I was surprised someone as experienced as Marco even put that tweet out yesterday…..based on that clearly outlying ukmo op run last night, which has vanished today. The outlook was uncertain yesterday and uncertain today…..nothing has changed! -

Well, I don’t live in Crewe! The last 5 days here have been 14/13/13/11/17c, during which I have recorded 0 hours of sunshine. That might be some sort of record….absolutely disgusting for the longest days of the year. More like October or November -

I’m getting fed up with Eastern European countries that have similar averages temps to the uk just constantly getting decent summer weather year on year while we mop up the crud. Siberia hot again, Russia hot, Baltic hot. Finland hot. Pretty much everywhere except here. UK is now one of only 3 countries in all of Europe to not see 30c yet this year, what a surprise… -

GEM eventually anchors the low to the sw by Sunday, which advects warm s/se’erlies up from the continent, with temps up to 25-28c. Such slim margins. -

I’m gonna go with trough dominated. It usually wins out in the kind of situation, low of sod and all that. -

Yeah it’s a stupid modern term. A holiday can be a holiday in the UK, and was for the majority of people for many years. Only since European travel got cheap this got flipped and if you had a UK holiday it was a staycation. -

Pretty unacceptable to be honest for high summer. Been rancid since that hot day last Wednesday. Another cool-ish one tomorrow before Wednesday warms up a tad. -

It does happen on occasion! Lots at play still here. Until that trough gets pinned down anywhere could end up with anything! ECM Ensembles have gone all M People this morning - Movin' on up: Top two ECM clusters look reasonable, the 3rd one looks disappointing with a regressed high and low pressure dominating: -

To be honest - I haven't got a clue! Any one of them could be right I guess. The 120 hour UKMO fax chart for 12z Friday (published last night) I would expect to change when updated today though. I mean just look at the differences compared to the 00z op run: -

Well this is most unhelpful! The Big 4 at 144 hours, all looking different: ECM develops into quite a nice run though. West based high, so the best conditions tending to best west of the UK/Ireland, while cooler air feeds down the eastern half. Eastern coastal areas could suffer with very cool temps in this set up stuck in the low to mid teens: -

Unsurprisingly the 00z UKMO looks nothing like last nights run. The vanishing trough from yesterday has re-appeared more akin to other model output. As the low sinks south it starts to advect warmer air up from the SE: -

Yeah - a good indication of not to use 850s as the only guide for heat. You’ve got them at 17c on the south coast, but highs only in the mid 20s as cooler air cuts over the top. Still - I’d take that in a heartbeat after 4 days without any sun at all here and temps stuck at 15c! -

Think UKMO is wrong in dissolving the low too quickly. ECM isn’t bad as it clears through into the weekend and day 6 onwards is decent enough. -

ECM going ultra aggressive with the trough at 144. Look at GEM at the same time: Night and day. More runs needed! -

Looks a bit odd with a warm 850 NW flow there. High building east doesn’t really fit global patterns at the moment, so I’d expect it to stay more out to the west. It’s just if it can extend its tentacles out and keep us more settled. Not overly warm though. Could ask be fairly disappointing in many areas next week with a trough sliding down. Exact position will determine who does well and who doesn’t. West looks best. -

Next 3 days forecast here are 16/16/14c, and that after 15c today and 13c yesterday. Only 5-8c below where it should be for mid to late June. No sun either. Could easily pass for an early October day. -

Not that at all….when you get a chart so far off the other output, it’s usually an outlier. As these charts above show. -

Horrific ecm. Gotta be an outlier! -

Unexpectedly good 144 chart. Again relies on some precise trough splitting either side of the UK but would be most welcome after the deluge today and the coming days!
