12z GFS similar to 06z even in far FI. We could see a snow~Rain~snow event from the low in the south. It pushes up across the Uk and is then chased south again by the next pulse of cold air. This is as far as the milder air gets and then it’s pushing south again...

The real cold air not far off Northern Scotland now with Minus 20 upper  not far off the Northern Isles. 

Wow if that came off they would get absolutely buried with lake effect snow up there.

Cold run overall, with a sustained below average spell coming up still.

The HP again just sets itself up a little too far NW, though its closer than the 06z run.

Would be a huge flood risk in the south if such a pattern were to establish, though its not really all that far removed from a big snow event, a slightly flatter initial low at 264hrs would bring home the goods.

Its a great pattern bu one that is high risk - high reward. The failure for not making the cut is perhaps very wet weather and flooding.

IF which is a massive IF the weather followed the gfs some places would see large snowfalls. However details at any range passed t120 are JFF. We don’t know where the high will reside yet. The output is great, let’s see what develops.

Not too worried about FI atm. Actually prefer it being a bit west as almost always gets pushed south and east as we get closer to the event.

Whole Europe warmer than normal. Really struggling to see any proper cold.

Try to focus on T144-210 for trends. And the trend is amazing.. Plus T850s become less important once surface inversions develop, it is possible to have high 850s and v cold surface temps.

A snow line sitting somewhere across the Midlands is very seventies/eighties aswell .........

Could I ask for a bit more explanation about that chart please. That is not the GFS forecast of 850hPa temps for 7th of Jan. Doesn't German "mittel" translate to medium?

think metO could be embarrassed.

I don't suppose they're too worried about one run of the GFS at 354hrs to be honest...

Just a friendly reminder folks .Please just discuss the current models in here.

If you wish to exchange views on the met outlook go here

Any general chat here

...and finally we have a learning area for newer chart viewers

https://www.netweather.tv/forum/learning/

We are now very busy so it would help greatly with the flow of the thread if everyone could post in the correct threads as much as possible.

Many thanks.

Just as a heads up, plan to unleash a new and Christmas themed Model Output thread later tonight just for a bit of a refresh (probably around midnight when it should be quieter) ??

All excitement must be contained until NAVGEM is on board. We know it has a massive habit of proving all the main models wrong. Hugely underrated, always been my favourite.

It is an anomaly chart. 30 ja mittel = 30 year average.

That is an amazing chart.....almost too good to be true, in fact.  I can’t remember anything like that actually happening in recent years.  If the CFS was showing such a set-up it would be the butt of many jokes.  Must keep in mind that it’s 12 days off and almost certain not to happen but the fact that it’s a possible solution to the current conditions is cause for celebration itself.
