ICE COLD

The block is just sitting there not budging. What a run .

The high is being reinforced

Wow . What’s the lowest thickness the uk has ever had . Because that’s nuts .

Really ?? ECM , GFS and GEM around day 8

T192 looks ok. 100% better than this morning . Welcome back ECM

I’ll join you Ali

The GEM has us below freezing by day and well below freezing at night from T192 to T240 . Come on ECM follow the Gem

UKMO 168 BOOM

Two words EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING . I think why do I bother chasing winter year in year out wasting my time and energy ( I need a new hobby) . Even when all the telecommunications point the right way . All models 3 days ago , that’s op runs , means , ens and most importantly the meto . But still it all falls off a cliff . It’s extremely frustrating. It’s been the longest chase ever from the start December and let’s be real it’s another fail . Up north could still do ok . The ECM mean another downgrade . The GEM is what we should all prey for (but that is a huge ask now ) .

It went a bit dodgy but it looks better now . T192

Yer looking at the ukv temps very cold across the board and snow showers breaking out .

Yer is more in line with the ukv above . -11 and -12s

Yer it’s crazy really at such a short time scale . -11 widely on the ukv and -12 in the far south east .

Pretty sure it’s run off the back of it ?? Maybe I’m wrong

It would do mate because it was run from the 00z op run which was terrible . If the tomorrow mornings op run is better then it’ll be better tomorrow evening. Seems a silly idea really . But what do I know

ECM is better than this morning , I’ll take that as a positive but it’s not a UKMO, GEM , GFS or ICON . Really preying it’s wrong .

Big big big 168 coming

Well let’s hope we have a memorable cold spell like the gfs and then totally take down the pv ready for feb

-13s in Scotland and -10s clearing the south coast . Come on

Heights gaining around Greenland again at day 10

Lovely run again from the gfs

Come on GFS T192

No problem with the colder uppers on the gfs 6z early doors

I’ve got that feeling the ECM is wrong 168 to 192 . Every other run is brilliant this morning . Probably make me look an idiot later .

Yer but don’t forget before this it is surface cold and frosty so could be a decent spell with below average temps before the real cold kicks in
