Remember hearing some muted voices during June about July 2023 being as bad as 2012 as most of the long-term signals were similar to that infamous July of 2012, goes to show that in terms of forecasting nothing should be off the table!
The low-pressure system seems to remain around our locale for the foreseeable taking us well into mid-August. Since being in the country for about 17 years I can't recall a hot second part of August. But it's likely that September and October will be at least a couple of degrees warmer than the 1991-2020 average, followed by multiple media reports...

All models have been toying around with building heat for sometime now, similar to building in an arctic high midwinter.
My 'allotment indicator' portraying another poor summer so far with vegetables doing average at best. Let's keep chasing, it might happen at some point soon

What a disappointing day today, there was about 3-4 minutes of sunshine before 7 and that's it. Wonder when this dross will be over?
I bet skies will be clear for moon watching tonight.

As this is my regional thread, would like to share my thoughts on the model output discussion. There have been great analyses and very informative posts. However, I felt this year it wasn't at par by any means, it lacked that spark, probably people were too busy due to home working and kids being at home as well? I hope next winter we have all those posters back in, full gun blazing

In my experience, it's as difficult to get snow here in the heart of the Midlands as on a coast

Knowing that it will only be shower activity which will largely be hit and miss, I would rather prefer wall to wall sunshine to get on with my allotment

Moderate snow here now, long may it continue
-
First signs of pivoting, easterly wind has brought the snow back here in Coventry. It shall be an all day event!

Strange to see a 'dry' forecast for sunday, I thought there was snow predicted for the Midlands tomorrow? Has it been downgraded as usual

Coventry this year has an active snow shield in place. Either the precepitation fizzles out or it changes to rain. Anyhow the best strategy is to expect the least, if it delivers then the excitement is much higher

Which is why matching those with the nearest GFS or ECm is useful, the NOAA charts will give you an accurate idea of the mean pattern of troughing and ridging plus the mean upper flow. You can then extraploate surface detail off the nearest ops... This is a very successful method that ive been employing for some time now, and its certainly more stable and accurate for that timeframe then trying to decide which op has found a new trend.
Very true mushy, as usual with a great deal of care, but for those interested it is worth giving it a go. Not just now but in the hectic search for cold come the winter!
What sort of temperature would you expect in the coming days John? In the Westmidlands, we have hardly seen much sun over the past few days with subdued temperatures, we have seen consistnlty lower temperatures compared to the forecast. Not sure if we will get to 30C tomorrow. Would like to see some sun even if the temperature is low 20C

Looks like it will be cloudier than average and might just be average or a little below.
BBC's monthly outlook has flipped on its head, they now suggest that it will get cooler towards the end of June and beginning of July it will be cooler and wetter

Massive mild outlier.
Many times we have seen that the milder outlier wins out. So, apart from cold deluge, nothing else should be expected. Not great for the virus point of view either.

Probably these have been the strongest gusts of wind here in Coventry during all this sh** season. Popped in hear to check if this was a named storm, but no mention of it? Has this just come about out of nowhere?

Netweather.tv community forum transformed into Coronavirus.tv community forum. Probably Corono virus is more interesting than the current weather

Winter's paying a visit to Pakistan, really cold here especially at night. Winter wonderland but very difficult situation for the elderly....not much to burn to keep warm. No snow where I am but several feet fell about 30 miles north east.

Climate change equates to more winter rainfall, snow could be something of the past. After last year's disappointment I don't have any expectations from this winter either.

5.7c and 71.4mm rainfall, westerly to north-westerly winds to dominate.

GFS firing up a better Northerly at 150-
Welcome back Mr.Murr!!!
This can't give more than cold rain at the lower levels. No way near last year's BFTE.
