  1. The models showing no sign of an end to the unsettled regime that has gripped the country for what seems like months on end and as I type yet another band of heavy rain moves in from the south west. Fortunately nature has a way of evening things out so one would hope that sometime soon the models start showing some promise of a prolonged spell of drier, warmer weather. This bad run has to end eventually. Cheers all.
  2. Yes Nick and more importantly it ties in with the met office outlook for late January into early February. I have a feeling this winter is far from over!
  3. Thanks for the reply Kasim. I always try to remain positive, always looking for best possible outcomes, probably from years spent playing golf Thanks for your much valued input.
  4. I don't share much of the despondency in here this morning. The up and coming week offers very cold temperatures, plenty of snow for Scotland and the far north, a band of snow coming from the north west affecting Northern Ireland, north Wales, the north west and possibly getting as far as the midlands then a midweek band of snow that could affect southern England and possibly south Wales. If all this comes off I would say it would be a decent end to a pretty decent cold spell
  5. So a midweek shot at snow for the snow starved south before things maybe turn milder at the weekend, although still time for that to change. With the met office long term outlook still looking positive for plenty more cold shots before January and February are out. All in all a pretty positive outlook for cold lovers and still a position we'd have killed to have been in during many a previous drab, mild winter
  6. From an imby point of view it's a dream chart but as others have said a shift in the cold south a touch would be ideal. Anyway cracking runs from the ecm and ukmo this morning. Plenty to be positive about. The possibilities of plenty of cold, snowy fun for everyone to be had
  7. I don't know of the verification stats but personally if I wanted two models on board it would be the UKMO and the ECM.
  8. As a 13 year old living in the west country near the coast of the Bristol channel it's January 1982 for me that sticks in the memory. We'd already had a fairly snowy December and then more bitter cold set in early January leading to a huge two day blizzard starting on January 8th. We ended up with 60cm of level snow with huge drifts completely covering the hedgerows down the lane we were living in. Bitter temperatures continued for a week after. We were snowed in for days and I loved every minute of it I'm hoping to see the like of it again
  9. I wouldn't worry about anything showing temperatures in double figures in ten days time. Highly unlikely to happen. My take on the models is cold for a few days, then a couple of days less cold then much colder weather from the north/north east. I must say hats off to the met if this is the final outcome
  10. Even to my untrained eye that's an absolute beaut. If the weekend brings constant charts like this I would expect major upgrades for cold in the met office outlook come the start of next week
  11. It works both ways though. Some post day 10 charts to prove the coldies wrong. I agree totally though that caution is always advisable until things come into the reliable.
