I believe that the next update is due tomorrow? But I'm not really looking-forward to it!

Model Moans, Ramps and Banter

Well, not for the first time, I am at a complete and utter loss as to how the Met has reached that conclusion...Any ideas? -
An interesting though frustrating run, I think?? From a purely meteorological perspective, it's almost as if the entire NH has reached an impasse, from which it might never escape; from the other angle - of one who enjoys looking out the window - a set of blackout curtains might be a wise investment? On a more positive note, however - both Sydney's assets and lassie's gerbil will be sighing with relief... Oh, and lest we forget: the muppets at the dear old Daily Express have gone and done it again! Roll on the 12Z!

Indeed. And there's nothing better at tweaking one's in-built scepticism than enduring the wit and wisdom of a Monckton or a Delingpole?

Ah, that one: a worst-case scenario, put forward as just that, and nothing more; but, now used as a straw-man hypothesis by deniers?

And, as if to prove your point, Dev - I don't even know what CAGW is!

False attribution seems very popular in our new post-truth society, doesn't it Malcolm? TBH, I'd far rather accept the conclusions of the IPPC & Co than play 'he said, she said' with self-styled 'sceptics'!

Model Moans, Ramps and Banter
Methuselah replied to Polar Maritime's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
The sun was far from spotless in 1947? I think some folks were even attributing February's monster snowfalls to the high number of sunspots? So you'll forgive if I remain unconvinced, John? -
Can't say that I'm entirely convinced by that run; in particular regarding the uppers (entrained within the circulation of the Orthodox Xmas Day LP) of around -5C: not only have most other runs indicated uppers of a couple of degrees lower, at least, but I cannot abide rain & sleet. Like the end though - that'll do nicely!

Phew! For a wee second there, I thought that maybe the MetO had gone and 'tweaked' the weather? -
January 2017 C.E.T. forecasts
Methuselah replied to Roger J Smith's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
2.2C for me, please... -
Okay then... Unless something almost meteorologically 'impossible' happens between now and Sunday, a 2/3-day-long and reasonably potent Northerly looks odd-on: if it isn't then we might as well all give up now? Around January 6-7, what could be a prolonged spell of colder weather looks increasingly likely. But likely does not mean certain (we are after all all in the UK!) so it 'could' always still go the way-of-the-pear - so prepare for the worst and hope for the best ought to be good advice? My personal preference? As snowy as but not nearly as cold as what the 06Z was suggesting...Are daytime maxima of -10C really what folks want to see? Wouldn't -2C do?

Aye Dev...But when 'normal (whatever the fook that means) human activities' decimate wildlife it's merely a 'that's life' situation. It's only 'green things' that get the natives restless!
