I wouldn't let it bother you the Milldies will soon be crying in their milk when we have days of endless wind, rain and mild, LolI really want to nail this supposed coldie attitude I have, all I want i a spell of settled weather, ok it's cold but it's dry and sunny and with a stronger sun it's good for evaporating a lot of the surface water we had to contend with for the entire winter due the washout of last year. But it's still precarious and one above average month for rainfall could have areas like the south west back in serious trouble.
Weather shown in charts like this
must be avoided especially as they can continue to crop up over and over again.

Above 4.8, not that I'm that bothered either way as there are far, far more important things in life IMO.

All good things must come to an end Frosty, it's been a remarkable month and one which I'll never forget. Roll on winter!!The latest met office update still retains elements of wintry weather in the outlook but the main cold spell is heading for the exit this weekend, the ecm 12z last night has been the trend setter for today's model output so far since the ecm was quickest to end the cold spell. However, although we will be entering a milder regime next week, there will be colder intervals embedded within the more springlike pattern with polar maritime incursions bringing wintry showers at times to northern hills with snow on the higher hills and mountains of northern britain next week, especially early in the week and then beyond midweek, if I had to pick a particularly mild day next week I think it would have to be tuesday as the uk will probably be sandwiched within the warm sector of a depression in that timeframe with temps dipping somewhat beyond then but the backbone of this epic cold spell will be well and truly broken by sunday/monday.

For all those banking on a warm spring summer, don't look at the CFS, Lol.

Ignore the 06z, well we are told that in winter so the same must apply the rest of the year.The gfs 06z are starting to show a return to more typical spring weather with a good southerly influence developing.

Good luck with your new venture GP, may it be a successful and prosperous one.

Down here in Wrexham in the hospital I'm under care at, there are a axing scenes for this time of year. There is at least a foot of lying snow with no thawing taking place whatsoever. The beginning of the snow line was also remarkable, from nothing to a foot within the space of a few yards, amazing.

I think it's time to bow out of here, as usual the climate forum becomes a slanging match. I'll stick with MOD thread from hereon.

He's not an expert in climatology though is he.He's the chief scientific advisor. His qualifications and research areas are in economics, population biology and sustainable energy. Seems very much suited to the job I think.
Not that the UK government listen to their scientific advisers much. Didn't they fire the chief drug advisor when they didn't like his advice on drugs, particularly cannabis!?

Apart from nuclear it's the only viable solution at this moment in time, no one in their right mind can surely think that wind power is the way forward, or can they.Exactly RP. It's amazing (indeed scary) how little our decision makers know about fracking and its consequences. I heard a local Lancashire MP mention the prospect of our county having in the future a landscape of "nodding donkeys'.
It's only when people make an effort to investigate, that the real horror and indeed the leg pull of this industry hits them. And of course its serious impact on climate change seems to be nobody's business. .The industry is dangled as a cure for all our problems by various commentators -- comments slipped in here and there. Alas the Beeb has always to present "balance". which means irresponsible and uninformed people get air time.

What nonsense, what about all those cold springs of the past, still there's lots of money tied up in AGW so any tentative links are a sure way of grabbing some more funding.Scientists link frozen spring to dramatic Arctic sea ice loss

With all due respect I could have a degree in flower arranging but would that make me capable of advising government policy on fiscal matters?Like having a 'degree', part of it's use is to show that you are asble to read a subject to a certain level. Many folk use their degree merely to show this ability and not to secure work in their chosen field of study.
When folk are appointed to overview climate science (over many discaplines) the ability to read ,absorb and regurgitate the relevant pieces in a coherant way is more useful than being close up and personal in one area of science?
May folk posting in the blog/forum world are 'self taught' but this does not detract from, thier obviuos ability to absorb the science and make sense of where the findings will take us?
On the other hand folk who have decided, prior to reading new data, what their views are lead us to the Monkton/Watts type blinkered disinformation?
-
BFTV, when they are in a position to guide a governments policy then I will.Why don't ye two ever complain when "sceptics" with no relevant qualifications get air time?
-
Personally I'm enjoying this cold spell but what worries me is when we see a change to the upstream pattern, will it be replaced with a dry and warm high or something far more unsettled which could end up eating away a large chunk of the Summer as well. These patterns over the last few years tend to become blocked for 2-3 months, so any change in the longwave pattern that follows will probably stick around for some time, fingers crossed it's the dry and warm high we see.
-
Indeed, it's frightening that someone with no scientific background in climate science is allowed to dictate what our governments policy should be.He had influence in government that why he gets air time on the BBC.

Snowing heavily here and accumulating on grassy areas, temp 2.6c.

That is Gav RP, only joking Gavin, or am I.I think we need to recruit this guy, to our cause, gav...We will overcome!
-
Lol, it would take all of two minutes to read each output.Now, where would we possibly find that many folks whose analysis is 'unbiased'?
-
So that would explain the decline in land fall hurricanes decreasing would it, as well as their intensity.

Although I'm not a big believer in religion, I never discount anything, as in that man thinks he has all the answers something always comes back to bite him in the ass.. An open mind too all things is required, the trouble is too many are closed minded.
-
I think we only need to look above for the answers CC, as in that big shiny ball of fire that we are barely getting to grips with now. Regarding the -PDO, this also is a big player and since it turned into it's negative phase in 2007 we can only expect a cooling net effect over the coming years. A correlation between the PDO and solar activity and it's overall effect on global temps is the key for me.If you look at the height anomalies for the NH you can see there's been a complete reversal.

By heck John you sure know how to put the cat amongst the pigeons with a question like that.those two charts are pretty amazing with a considerable change over a good many areas on the globe.
I wonder what is the cause of such a change?
-
My twopence worth is, " I don't care what others think if I enjoy extreme weather". If it upsets you join another forum, preferably one which involves no sense of danger.
-
A few snowflakes in the wind nothing settling though, temp 3.1c. That's the mildest it's been at this time for a few weeks now.
March 2013 How incredible was it for you.

Best month of the last twenty four by a country mile.
