    And yet neither ECM nor the GFS show it being as bad as that at the same time, there's different positioning on each of those too. In other words, it's a week away and still too early to be sure how that will develop. It may end up further north, weaker, etc. Wait and see and don't assume the worst based on one run from one model.

    But the GFS 00 does look like a shocker for late July. In fact you can't polish a big brown one. Why do people here always have to belittle others just for saying what a model run is showing when its unsettled? I bet you wouldn't have said anything if the poster said it was heatwave, sunny and hot next week? Fact remains, no matter the positoning of the trough its looking largely cool and unsettled at least for the next 10 days.

    Wasn't 2007 and absolute shocker from around 2nd May through to August Bank Holiday? With heavy torrential rain most days including two or three serious spells of rain in June and July. I remember a dam nearly bursting in Sheffield and people being air lifted from a flooded retail park on the 25th of June.  Tewkesbury cathedral was flooded in July.  Can't say I've seen any of that this year nor is it being forecasted. 

    June 2007 was a warm month though similar to this year. Just like then, we are stuck in a rut with no hint or sign of a way forward, at least this year we've managed to avoid the floods so far.

  3. At the end of the day (a crap fest day) we're just a tiny island off the Atlantic ocean and right now we are just being a tiny island off the Atlantic ocean. Vibes of 2006/2007 , with 2022 being the 2006 and 2023 being the 2007.  Soon be September a month when the Atlantic takes a slumber and the Jet stream quietens down. 

  4. I think Summer has failed to install correctly. And is stuck at a certain percentage and only way out is closing down the system and performing a fresh install from scratch, possibly reformatting all drives first. Because waiting for a failed install to complete is never going to happen...   

    Roll on Winter 2023....Summer is officially now written off in my book.

  5. Latest GFS 0 does offer a glimmer of hope with a push of the Azores but its day 10 range so lets hope its sniffed out a pattern change and not going to be pushed back..  I can't believe just four weeks ago we were laughing at troughs at day 10 being pushed back and back saying they won't happen, just ignore and how it all looked 2018'ish. It's just amazing how quickly the pattern can suddenly flip.

    ?? In this day and age aren't temperatures mostly above normal as opposed to below. Just had the warmest June on record etc etc etc

    Yes i forgot about June being warmest on record, where on earth did that come from? Out of nowhere... You'd expect the warmest June on record to be part of a classic hot and dry summer not one that's looking like a write off.   Julys highest CET and Augusts were all part of memorable hot summer times.

    Gfs keeps the unsettled  conditions right throughout as it as done so since it’s runs predicted this big change last week …….

    Its a dreadful run it must be said.  That bullseye green blob just sits over us for days and goes nowhere and the op remains right below the average.  A poor first half of July on the cards if this run verifies.  However lets not whisper 2012 in case it triggers the usual suspects .... plenty of scatter in ensembles offering a warm up so nothing is nailed down.

    There’s really no getting away from it both GEM and GFS are really poor in the next ten days with several deep lows at various times crossing the country. Very little in the ensembles to suggest anything else or support the warmer GFS 06Z run from earlier. 
     

    The next week or so really could bring the most disturbed period of summer weather we’ve seen at least several years, often windy, cloudy and cool. Potentially wet across the NW and even multiple spells of rain in the south. Pretty awful really. 

    The sad truth is its been long coming, a dreadful pattern like that has to emerge at some point to  challenge 2007/12 . We can't go on forever calling those summers the worst years and we have to, at some point, call a period of summer weather the worst since 2012.

    GEM showing how a westerly, Atlantic driven pattern could still bring hot conditions to southern areas next week due to high pressure never being far away and increasingly hot air over southern Europe. Very hot on this run 🥵

    That has to be impossible, such a massive difference of 850s in such a short distance.
