Could be an interesting night for some possible thundery showers for the South Coast on Tuesday night, looks like there could be some beasty showers with hail and decent lightning potential. Id happily take that if theres gonna be no snow! -
Model Output Discussion - Stormy Period Inbound...
Stormyking replied to Paul's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
Right then, some very interesting weather times coming up on the charts, especially with this storm that looks on the card, be interesting to track. Also like the fact alot of the models seem to have snow for quite a few places next week, even near the South Coast! Interesting model watching times ahead! -
Model Output Discussion - Stormy Period Inbound...
Stormyking replied to Paul's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
Still a rather unsettled period indeed on the latest 12z, and into next week aswell again, it doesn't actually look particularly mild either, with some snow in some parts of the UK, especially further North! -

Again same Morning, tried something a little different, using the frost on the bushes which actually was coated by the freezing fog! Everything looked like snow! -

Same Morning, but we travelled to get right into the thick of the freezing fog, whilst the sun rose and shone through the fog, made it look incredible! Completely new experience for me! -

What a stunning stunning Morning this was, couple of days just after Christmas, woke up with temperatures at -6'c, the frost and the freezing fog made everything look so so beautiful! -

Same Evening 2/01/2015, wee looked the other way as the sun was still setting, the moon and the redish skies to our North or NE made things look really nice, so thought I would also use the monument and the houses in the shot with the moon. -

This was from Friday 2/01/2015, The high cloud and some small cumulus made the sunset look rather lovely, and was good for some decent photos, I remember at the time it was quite cold with Temperatures around 6'c -

Stormyking replied to martthefart's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
People may think im crazy but as a neutral weather enthusiast , I love all this chop and changing with the charts, be it showing mild or cold. Anyways, Next couple of days, nice ridge of high pressure over the UK to give some lovely sunny days and harsh frosts at night, I for one am not complaining! Coldest bit of weather in 2 years! Nice crisp frosty weather with this chart All change as we head into the weekend, with some weather fronts bringing some more wetter weather, which i dont mind at all either! Things look to be going really unsettled for a time by the looks of it as time goes on, but after this weekend i think is all up in the air, so im not worried about anything, still not even in January yet! This would be rather nasty though :O -

Coldest and frostiest night in 2 years! Some places on the IOW reached -5'c wehre alot of others averaged between -2 / -4'c, woke up this morning to pure frost and ICE everywhere, looked amazing! and looks like the same tonight! -
Well then todays 12z runs are rather different indeed, for anything remotely cold the GFS P looks the slightly better option, but still not great to be honest, This weekends cold shot looks on the cards still though with all models trying to come to some sort of agreemant. However after that really is all up in the air. GFS P: GFS OP: UKMO not as keen: GFS OP seems to go into almost Bartlett territory, looks rather mild indeed and very flat, but is all in FI so time for change! GFS P: Looks very unsettled with some very nasty looking lows right through FI. Everything really is all over the place at the moment, though as a neutral follower of the weather im enjoying this roller coaster ride!

Model Output Discussion - The Run In To Christmas
Stormyking replied to BlueHedgehog074's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
That low at 180, would sure to bring snow to quite a few places, even as far as the south coast as passes through as the colder air gets sucked down all over the UK! very interesting run indeed! -
Model Output Discussion - The Run In To Christmas
Stormyking replied to BlueHedgehog074's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
Hmm the heights on this run over Greenland isnt as far west as the 06Z, if anything its slightly further east and sort of South, interesting run so far, this could go anywhere! 12z 18z -
Model Output Discussion - The Run In To Christmas
Stormyking replied to BlueHedgehog074's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
Hmm I dont really know what to think to be honest, see the GFS normal and GFS P went through a dodgy little patch the last few days, and have decided to go back to more colder and better heights again over Greenland, where as the ECM was the one showing better signs for colder weather the last few days when the both GFS looked dodgy for a time. Now all of a sudden, they have swapped round and its now the ECM that doesn't want to come back on board with colder weather. Admittedly in my eyes the ECM does look the most strange and not as plausible as the others, but I can't discard it as easy as some others, due to the fact of the GFS norm and P had been like recent days. However personally I reckon it will be more of a colder and drier theme over more Southern areas, but better risk of snow over Northern and Eastern areas just after Christmas, but we shall see, this is just my opinion from ive been seeing this last week. Lets see what the GFS 18z shows this evening. Come on Pub run please be drunk! -
Model Output Discussion - The Start Of Winter
Stormyking replied to Paul's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
Some very interesting and eye candy runs of recently, GFS P have noticed keeps coming up with all different ideas, from Greenland highs, Strong Atlantic Highs and now a 2013 style looking Scandi High with Easterlies. Either way there does seem to be trend of something colder after Christmas. Still a while out, so am not getting excited about anything yet, either way its very encouraging. ECM too showing good signs building north towards Greenland, nice too see good agreement on things from most of the Models. -
