Well i for one am looking forward to the mild weather next week, beats this cold rain we have had just lately, lets hope the milder/warmer weather can give us hope that an early spring is just around the corner. -

so for anyone that looks at the forecast for a need to work or go out etc and they look at the bbc website or the met office site and they would not have a clue whats going to happen, here tonight for example, BBC have a weather warning for Lincs for snow and it should be snowing right now, Met office have no warning, temps rising with heavy rain due later. confused.com, lol -

well i think we are close to calling this a winter a bust regarding deep cold and snowy conditions, the 10 day charts of promise at least got to within 5 days, lol, nothing but rain and cloud here for the next 5 days, chilly yes, cold certainly not. lol. -

all fairly positive in the Mod thread, going to be tears in the morning. -
morning all, well we have our first proper cold day ahead of us in what can best be described as a chilly spell, rain forecast sun/mon/tues so temps around 5/6c after today, going through todays posts there is still hope of some wintry weather, hopefully for parts that have not seen any as yet, lets hope the last day of a horrid 2020 can give us the cold upgrades we seek and may 2021 start on the same note, i wish everyone here a better 2021.

Model Output Discussion - Into the new year
sparky1972 replied to SMU's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
good morning all, nice to see a certain ammount of positivity in here so far today, although i am very very unwhelmed from a imby perspective as its not forecast to get any colder than what it is currently and more rain than snow forecast, lol, here is hoping for a day of upgrades in the short and longer term, keep up the good work guys, it does make fasinating reading whatever the outcome. -

Evening all, just seen bbc forecast for the week ahead and they say a chilly but dry week, does this tie in to others opinions of what the models are showing? -

i see there is alot of excitement in the mod thread again this evening, i have noticed in the winters i have been lurking here is the ebb and flow of the model output and the negitive and positive output, I.E, if there is potential cold/snow showing around lunchtime output, it gains momuntum and the evening runs are fantastic, then i check the mod thread the following morning and its all doom and gloom, lunchtime the positivity starts to return, evening output even better, following morning output seems not so good, is this do do with data input or do i read to much into it, lol -
Model Output Discussion - Christmas and New Year
sparky1972 replied to BlueHedgehog074's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
good morning all, well i was hoping to read that the models had downgraded storm Bella but it looks like the models might have downgraded the cold snap by a few comments on here, but there are still plenty of positive comments to cling onto so all is not lost, still 2 months of winter and lockdown to go, Happy Boxing Day all and here is hoping for a day of cold upgrades. -
Model Output Discussion - Christmas and New Year
sparky1972 replied to BlueHedgehog074's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
hope everyone has had a fantastic Christmas day and the weather gods can give parts of the uk a winter everyone craves, i have just set up my new weather station so hopefully it will be christened with some low temps and snow to record, i doubt it but here is hoping, take care tomorrow night as storm Bella comes through then the hope for cold and snow can go from there. -

Very poor forecast for here if its cold and snow you are looking for, with storm Bella incomming tomorrow night it then clears to leave things on the chilly side and cloudy but no real cold and snow. -

sparky1972 replied to Seasonal Trim's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
morning all, well there seems to me a semi positive mood over in the mod thread, hopefully it will start showing in the forecasts soon, met office 5 day and bbc 16 day forecast for mby show nothing wintry at all.
