Snowboard Tennyson IOW

Could someone explain what "utter pap" is please? Is this some sort of new model I need to look out for!?!

Freshwater Isle of Wight a few centimetres of the white stuff, still falling. Not wet mush either. Still all to play for for the rest of the week for something more significant. Happy days â„ï¸ðŸ˜

I am findimg the MOD thread hilarious ! Everyone knocking chunks out of each other!?! Spraying up the walls like a heated springer!! Quite interesting how people continuously contradict themselves based on daily model output. It was 48 hours ago ish that the Easterly was being touted about then the models flipped a bit and to my untrained eyes it now looks like a cold Few days and then back to PM air. Tomorrow will bring further change and hopefully the easterly will start to re appear on the charts in the coming days. The Daffodils in the garden are hopefully being lured into a false sense of security!!!!

It is very interesting watching the daily posts ranging from excitement at potential of cold arriving,then within 24hrs the posts swing back to disappointment when the models throw in a milder or slack set of runs! Human behaviour I will stick to some of the detailed posts that predict cold I have read and enjoyed, and keep my fingers crossed that we are just turning a corner.. Mid December onwards is going to be pivotal. Some of the runs are suggesting the Azores high pushing east and looks to cover a huge part of Europe including the Uk, temps to my untrained eye look seasonal with a westerly flow?? Could anyone explain what the set up would deliver.

Storms and floods in Southern France ! Southerly jet responsible? Reminiscent of our weather last year. Let's hope these signals progress and provide some long term blocking. An Easterly always brings us white stuff eventually down south.

Yep all very 2013/14 - models consistently flirting with cold Way out of a reliable time Frame ! Forget the models just look out the window.

I have been viewing the forum and taking it all in for 2 years now, mainly winter as I love the cold and snow, I am now attempting to join the debate so bare with me. This pattern at 240 Looks interesting, northerly? Dragging cold down to Northern Europe.

Agree with we need a northerly to set in for a while and then (early mid December) the beast can arrive! Not quite getting the bit about the vortex and being loaded to "our side "if the hemisphere!?! Yes agree it's a nice looking split and a huge improvement on last year if it progresses, however we are so vulnerable to so many variables it's still too far out for me..

Low single figures by day sub zero by night!! Takes a lot for this down South but I am confident we are in for a cold one.. Blocking from early to mid December please

Although I am keen to see this winter develop into a cold and snowy one I remain cautious, there are hints from reading posts and viewing models of November delivering something cold,however it's very much out of a reliable time frame (again). Last year gave continued false hope (say no more). The overall pattern is exciting though with lots of signals for potential Blocking, OPI a like.
