    Until the low next weekend is resolved what happens into the following week will change run-run, it might turn mild but most likely models are being too progressive to remove the cold, many ensemble members do keep the cold going, there’s too much scatter at the moment to discern the true signal.

    Overall coldies should be happy, turning much colder with increasing snowfall risks just about anywhere as small disturbances/troughs develop within a very unstable airmass. 

    As I have compared the frames over the last 24 hours, the crazy low has been slowed down by a couple days and has a weaker approach.

    I have to say the output looks very good at face value and synoptically stunning, but latest BBC Weather For The Week doesn’t particularly show any kind of wintry nirvana in the next 7 days. Even next Friday temps are well into single figures across most of the UK. 

    I want widespread snow as much as the next person but looks like anything like this is still a week/10 days away at least.

    For widespread snow you want a very cold easterly or NE flow.

    Depends, easterlies are more of a high risk, but higher reward game. I would rather an easterly over a northerly, as they tend to be less marginal due to generally lower dew points. Plus the uppers from the East tend to be less modified if they are in place. You would rarely see sub -15’s make it from the North. 

    Want east/NErly as Northerlies are the same story everytime usually.

    Just because something is an outlier, it does not mean it's wrong so no... It should not be binned. 

    There is an element of risk of getting the northerly in quicker however it could be high reward but only if the cold air gets far enough south and has enough depth to it! The ECM 00Z op seems fairly simple, it pulls the set up too far north and west, still a very good run mind but because of that it does open the door to milder air in the south, high reward potentially if your in the right spot but dissapointment for others. 

    Pleasing UKMO after yesterday's run but today's GFS is a dissapointment and I still have that feeling there's a chance the northey could end up being too weak to bring significant cold. GFS run has a feel your rewards will come if your patient enough but it never will. 

    Getting not too far off the stage where even the details to an extent will be nailed on, I think the northerly is nailed but how cold will it be and what happens after if the trough does end up over the UK. 

    GFS is fantastic lol, nice slack easterly across the UK and it only strengthens later on. Lots of snow showers for the E. Northerly is good but snow risk reduced.

    don't you start again 😁.... Perth is fine when it comes from the East.... this winter we will compete with your Narnia 

    Been a good while since I’ve been in this group. In Aberdeen studying at the moment but back home in Perth tomorrow. Perth needs a E flow , can get away with NE flow but kinda a waste if its all northerly. Think a bit of snow would reach but there be no shovelling knee deep in snow. Fun and anxious times ahead for snow lovers

    I'm not going to go into anything too technical, as to be frank I'm very much a noob compared to many knowledgeable posters on here.

    And I know ensembles don't tell the whole story, but just looking at these ensembles from the 00z GFS. You'd have bitten your hand off for these at the start of any UK winter. Let alone the SE, so the north will be even better!
