have this in the right thread but didn't want to start a whole new thread just for one wee question. Basically im wondering if anyone knows how much it snows here in Dundee? I know it's pretty low down and sort of close to the coast (to the river). Im just wondering because I last winter I lived in Dunfermline, a good bit above sea level and somewhat more inland than Dundee (ive moved to Dundee for Uni). Just basically wondering how these two locations will compare in terms of temps and snow days?

    Thanks, Stu :)

  4. dunno about cold returning just had a lovely storm here.

    brillant lightning im hoping for more of the same.

    but on the other had bit cold with wintry showers would be nice aswell.:)

    Surely the weather you are having right now doesn't define the weather for the future?

    But back on topic, when does the UKMO come out? :cold:

  5. A blip or a trend? BFTP (and others) has posted on this frequently in the TOORP thread and the technical TOORP thread and is convinced that the jet going south is a long term pattern change. It's early days, but I tend to agree with this - this type of winter (though not perhaps its severity) could become the norm. Unfortunately, it is likely also to mean a greater number of rubbish summers (i.e. cool and unsettled) so it's a bit of a curate's egg. It looks like more of a 1960s/1980s long term pattern has kicked in and on previous form this could last for a couple of decades - just as the M****n W****r did... :whistling: (wonder how Ian Brown's book is going?).

    As ever though, time will tell and the weather will do what it wants.

    This I agree with. I know absolutely nothing about weather except the basics and how to read models and such, but I do believe it's just patterns, or cycles even. We'll get a batch of warm years of winter weather, then cold, then warm, then cold.
