  1. I take offence at my posts being removed :)...there was nothing unfriendly... You might want to pop over to the model thread where the toys are currently being ejected from the prams as the latest offerings from the models chop and change

     

    Your post may have been fine, but it would have looked a bit out of place on it's own when the rest of the conversation you were commenting had been removed!

  2. If you fancy putting up the Christmas decorations on the forum you now can - just head down to the bottom left hand corner of the page, click 'Change Theme' and choose the Happy Christmas option:

    This skin will work fine on desktop and most tablets, but it's not especially mobile phone friendly I'm afraid. 

     

    Hope you enjoy using it  :smiliz19:

  3. Can I ask. Why is the operational GFS run different to the average/mean GFS run (sorry if thats not the right words but you know the one I mean. 

    I would (ignorantly) think that the operation run would be the average of all the gfs members? that that would be how they come up with the run?

     

    The GFS is run at a different resolution to the ensembles and is a separate model, it's a single deterministic model rather than a multi-member probabilistic model. 

  4. Apologies for the downtime on the forum today, there was a fairly major failure on one of our load balancers which has yet to be sorted, so we've moved to a new load balancer with a new ip address.

     

    This means that in some cases it can take up to 24 hours for the the new ip address to update across the net, so if you're here already welcome - it'll be a fairly gradual process until everyone is over!

  5. is it really? i've heard this said before on here but never really given it much thought. Do the METO use it in their long range forecasts? If was that decent then surely they ought to?

     

    On the flipside, NOAA and the NCDC do appear to have faith in it, spend time/money running and updating the model so if there was no value in it, you'd think they wouldn't bother?
