Winter 2021-22 Chat, Moans and ramps thread
Updated_Weather replied to damianslaw's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
I don’t know about anyone else but having high pressure over us which produces cold/cool frosty nights and low temps with sun is the second best thing in winter.. I’m happy if I can’t get snow. Snow is the only reason I like winter other than that I hate the cold. -

I guess people can’t remember times when the outlook changed to a more colder outlook at short notice. I mean chasing 10+ day charts are always pointless. Always about the pattern and where we can go from there.. but writing off Jan already is completely bonkers. day at a time. -
Interesting tweet by Matt Hugo ”Interesting to note a more sig region of -ve E'ly AAM anoms now propagating towards higher lats (top image, far right, green area) - this an indication of the progression towards more anticyclonic weather looking ahead. Position of the high still crucial but I think GFS has this”

Yep it’s a long shot but surprises happen.. and I’m not just hoping because I’m in with a chance but, nothing to get excited about imo -

Maybe some interest or maybe some hope but those who haven’t seen some snow yet.. *MAY* get a chance as the low clears south, as harmonie suggests some may see some wintriness. but my bet is it’ll be either rain or at best sleet. no covering expected. -

Yeah we have been in a favourable conditions before Xmas regarding MJO etc.. look what happened. Had no effect on us at all. just my opinion.. we will see how it plays out. -

Pretty easy to suggest that January won’t see anything noteworthy imo.. because the background drivers don’t support it.. Jan SSW unlikely.. and you’ve got other factors that just don’t support us being in a good position for Cold/snow - not saying we won’t see some snow through Jan, but doubt it’ll be very noteworthy. Feb/March probably a better chance but that’s usually the case with UK winters. -

Mate.. it’s over. this “event” was never likely in any situation tbh. GFS being typical and being it’s usual self.. people need to learn and not take every run like the 6z as gospel. It’ll only lead to disappointment. follow UKMO and ECM imo.. can’t see any snow event or anything noteworthy through the rest of jan. -

Unlikely. fax charts which are far more reliable.. suggest otherwise. low further south.. barely anything notable. -

Fax chart for Tuesday.. low further south.. barely any snow. Maybe some wintriness instead of accumulations as the low clears south. imo gfs has this wrong. -

Apps will never be interested until literally a few hours - day max! Although Met O and BBC both show sleet for me in Essex.. Never take it seriously.
