Having lurked about this forum for the last 3 years i could not help but notice the faith that a lot of people put into the infamous glosea model (does it really exist )my point is that there was no mention of how mild (warm) this whats going to be record shattering December or the record amount of rainfall that there has been. not one of the short/ medium /long range model forecasts predicted this.Dont get me wrong i for one am pleased about this for when i see mild dross charts out to ten or so days it doesn't mean that its going to happen

Light snaw on here as well.Its been a perfect winters day max -1c after a low of -5.6c

Hello i was wondering if any of the models were forecasting the euro slug high pressure being about for as long as it has and also the well above average temperature air circulating within it .myself im just a newbie to all this model forecasting stuff but i couldn't help but wonder if the effect of all those politicians talking nonsense and all the hot air wafting from there mouths in paris has got something to do with the current set up maybe someone with a bit more knowledge could advise. Ps there's a family of field mice just moved into my woodshed to escape the winters cold poor little things hope there's milder weather forecast for them

I wish you guys would stop winding up all the people who read the Scottish regional forum with photos of snow and talk of temperatures hovering around the freezing mark and Buzz words like sleet hail thunder and lightning .I've been looking in the model discussion forum the last couple of weeks and it's all talk about bbqs shorts and t-shirts and beaches even woodsheds I appreciate a good windup as much as the next person but enough is enough . Currently 1.5c and heavy sleet showers with a raw icy wind

Thanks ss that basically confirms what I thought

Another lovely day here in the trossachs main st in Aberfoyle was flooded this morning and a couple of the local shops have a bit of mopping up to do pretty bad but certainly not the worst I've seen. I was wondering if sombody more knowledgeable than myself could help me with a question .can the river forth in aberfoyle which is at least 30-40 miles away from Edinburgh be at all affected by the tide im blue in the face arguing with local EXPERTS saying the flooding is totally controlled by tides i believe it is just down to how heavy the precipitation is and how much snow melt anyone with any input would be much appreciated

Heavy wet snow just now temp 1.7c down from 2.9c at 7:30 autumn is over let the fun and games begin another polar maritime winter would be nice from an imby point of view

Hope you guys enjoy the Indian summer over the next couple of weeks.After spending all summer working in the rain thought i would treat myself to a sunshine break I'm off to majorca on monday.The forecast looks better in costa del callander this weekend

has ann summers not been selling battery powered synthetic biology for a number of years now

lovely spell i would quite happily settle for slightly below average nice morning bright and breezy 17.1c feels very warm (hot) in the sun

that's because you're downwind from me and I managed to get my washing in that's been on the washing line for a fortnight

Just out of interest was there any tornadoes or funnel clouds reported over this week if so has anyone got any good photos

This heat is getting unbearable I'm going to have to take my jumper off cloudy calm 20.4c ( midges are loving it)

13.2c and drizzle after reading some of the temperatures you guys are getting this morning I've realized it's happened ground hog day forever .enjoy the thunderstorms today and tomorrow looks like drizzle for me

Breaking news a strong Elnino is forecast this year disrupting weather patterns all over the world floods violent storms record heat droughts (EXCEPT IN SCOTLAND) where it will just be PISH.Nice morning after a cool start 2.6C min last night

That fruit king azores high drizzle and 11.2c a nice breeze keeping the midges away the only positive

If i could get rid of one weather phenomenon living in west/central Scotland it would have to be the azores high. Mild drizzle muck in winter warm drizzly midge muck in summer. At least it has it's fanboys/girls in the model thread. 12.8c and drizzle NICE

Lovely spring day here today max 16.2c felt nice in the sun .Still no biting midges yet 1 bonus to a cool spring

Maybe it's just me but Scotland seems a lot brighter today (most of it) bathed in a nice yellow glow.Have the tories banned us from talking about the weather

Some nice photos from todays snowfall guys cant believe its only 8 weeks until the longest day then we start creeping back towards winter

Heavy wet snow here just now slush on grass temp 1.9c cold wind

Just seen the weather on bbc news 24 17:55 looked like most of Scotland will be getting snow on Monday did anyone else see this or am i just looking through snow tinted glasses

Man my cheeks are sore (facial ones) after all those tounge in cheek comments yesterday feels like I've blown up 100 cheap ballons.sorry back on topic its amazing how 12cm plus of snow can dissappear in a matter of hours lovely spring day today 9.8c max from a low of -1.3c

only about 50m asl right at the bottom of the highland boundary fault when it snows up on the surrounding hills it sometimes makes it right to the valley bottom back to rain /sleet again 1.8c
