Thank you for the thorough answer Tamara..... I am very sorry that your knowledge of this did not commute into my brain as you lost me on the second paragraph... But a proper sincere thankyou for the excellent posts you do all year round....

Thank you for the answer.... Every day is a school day.

Hello folks...... Looking at that ecm 240 chart, my untrained eye cannot see what some refer to as a spoiler low. Say somehow that this chart were to turn out as shown, would I be correct in suggesting that there would be nothing to stop the high finally reaching upwards towards the pole? If this then happens, then what would stop that segment of the vortex just to our east getting pushed further east, instead of dropping into southern Europe? I just thought that high pressure would be more stronger if it covered the whole expanse of the Atlantic ocean up towards the pole. If the answer seems to obvious to some, then please forgive me

Most folks who enjoy the cold are liking the charts this morning. But if you think you understand the models enough to post your thoughts, then back up your post with a chart please. I don't get much time to learn about reading the models with shifts and other commitments. I do find it very tough sometimes to judge whether someone's getting carried away or they have made their judgement from reading the charts. Happy Friday everyone !! FATCHAD .

With reference to shedheads last post. Did some posters say last week that the models will fluctuate and probably show zonal until the vortex has relocated over siberia /Russia? Just asking
