The ECM refuses to show a proper Scandi high and has a strong low pressure system to the North of Scandinavia. This is something that the 12z gfs has also shown. In fact the 12z gfs,despite showing a brilliantly cold and wintry spell, has also downgratedthe strength of the Scandi high as did the 12z UKMO. Yesterday weve seen most models incrase heights to our northeast but today the trend has been reversed. Karyo
