Rascals Revenge

To be fair,they got 2009 2010 2013 2018 spells well in advance. But they should now really give into defeat. Its now a running joke.

Looks like towel whipping hasn't worked on the met computers!

Wheres the Beef?

We are just about to endure the classic mild spell before an easterly. The goods are coming.

Last year's 2nd bfteast appeared at very short notice. Im expecting the same before the end of feb.

UK Outlook for Sunday 17 Feb 2019 to Sunday 3 Mar 2019: Very low confidence emerges through the rest of February as to whether a more blocked pattern redevelops or we maintain more of an Atlantic influence, with a more widely unsettled theme continuing through second half of the month. At this stage, it looks as though Atlantic low pressure systems will track further to the south, with high pressure situated to the north. This set up would bring slightly wetter conditions across the south of the UK, with some strong winds at times. Meanwhile, drier than average conditions are likely in the north, although with some coastal showers possible. There is the possibility that frontal systems may bring wintry hazards, particularly if a more east or northeasterly flow develops. Temperatures overall around the average. Low likelihood of widely cold conditions developing. Think the fat lady is clearing her throat!!!!

Mild ramper

It is Groundhog day today. I wonder what Punxsutawney Phil will say later.

Updated again UK Outlook for Saturday 16 Feb 2019 to Saturday 2 Mar 2019: The most likely scenario is for the weather to get colder again from mid to late February, however confidence is low. The most common weather in this period is likely to be cold days with occasional wintry showers, and frosty nights. However, some rain and unsettled weather remain a possibility, especially in the northwest. There will also be milder spells though, most likely in the south. Towards late February a longer cold spell looks possible, perhaps due to winds from the east, however it is too early to say for sure, and there is also a chance that milder and wetter weather will arrive from the Atlantic.
