  1. Gibby mentioned cooler north atlantic sourced air by week 2, I would go along with that and have said as much in the last few days, indeed, I would go further.. with the jet veering from the current sw/ne alignment to more of a direct w/e...it wouldn't take much to tilt it more wnw/ese or better still..nw/se and draw winds down from greenland through early to mid november, that is what I think will happen, the week ahead =  unsettled &mild / very mild, week 2 = unsettled & average trending cooler, week 3 + = unsettled, colder shots with wintry showers and night frosts.Posted Image

     

    Aye Frosty., it's looking like next week should be the last of the mild/v mild weather that we have had to endure over the past few weeks, to a much more seasonal pattern for Autumn, Which is what the models have been hinting for a number of days now, and with growing support. Posted ImagePosted Image

  2. Is it so difficult to not post this propaganda rubbish in the sceptic thread?

    It's not like it's a specific response to a point raised.

     

    I have removed it myself 4 as wrong thread, but calling it propaganda rubbish is beyond me.

     

    Where on Earth do you get your information and stats from ?

     

    And anything can be posted in this thread, whether it's regarding a specific point raised or not, as long as it's on topic ok.

  3. I wonder what impact the increase in solar activity will have compared to the last few winters when it's been low, I understand it is going to be moderate this winter, also, the atlantic SST's are above average..just a few of the factors to consider as we are just over 5 weeks from the start of the meteorological winter. : - )

     

    Yes Frosty., Solar activity has been very low throughout this Solar Cycle 24, taken in isolation the 2nd peak of this predicted max starting to show now, how strong and how long this 2nd peak will last is unknown. But this coming activity should have no bearing on our weather when taking into consideration the lag effect, with such a quiet sun over the past few year's during this Solar max it's this that will have an effect on our weather this winter, much like the past 4/5 years.

  4. GREEN COMET, RED PLANET: Comet ISON, which will fly through the atmosphere of the sun on Nov. 28th, is now flying past the planet Mars. The green comet and the Red Planet are just 1o apart in the eastern sky before dawn. Parks Squyres photographed the odd couple from his private observatory in SaddleBrooke, Arizona, on Oct. 16th:

    Mars is almost as bright as a 1st-magnitude star, easy to find in the constellation Leo near the blue star Regulus. The comet, on the other hand, is invisible to the unaided eye. Mid-sized backyard telescopes are required to see it. http://www.spaceweather.com/

  5. Solar Activity continues to grow and continues look like the start of the predicted 2nd Peak in Solar Cycle 24, with lot's of C class flares & minor M flares one of which was only a few hours ago from sunspot 1861 producing an M1.2 flare off the West limb, so any CME from this should escape Earth.

    We could be about to see some big flares over the coming days, with an extremely active region of spot's coming over the Eastern limb
