Soo what do u think of our chances here on the iow?? Although we are in the advisory tomoz the met office app shows heavy rain for us ugh n thought Thurs was more midlands?? Praying we get some lol
I think we may get a bit of snow, don’t think it will amount to much but we are in the game. I think by tomorrow will have a better idea!

Yes in agreement with most, I have a feeling we may well get a wintry mix tomorrow but nothing to get excited about - I think ice could well be an issue in places.
Thursday into Friday looks more interesting and hope we all get lucky at some point.
lets hope the tentative signs of an Easterly come to fruition!
Heres to snow days fingers crossed and let’s hope to build a snowman
️ my 2 and half year old will love it! Come on snow gods be good to us Western and Southerners!!!!!

It has been a very mild start to winter so far, I can only remember one air frost here this year. Let’s hope the New Year brings us what most of us crave a cold and snowy spell of weather.
happy new year all!

True. I meant no offence and everyone just went mad. I didn't even mention cold weather. I said according to long range models the major pattern change won't be until late Jan and so many mis quoted me tonight
But it would help if you showed some charts to back up what you are saying, all I have seen is comments which could be interpreted as a wind up. It would help people like myself who struggle to interpret charts to see where you are coming from, and it could be that you are right. Instead all that happens is the cold v mild arguments ensue, where as if you are able to provide charts to back up what you are saying then nobody can really have an issue!
FWIW I believe the models will suddenly start looking increasingly promising in the next few days as BFTP would put it #winterofdiscontent!

Why has this thread turned into the I told you so and I knew better thread?
None of these charts have verified yet and will more than likely change by the morning anyway.
I believe we will end up with a halfway house and the ECM will move towards the GFS a bit. I also believe this is the first bite of the cherry and further down the line (early December) we will begin to reap the rewards!

Sunspot blank days 176 now, so bigger than 200 well in sight and I am of the opinion that this is NOT cycle 24 Minima as that is 19/20 for me. Jetstream really meridional and further clear signs of that. I’ve said I’ll update more re potential dates of note, lunar modulating looking favourable and solar activity could be of extra interest too with an unusual high number of Earth facing Coronal Holes.....further jetstream meandering. I’m thinking more and more that this winter ‘might’ match a 20th century great.....winter of discontent?
BFTP
It is refreshing to see people share their thoughts, I couldn’t dream of making a forecast, I really do hope you are right and kudos to you for being so bold with your thoughts.
I do believe that the low sun spot activity will have an impact on our weather, fingers crossed that you are bang on with your prediction. #winterofdiscontent ??
