A fresh model thread as we enter into a new phase, with the cold spell drawing to a close, and a milder, wetter and potentially quite wild spell incoming in the nearer term.
You may have noticed that the model discussions now have their own area (a bit of a throwback to how things used to be laid out several years back), this is to allow more expansion of the discussion around the topic of the models. For instance, we have a new model emotions thread now up and running and will be introducing other threads which will hopefully be interesting to follow and take part in over time.
We also have an updated set of community guidelines, which I'd encourage everyone to read, just so you're aware of what's expected when taking part in this or other threads. On top of that, we also have a separate set of guidelines specifically for the model output threads to hopefully clarify what constitutes model discussion, along with other info about these discussions. As it's the first time we've had these in place, I'll copy them in here so as many as possible have a chance to see them:
-------------------------------------
A typical, on-topic post into the model thread is likely to contain the following:
- Discussing, interpreting and commenting on data from weather models.
- Comparing predictions from different weather models.
- Making specific weather predictions based on model outputs.
- Delving into technical aspects of weather modelling.
- Analysing specific weather patterns shown in model forecasts.
- Speculating on future weather trends based on model data.
- Providing educational insights or explanations about how weather models work and how to read them.
Posts which may not fit into the model thread and, therefore need to be posted elsewhere may do one of the following:
- Making purely emotional reactions to the model output with no context (Eg - The GFS is crap, The ECM is amazing and so on)
- Talking about TV, web or app-based forecasts and warnings with no current model-related context.
- Talking about past weather experiences with no current model related context.
- Over the top and unrealistic hyping up of model output.
- Solely moaning about the model output or weather conditions.
- Complaining about what other members have posted into the model thread.
- Complaining about moderation within the model thread.
Model threads health warning
The model discussions are open to all and are filled with discussions on the model output from weather enthusiasts. Some will have more knowledge than others, some may get overly excited about the prospect of particular weather types which can lead to exaggerated interpretations and predictions. Some may even post things which aren’t an accurate representation of the models they’re describing. This is the nature of a discussion forum, with differing levels of expertise, along with varying opinions, insights and emotive responses.
The discussions also often look at future trends in various weather forecasting models, which, by their nature, can change dramatically from run to run. When someone posts their view, it is very likely to be a discussion around recent data from the models and is subject to change - eg they aren’t necessarily making a forecast.
If you’re looking for a more concise version of the model discussion, the model highlights thread is available. If you’re looking for a specific weather forecast and not looking to read a discussion, there are many sources of those across the web, including right here on Netweather.
--------------------------------------
The model highlights thread is running and is entirely crowdsourced, so if you see a post you think is insightful and informative, that should be in there, please use the 'insightful' reaction on it:
For access to the various model outputs, many of them are right here on netweather:

A new thread to moan about the weather this Spring and Summer..
-
A fresh thread, ready for the final third of meteorological winter. The outlook doesn't look especially encouraging if cold, snowy weather is your thing, but with our resident high now a bit further away, there is now a more mobile set up.
Please remember that all posts contain should discussion around the model output in this thread. The winter chat thread is already active, so is the ideal place for non-model related stuff, including ramps and moans:
The guiding principles of everyone's participation in this thread are:
Be kind -- Stay on topic -- Share your knowledge -- Be polite -- Be honest -- Be tolerant -- Be family friendlyPlease report posts you think break these guidelines, and don't respond to them. If there's someone's posts you'd rather not see, you can have the forum block them for you, using the ignore function.
Thank you and happy cold hunting!

A fresh thread and a slight change in the plan for it, so please have a read below.
We need to tip the scales more towards model discussion in this thread, so while it'll stay as a hunt for cold thread (the non-cold slanted alternative thread is still available), we do ask that all posts contain discussion around the model output. The winter chat thread is already active, so is the ideal place for non-model related stuff, including ramps and moans:
The guiding principles of everyone's participation in this thread are:
Be kind -- Stay on topic -- Share your knowledge -- Be polite -- Be honest -- Be tolerant -- Be family friendlyPlease report posts you think break these guidelines, and don't respond to them.

A fresh thread as we all start to head back to real life after the Christmas and New Year break.
This is still a 'hunt for cold' thread, which means some extra chat is ok but the basis of it still needs to be model related discussion. Please also bear in mind that 'extra chat' isn't a metaphor for 'act like an idiot' - so for the minority of people that are acting in that way, please stop before you find you can't post on here.
The guiding principles of everyone's participation in this thread are:
Be kind -- Stay on topic -- Share your knowledge -- Be polite -- Be honest -- Be tolerant -- Be family friendlyPlease report posts you think break these guidelines, and don't respond to them.
If you want to go for full on moans, ramps and winter based chat with little to no model discussion, please continue to use the the winter chat thread:
https://www.netweather.tv/forum/topic/96442-winter-2021-22-moans-and-ramps-thread/?do=getNewCommentIf you want a slightly slower pace of discussion, or don't specifically want to be involved in the hunt for cold, please head over to the slower paced model discussion:
https://www.netweather.tv/forum/topic/96449-short-range-model-discussion-december-2021-onwards/?do=getNewComment
(This thread was the short range model discussion).You're welcome to cross-post into each of model threads, if you have a post which you think would work well for both.
Thank you, and happy cold hunting!

Model Output Discussion - Spring Has Sprung
in Forecast Model Discussion
Posted · Edited by BlueHedgehog074
A fresh thread, and hopefully a fresh start after things went a bit off on a tangent in the previous thread.
No big sermon here, but we really do need to make every effort to stay within the forum and model thread guidelines (below) in here. And within that, please, please, please don't respond to comments which are clearly outside of those guidelines. Please just report them and move on so as not to give any iffy, inflammatory comments the oxygen that they do not deserve.
The community guidelines, have recently been updated - so please have a read of them if you haven't yet. We also have a separate set of guidelines specifically for the model output threads to hopefully clarify what constitutes model discussion, along with other info about these discussions.
