    WOW, that’s crazy cold right there -10/-15c nights at least for the usual cold spots

    Beautiful chart and should lock in with the Omega style block forming between Greenland and Iceland, that Low over the Azores could move east and prevent the heights escaping over us and bring a special snow event to southern u.k.

    ukmo is a thing of beauty and would go on to produce a pretty potent northerly later on. As for longevity I have a feeling that the high would collapse down towards us but if this coincides with the Jet moving back north we could have residual heights left far enough north to force the renewed push of Atlantic energy under and give us a few battleground snow scenarios before the renewed signal of background drivers helping northern blocking re-establish towards months end and beyond. Ecm is a concern but you’d still feel there would be enough residual heights left over the nw to force systems under.

    ECM looks fine to me if you like a higher risk of snow with colder air sinking South against Atlantic Air pushing from the South.

    Better than the GFS dry UK high offering for sure.

    Exactly my thoughts, if we can get the low in the Azores and cold trough dropping down from the north to meet somewhere would get a decent snow event and I’m all about the risk reward, the uppers don’t need to be -10 for that -2 or below would suffice in this set up with frontal Snow, then watch the temps drop afterwards.

    two groupings after the 2nd shot of colder uppers, green following the op and control and blue following a large pack staying colder.

     

    Crucially I feel but not hanging my hat on it the mean stays below -5 and the colder run group has 5 members below -10 I think yesterday we had 2 breaching -10 small wins and all to play for.

    this is what the depth of cold and lowering heights over Greenland lead to, not sure how that low to the north west will act, could head south east or bring back the Atlantic 

     

    one run but a slight wobble of the wheel.

    ensembles and 0z will offer more information 

    Seems to rapidly intensify as it drops down from Greenland hopefully it’s forced to drop through us as behind it there is a ton of cold lurking far out in FI now though so will probably be gone by the next run anyway seems a bit rogue to me.

    Will that lobe of low pressure over Scandinavia move/be forced south?...a lot of the 'real' cold is still to the north or is the patter still evolving as this is the 14th...

    I think the 850’s on the day 10 ecm will be colder nearer the time I’ve never been a fan of the later 850 output from the model tbh but if the Synoptics run like this in 10 days they would be colder.

    Easterlies rarely get me excited being on the Western side of Bannau Brycheiniog but to see such dry weather on the horizon is great! We've also managed a frost this morning although the forecasted temp is 5 degrees, just shows that the forecast can often be wrong as well.

    I hope we pull a Nwstly in at the end of next week to awaken the Dangler!! 

    Don’t worry I’ll be awake 🤣

    81/82 was a six/seven week long frigid period 

    62/63 lasted months 

    I guess you said ‘could’ 

    yes it could 

    but the chances are very very heavily that it won’t - maybe 5%. 

     

    Yep they were once in 100 year events for sure but who knows could we be due another one? Another warming event has come up on a few runs today towards months end which would likely disrupt the pv some more and shove February into the freezer too.

    LP to the SW a problem or will the cold get in first and create the perfect channel low ?

    Think it could be the the perfect snow storm as the cold arrives from the north and the low meet somewhere would get buried historically the south west.

    I like the ECM. Someone had to say it. 

     

    I wish there was an archived forum to relive those days. 

    I remember the lead upto it on here and it counted down perfectly for about 2 weeks out, all the model power we have now should be better at handling this spell better than back then you’d think but there were the doubters back then too will it be to west based etc etc but much like this coming spell all the ensembles are pointing towards a Greenland block and that’s where we are heading imho

    So far apart its ridiculous and precisely why every run should not be taken as gospel for newbies

    Yes exactly why we should just stick with the Means and anomalies that far ahead as you would go crazy if you followed every run and treat as gospel. Zonal winds are falling and MJO is projected into favourable territory so stick with these I would and don’t look past 7 days ahead. The NWP have a lot to work out and as @nick sussex mentioned there will be wedges and all sorts popping up all over the polar regions. The models just don’t know where yet.
