1962/63 is the only year in living memory that had oscillating Northern Heights between Greenland/Iceland/Scandinavia. It is possible for a pattern to set up that self sustains itself but it’s the only year that’s done that for a reason!
Many similarities with the Canadian warming, El Niño/ East QBO combination!
im not saying this is happening now btw that is IMPOSSIBLE to predict but id love to see it happen just from a learning perspective to see how a year like that would set up!
There are three sliding channel lows in 3 days. If (and at this range it is highly improbable) but if something like that came off. …… a great example of a COBRA run

""Slider alert"
and then some...
Sublime synoptics this year, although until its +72 max, I would discount any snow depth or snow charts. Although, going on the above and getting in a completely nimby comment - S Wales gets an absolute pummelling next weekend!
But it’s just a chart, a great deal can change in a week. I have lost count of the number of crushing disappointments for coldies on here. It’s probably the norm, so to see such consistent almost universal key signals from all models then we could be in for a memorable one - an exception so enjoy watching it unfold, and if it goes pear shaped, then also marvel at the superiority of mother nature. We like to think we know what goes on, but really we haven’t got much of a clue.
Either way a big one is long overdue 2010 and then, very briefly, early March 2023 are all I can say we really had on the S Wales coast and so far in terms of model outputs it starting to look magic!

2/3 say as cold or colder than now by boxing day. Tightening of lines as @tight isobar might say already evident. Expect consensus to start to trend sharply down after D7.

GFS Op has been first onto the trend this year. And it takes a bold nosedive after the weekend. They will all fall in behind their master in the coming days.

7 days of cold to go, even with the gfs. I have no idea about any of this but ensembles give a more rounded set of possibilities imo and only look to where there is consensus at 5 days max. Otherwise if anything else was possible, we’d have accurate long term forecasts and we don’t!

Nothing is nailed after Monday, could go either way depending on the track of the low.
The cold weather alert is only till Monday and some are commenting on things getting milder from Monday ?
Also the BBC are showing milder temperatures next week.
They just forecast it getting even colder next week on R4

Your Lordship I would duck if I were you,cause there's gonna be alot of flying debris coming your way after a statement like that! Euro High should be a banned phrase in here just like the Bartlett.
Amazing output lads and lasses...cold pretty much locked in on some output with that big risk of snow on ecm which is a route I've been thinking possible for a few days! We need that moisture to hit the cold air for huge snowfall amounts...we need it to grind to a halt just like the good old days in the 80s.
1pm news...heavy snow causing chaos in the SW...
6pm news..that snow as now reached the Midlands and will be dumping many inches.
Next day news..The snow as now reached the North and they're being pummeled...but guess what it's now about to be pushed south again and we Start the process all over again! I maybe still dreaming but this scenario remains on the table.
This Xmas run up could be special.. keep the faith.
I think it’s important to realise that many people will come to grave harm this winter. These synoptics spell black outs amid an energy and cost of living crisis. My heart goes out to out most vulnerable over the next few weeks.

No, there has been consistent output now forecasting a week/10 day long snap.
Look at the ensembles. Absolute consensus. Anything after that timeframe is always spaghetti whatever the model…….. enjoy the next week or so if cold is your thing. It is entirely conceivable that it becomes entrenched.

Very poor (for cold) ECM days 8 and 9
Day 9. -NAO becoming west-based
As far as the European mainland is concerned, it shows something similar to the UKMO at 168 except we get an extra day's grace on ECM
Having said that there are no certainties that this is right. Just feel that things might be trending away from longer term cold. It could trend back of course
One run doth not a trend make.

How it starts and how it ends (at D10 anyway).
it was like this 2 years ago if you remember. Ridiculously synoptics but always at or beyond D10 and the breakdown in here when it all ended was spectacular.
yes it could easily go pear shaped but this one feels unflinching.
Just be aware though that for everyone clapping their hands in glee, there will be many millions for whom this will not mean good news. Dazzling output, terrifying consequences at the moment for many.

Well, whatever you get enjoy the weather, for me it’s another one written off.
See you all for the chase again next year!

Big, massive, huge ECM coming up…Probably the most important of our lifetime…at least until the 00z …
im with you. The only thing model out puts do is speculation. How many D10 scenarios have ever verified. We’ll know where we are by Weds….

Well I've been around since all this internet weather malarkey started, I watch the forums every autumn onwards and the same reoccurring scenario of the models changing their out put right at the end repeats itself, and people in my view are right in getting angry and annoyed.
However the real culprit is the very models themselves and the data fed into them. Some people act as if the models create the weather with remarks like "the gfs is back on board again " . No for me the heart of the problem is the models ; they are just not up to it . I myself despite what I'm saying here, was by yesterday sucked into the a xmas day start of a cold spell and no way could all the main models be in such agreement and then all move to a less favourable scenario overnight with only six days to go There is still time to go but we all know how this usually ends, So for me the models in situations like this have very little value beyond two to three days. Remember before the internet and computer modelling? We got about a three day warning from UKMO via BBC television - none of this being totally absorbed and a slave to the model outputs for several weeks at a time.Best post on here all winter.

Stunning synoptics. Quite stunning, but then again…: aren’t they always? The reason this forum works is the thrill of the chase.: last year promised so much and delivered so little. As did the year before….. we really do need to bear in mind that anything beyond T120 is really fantasy island.
great trending signals tho’

Crazy member wants -20 850’s so much scatter. I think we can safely say even at the short range we are probably in one of the most unpredictable winters for some time
