  1. Good to see that the new sunspot died a death before it got a chance to be counted.
  2. So if it belongs to SC25 it would mean that we are moving to the next cycle already? I guess that would be no good news if we want a deep minimum or am I getting this wrong?
  3. Hopefully we will get that in 2 days.
  4. Reaching 100 days in June should be realistic.
  5. Thanks Yarmy. You are the fountain of solar knowledge.
  6. This is a new low for the solar flux for this cycle.
  7. Some heavy showers in west Manchester about half an hour ago but dry in the eastern half.
  8. current spell 3 days 55 days so far in 2018 and solar flux 68 Does anybody remember how low was the solar flux in the last minimum? It appears very stable.
  9. Is it only the SSW though? I think the quiet sun and the east QBO may be playing their part. I wonder for how long we can hold on to the east QBO...
  10. We have already achieved 52 spotless days this year which is half of the total count of 2017! So we are doing very well but taking a break currently as a growing sunspot appeared in the eastern side of the sun that will keep us spot free for a few days.
  11. Indeed, a very nice trend from the 6z gfs which is also joined by the ICON 6z . Hopefully, this will continue with the afternoon models.
  12. The scorpion has the risk of stinging us with a lot of flooding as the two air masses meet over our country. Still good snow potential for Scotland though.
  13. Yes, a less cold ICON with the problematic low to the southwest. The gfs up to 165 hours is an improvement for the north and it has a nice Atlantic block but sadly the low gets anchored to the southwest so central and southern areas just get rain. The UKMO has the cold licking the east at 144 hours and like the gfs it has a nice Atlantic block but still with that horrible low to the southwest.
  14. Definitely not! Terrible summer for working and sleeping that was followed by a terribly mild winter.
  15. Stunning 12z gfs brings the cold from the northeast by Wednesday next week! The UKMO appears much slower.
  16. My airbnb hostess in Ariege said that she had a very heavy fall of wet snow in May some years ago. It was so heavy that trees collapsed! The cold March may give the impression of a long winter but overall it was a mild winter here. The 6z gfs certainly offers several opportunities for further spring snowfall.
  17. The Pyrenees ski resorts must be very pleased with the extension of the skiing season.
  18. The UKMO 144 hour chart is quite similar to the GFS so maybe some more support for the Easter northerly. https://www.meteociel.fr/modeles/ukmo2.php?nh=0&ech=144&carte=1021
  19. Yes, very interesting outlook! Still light snow falling here and the snow survived 80% in balcony :-)
