Model Output Discussion - Into Winter
lottiekent replied to MATTWOLVES 3's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
I don’t understand why everyone is commenting on charts 10-14 days out like they’re gospel? When would you normally look 10-14 days in the future and say what you’re seeing is going to happen? I’m not saying the non-snowy/cold evolution won’t happen, just that surely we are way off the timeframe in which anyone can be confident. Will keep watching this thread and the output with interest! -

I saw both lanes of the M20 were shut because of accidents between Folkestone and Lympne just after the freezing rain fell, hopefully no one was injured. -

What is this representative of please? -
I love the weather, have been a member on this forum since the demise of the BBC weather forum (with its infamous SCOD poster and 11pm closing time) so for more years than I care to remember. But I still have a lot to learn - I *think* what Matt is saying here is that the trend is towards a blocked signal with a colder theme for end of month? Rather than making an idiot of myself in the mod thread from where this was quoted, I’m hoping one of my more learned SE members can help please?

Current obs on my station and its falling as freezing rain, can hear it on the house and path outside. Can’t see a lot as only one small old fashioned streetlight a few meters away but the leaves left on the tree in the front garden are falling off readily as the accumulating ice weighs them down! Kind of wish it was light to see it happen but equally relieved it’s dead of night as it’ll be lethal at the moment.

Scared to post anything at the moment in case it jinxes the whole situation. Also limiting myself to short bursts of model thread as it’s a bit too like a seesaw in there for my liking

Another unexpectedly rainy day, from the MO saying yesterday it’s be dry we ended up with 21.59mm! Locally quite a bit of surface water now whenever it rains. Came across a section of road I’d never seen flooded before but a small stream runs under the road there so I wonder if the drains are just oversaturated now.

44.5mm of rain here today and chucking it down again.
