I tell you what, I am getting blooming fed up of having things change on a daily basis.

At lease last year we knew we were going to get mild zonality. I only looked at the ensemble's this morning and they where showing real potential for a good cold period with -8/10 air over parts of the UK

Just looked again and it's now showing +3 air!

There are major changes with every run.
