Model Output Discussion - Into Winter
SLEETY replied to MATTWOLVES 3's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
Remember people posting twitter posts about how cold its was going to get in December later on and 62/63 comparisons And what is the actial outcome, back to high pressure over Southern Europe controlling the weather over much of Europe with mild weather the main player like most winters the past 30 years.. What a surprise said no one ever!! -
Model Output Discussion - Into Winter
SLEETY replied to MATTWOLVES 3's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
After looking promising that the Siberian high might take control with much colder weather coming back,we are now miles away from any sort of cold spell with the Atlantic in control again. Bitter out in the NE of Europe though,as long as that remains then always a chance we can tap-in to it later on. But nothing of interest regarding cold weather for at least two weeks,so no point looking at the models until mid-month -

Going be ages before we see decent sypnotics again IMO Once the Atlantic wins it's normally game over for weeks for any cold spell. The talking about the coldest winter since 63 from some posters this week Stop the wind-ups. UK winters have been crud since 87 bar the very rare occasion -

Exactly seen it countless times the past 30 years once the Atlantic takes control it can be weeks before things change again. Heard it all before about background signals look good for bitter cold to hit uk later on,but 90% the time it never happens. Met got it spot on for once from last Wed about Atlantic winning out. -

Always does on the coast when the wind switches onshore, enjoyed the cold spell here, even ice on the beach, that doesn't happen often. Let's hope this isn't the end of the cold weather can't stand another winter of wind and rain and mild. -

Models are utterly clueless at moment, can't work out how the low pressure is going to interact with the building High pressure over Scandi, fl about 96 hours ahead -

Yes the odds are shortening that the final outcome is all roads lead to Siberia after the Atlantic fails to take control. Be about 24 hours before it happens until the Met or BBC come aboard though with their constsnt mild bias in their forecasts! -

00z runs always poor for some reason, hopefully the 12, runs show similar to yesterday's. Can't bare the thought of milder weather and relentless rain again -

SLEETY replied to Kirkcaldy Weather's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
Nightmare for forecasters later next week, blame the warm sea surrounding the UK otherwise it be snow for all , of course if uppers were below minus 10c no problem won't be long for that to happen if this pattern persists. -

Doesn't explain the fact why they nearly always go for the least cold option like yesterday even though it wasn't looking likely even then! -
Model Output Discussion - mid Autumn
SLEETY replied to Kirkcaldy Weather's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
Forecast wrong from yesterday from Met then. They backed yesterdays Ecm on their 10 day trend forecast, and the least cold option to happen next week. Always seem to go for the least cold option, even when it's look not likely. -
Model Output Discussion - mid Autumn
SLEETY replied to Kirkcaldy Weather's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
It's always the last model to come aboard regarding Easterlies, it didn't want to know at all yesterday so it's already moved towards an Easterly. Did this some years ago with the other models showing an Easterly but the UKMO had the high too far South until the last minute, it was miles out. Almost feel like the model has been programmed with a mild bias built into it, nearly always seems to show the less cold option until it catches up. -
Hasn't happened yet, too many people writing off the storm already. Happens all the time in here.

Decent snow-fall on the Cairngorms from the storm, which Met-Office failed to forecast, forecasting warm air moving in Saturday evening, which didn't happen, still below freezing at the summit. Another fail from the Met again

Poor performance from the models again, why do they struggle with these set-ups, the Easterly looks on track again this morning after all of them were against it,especially the UKMO, it's been miles our the last few days regarding the Easterly -
Ah stop with the dramatics, parts of Scandenavia be getting snow end of the week and Iceland, oh no might be another ice-age coming

Really hope the c e t comes in below average, just to shut the METO up for once, constantly going on and on about global-warming, as if we don't know!! -

SLEETY replied to Cambrian's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
This relentless wind from the NE, for days and days, and now Ecm wants to retrogress the high further up towards Greenland and bring in a notable cold spell of weather later on. Amazing how in winter we barely get any days of winds from the E or NE now it's almost relentless, so unusual here on South Coast to have winds constantly off-shore from the NE. -
