  1. Just for fun Here’s a festive take on some of the posts in the MOD thread this month. To the tune of John Lennon’s So this is Christmas. So this is Christmas and we’re hunting for cold The models are saying we going to hit gold! Second week of December and our nerves are all frayed the models are showing the cold is delayed. By the third week of December it’s all down the drain the models confirming we’re getting mild, wind, and rain. So now it is Christmas and yes you have guessed the cold’s coming in Jan now so please don’t get depressed……….. Happy Christmas!
  2. Going into the Model Output Discussion reminds me of when my son has his mates round to play on the PlayStation! The scenario is something like this: A couple of his mates come round to play Model Output Discussion, GFS, ECM and UKMO they bring along little 6z. All is going well. They all like the way 6z has started the mission and are all on board and there is a lot of good humoured banter. Then a little while later there is a knock on the door and another z brother turns up, 12. 12 goes into the room and after a few minutes there is a lot of shouting and yelling and a few ominous crashes. You go into the room. Your son shouts that 12 has taken over and completely ruined the mission. GFS and ECM think it’s a good mission, UKMO is sitting on the edge of the bed texting, 6z has fallen asleep as everyone has forgotten about him. GFS remembers you’re good friends with his mum, and doesn’t want to get into trouble so he says that actually he thinks 12’s way of doing the mission is rubbish. ECM accuses him of ‘flip flopping’ as usual, your son tells GFS he can’t be trusted. Your son asks UKMO who he’s texting, he says he’s just asking if Bartlett High wants to come over to join the game. Your son goes mad! He hates Bartlett, he always ruins everything! He would rather have Bart’s sister Scandi round. UKMO says she can be big and bossy sometimes and blocks everything he wants to do. Your son says UKMO shouldn’t be so bias to mild which ruins everything and just let Scandi do the mission her way. You leave the room, there’s a knock at the front door, you can’t take much more! 18z has turned up with his mate Slider Low. There’s a lot of interest about what Slider is going to do later. He’s not sure. Meanwhile 18z has taken over the mission everyone loves how he’s started, the evolution of this looks great! Happy banter resumes!
  3. Seeing the chart was a great help, thanks everyone.
  4. Thanks for your reply. Apparently the ship I was on sailed through a force 11 gale in the Med about a month or so ago, one of the crew said it was quite common to have rough seas. They don't tell you any of this in the broucher!!
  5. Hi, Just got back from a cruise round the Med. On Saturday 24th we were meant to dock at Olbia, Sardinia but were advised the night before that the sea would be very rough that night and we wouldn't be able to call there, so we went to Ajaccio instead. The sea was very rough but there were no clouds and the moon was out, the pressure was high so the ships service desk said. We then hit a force 8 gale on Sunday night! still with clear skies and high pressure. could someone explain to me about storms and high pressure I only thought they came with low pressure.Thanks
