@lassie23 Yep, and that has happened all too often when cold is forecast. Funny hiw it never seems to happen when the milder weather is being forecast though.

It's dry out there at least but I do wonder if we'll see any more cold this winter. The MetO backtracking on the February cold spell is certainly bad news for coldies.

I'll never understand why people join a weather enthusiast's forum and then whinge about people following the models in the other thread or about potential weather that is actually interesting and not the grey, miserable rubbish we have had for pretty much all of the winter (and much of the Autumn) so far. Enough of the guilt-tripping and saying how cold weather isn't good for people. People have preferences that are different. Deal with it. Not to mention, the same people will be whinging in summer when the models don't show the weather they desire or if anyone dare show any other preference to them. Its ridiculous.
I agree 100%. It's one thing when folk say "I prefer the hot weather and hate cold" but when people come in with an "I like hot weather and here's why you should too" that really gets my goat.

I don't care about it being cold or mild or whatnot, I just wish it would stay dry for a few days. Everything's sodden out there!

I'm seriously thinking of emigrating from this miserable, rain-soaked sh*thole of a country. Awful, seasonless weather, lousy quality of life, shabby towns and cities and bland countryside. Hope to get away within a decade or so.

Hopefully it expands and brings some stable and warm weather
Not everyone wants year round warmth.

The SSW predictions getting pushed back by any chance?
They're still talking about the chances of an SSD but I only skipped through the posts, too much hopecasting and I don't want to get my hopes up.

Atlantic dross for the foreseeable future, even the EC46 which was predicting an erosion of the Iberian heights by mid-January is now putting that back to the end of Jan so that glimmer of hope has been snatched away.
I may as well give up on seeing any more cold this winter. The writing's on the wall.

I'm pretty sure more records wil tumble in 2024, especially those relating to heat.

You've got to laugh at the Met Office write-up for the run into Christmas: "a mix of weather". :D. Sure, if wind and rain, rain amd wind, gales and drizzle is your idea of a "mix".

Even tbe charts are uninteresting. No deep lows, just flat, straight westerlies overtopping the high to our south.
Imagine if it stayed like this all winter... :/

The GFS 12z is now starting to roll out on Wetterzentrale. I wonder if there's any hope of a shift to cold at all?

Another joke of a winter well under way
This is probably the new normal, thanks to climate change.

I'd prefer that (Malaga's forecast, around 17-18 and sunny every day) than what we're getting here.
If we're not going to get proper winter (snow, frost) we may as well go abroad for some warm sunshine and proper daylight.
No thanks, we've got the entirety of summer as well as much of spring and autumn for that. I don't particulaely want spring in December, especially when we'll probably be getting that in February.

I give up with this country's winters. Like I predicted yesterday, this winter will be mild, wet dross with any cold limited to brief interludes. If it wasn't for the shorter daylight hours "winter" in much of the UK could easily pass for an extended autumn or early spring.

I'm calling it now: this winter will be primarily Atlantic-driven, with only very rare, brief colder interludes. Storms are likely with potential for damaging winds and flooding in many areas. This will be the trend even in the face of any model output that will, inevitably output cold and blocked weather (always within the 240+ hour timeframe).
Spring will effectively be underway by late February, with one last cold snap later on (Aptil, probably).
The Great British Weather, everybody!

Agree completely. I find that most of the BBC presenters are annoying in one form or another. Currently my worst 2 are Darren Bett, mild lover and Louise Lear who I believe gets dressed in the dark!
Yes, Darren Bett and his mild Atlantic air are the bain of winter for me. Hate that bloke.

Very seasonal out there today for December 1st - frost on the ground all day where the Sun hasn't got to it, clear, calm and now we have thick fog too.

I never really tend to track windstorms, but here seems an exception. I'm kind of excited to see what happens. Looks concerning for the channel islands. On windy.com (UKV mostly) seeing gusts up to 100 or 105mph.
I'm calling it now - Tomorrow the Met will release an amber warning for the south coast. They tend to hold fire on red warnings, so who knows what will happen then.
All depends on tomorrow's observstions, i guess!
I wonder if there's any risk of the midlands being affected by these winds. Certainly some (albeit a minority) of GFS members would be devastating more widely across England if they were to verify.

The Arpege 18z has adjusted the low southwards a little, compared to the 12z run.
It seems, to my uneducated eye at least there is now difference between European and American models, with the Euros taking it further south compared to their N American counterparts.

Pretty strong agreement across the models for milder than average there! Thankfully the signals for wetter than average seem to have dropped.
When is it not milder than average nowadays? Trying to get any colder than average weather is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Very mild again out there and the humidity is relentless. I must admit I'm looking forward to next week's weather which should bring a fresher feel and some dryness.

It's very humid out there at the moment, almost subtropical even. Even with the breeze it feels quite warm.

Record warmth in Spain in January is all well and good but let's hope that doesn't translate to record heat this summer. That could have severe consequences for Spain, and maybe for us if any heat were to move north.
