Be good if the good old Met was aware of the feedback....Hmmmm......John?
-
Yes I like the way he said about Friday's LOW, and I quote, "it looks like this might be the last". Really confident about it
, made me think that he wants some wintry weather.Mind you its a very open statement without a timeline....last for a day, a week,...ever
Good work BW, be good to do that every week.

what an absolutely first class presentation today by Peter Gibbs.
Not the weather that cold lovers would wish to see but I defy anyone to complain about the quality of the presentation.
Out to Friday with an Atlantic synoptic chart, not static, but the developing situation being run through on the graphics. So fronts, lows, highs, along with the isobars for each day, then a UK chart showing rainfall moving across followed by temperatures, and throughout his own summation for each day.
Probably about the best I have seen.
Yes, the Atlantic continues to dominate as the GFS runs show. A few brief colder interludes shown, with snow clearly visible on the ppn maps, chiefly for northern and western hills but shown as far south as northern England around mid week. But the main emphasis is for rain and wind with Wales highlighted as probably the worst affected area not just today but through the week for high rainfall.

Couldn't agree more John. A top forecast by the top forecaster.

/me waits for a new thread to appear as per every year on when the seasons officially start
Winter solstice happens around 22 December and marks the start of winter. From then on, the days start getting longer.
Well done Bilz :blink:
but thats a wee off topic...
I Think reading everyones posts and looking at the meto forecast - they are making a very fair call.
Yes ok it did make me laugh how they've sat on the fence for most part of the forecast - but they did hint towards a colder winter.
"The current forecast has moved away from our early signal for a mild winter, and there are signs that the trend towards a colder winter outlook may continue as emerging signals become established"
And we are only in september, Alot can change in the coming months, And as we all know its very hard 2 predict the weather, even a week away (T144) is only really worth looking at for trends and comparrison. I would imagine even our very own LRF-ers have gotten it wrong - and who here is right 100% of the time? I know im not.
I dont think we should nitpick at the meto for this fact. Even more so given La nina was forecast if im not mistaken at the start of the hurricane season and now with higher then forecast SST's - El Nino has taken affect.
Only time will tell and fair play to the meto for braving a call and admitting their early signals were wrong so they changed it.
Could many of us actually sit here and say 100% certain what will happen in detail??? And be 100% accurate. I doubt it (no offence to the actual forecasters here of course)
Could never agree more Mr.S
After last year the METO got it 100% right IMO after others got it 100% wrong
lets be honest whatever the MET predict be it mild or cold they have access to more info than everyone here has,,,if they predicted the new ice age then they would be god on here..(sure John will back me on this) but at least they have had the guts to release their thoughts as they appear at the moment.Without the MET most here would not koow what they do...don't knock them.....last year shows who knows best??

Hi,
I have been taking note of the Ensembles charts being posted lately.
I have no problems locating the charts and can fully understand what they are saying, however there never appears to be a key with them i.e. which models are represented by which line. Does one exist? or could someone please explain?
Thanks

Paul,
Do you need your car cleaned?? your house cleaned?? Its sorted..
I have been going backwards following all the advice given and then finally when I got to page 1 I realised that whenever I logged on to the E-Mails I have recieved from the forum it recognises me Whats different?? My internet savings are www. net-weather.com whereas me E-mail savings are www.co.uk Having now tried this it recognises me every time ..Please dont ban me Thanks ..KT
Thundery...Have you checked??
-
My problem is probably that, although I like to think I have a fair knowledge of weather..my knowledge of I.T. is the same as Michael Beetie's knowledge of grammer

That may be worth a go

Sorry Paul..I know you are are probably banging your head against a brick wall by now...But could you try one last time to let me know how to sort this problem out in leymans terms..and I mean leymans
I even tried going back to the other side tonight, what a mess : KT
-
Sorry to chuck a spanner in the works ..but I have had exactly the same problem..This site just does not recognise me any more where as others do.
KT
Just to add..Its not a major problem re-logging on..Just thought you may like to know its not an isolated incident.

Hi Nick,
UKMO also trending towards the ECM with pressure rising to the NE.
Definately appears to be a growing trend of pressure to the NE. I bet there aren't too many who complain if the first one came off?
