    Steady snow here in Cheltenham. Real nice surprise. What I don’t understand is why it was never forecast. Off to Cleeve Hill soon, where there’s sure to be more.

    Often make the mistake of reading the MOD without looking at the charts. Just looked at the charts which look perfectly ok to me for below average temps and by next weekend signs of a troughs making in roads. Nothing wrong with that. There’s a lot of cold air around so lots to look forward too. There’s some longevity to this.

    Yes. If you following these storms during the hurricane season in the Caribbean, it is always the High Pressure ridges which direct the storms. The strength of the -NAO is steering this one South.
  4. Cleeve Hill
    Looks like it’s just going to sit out in the Atlantic and spin around. No jet stream and the steering pattern should be the High. It’s going to be an interesting watch.

    Well, here it is. Wasn’t there yesterday. Going to be fascinating how a tropical system interacts with this artic air. Never seen anything like this. It’ll be worth watching.
  6. Cleeve Hill
    Yes. There’s nothing on the National Hurricane Centre website showing this tropical development in the Atlantic. Even though it’s now outside Hurricane season they would include this in their graphics. Hmm

    Most of us should know by now, ECM rarely verifies beyond 168hours. Pretty much ignore anything after that particularly in the current unusual Synoptics.

    Lovely. Remember watching my Bristol City away to West Brom one Boxing Day years ago. Snow on the pitch, cleared the lines with a spade and an orange ball. Those were the days

    Thought I check it out and yep, winters coming

    You can tell, times are a changing. Years ago most leaves were down by bonfire night and I can remember we used leaves to stuff the guy Fawkes. There’s no change to daylight hours so the delay in leaf fall has to be temperature. This year I would say most trees still have 50% of their leaves. So a late start to winter seems to be the norm in 21st century.

    Anybody know what happened re todays forecast for Cheltenham? last night forecast was mainly dry. Clerk of the course decides to water and then from 10.00 am it started to rain and it’s still raining. v strange forecast
  12. Cleeve Hill
    Wonder whether this has anything to do with the storm coming on shore and no Atlantic to fuel it, similar to tropical storms.

    Lived in Antigua for 3 years. Shorts, T Shirts and flip flops and Air Conditioned office. Whats not to like about that ? Warm evenings and tropical breeze. I'll take that any day.
  14. Cleeve Hill
    ECM From 144 onwards, a much more seasonal look to things. A welcome change.

    It’s 2c, grey and feels like it’s going to snow !
  16. Cleeve Hill
    Yes, definitely has a feel of winter’s past.
  17. Cleeve Hill
    Still -2 outside and frosty. We’ve had this most of the week. Proper winter weather and the outlook shows more of the same. Should be interesting mid winter model watching. Bring it on.
  18. Cleeve Hill
    Yes. Sea ice around Svalbard is 10% up on the 1990-2020 long term average. Haven’t seen that for a long time.
  19. Cleeve Hill
    For everyone having a bit of a meltdown please remember these charts change every 6 hours and we are still over a week away from Christmas. Charts rarely verify 168 - 192 hours away. Plus, take a look at the METO update this afternoon.
  20. Cleeve Hill
    Yes, I see it’s just updated and a big upgrade from yesterday, incl ref to wintriness during Jan. Lovely jubbly

    Is all that cold air in Scandi helping to promote a Scandi block ?
  23. Cleeve Hill
    Haven’t seen a proper Scandi High for years. When would have been the last time I wonder? Scandi highs and undercutting lows are a winter dream. I recall in the early 80’s plenty of these in Bristol/Glos area and lots of snow days.
  24. Cleeve Hill
    Have people noticed that the temperatures around Bering Straits, Northen Scandinavia are significantly lower this year compared to recent years. -25 in lapland, Finland and a cold week ahead. Norway Sea Ice quoted today that the Svalbard sea ice 319,267Sq km, approx 10% greater than the 1991-2020 average. There is some deep cold developing up there compared to recent years which could have an impact of our weather when the synoptics fall into place which they appear to be doing.

    Surprised really, as we move into a LaNina. This usually means a lot of activity. The season runs until 30th Nov and expect there to be a couple more named storms.
