Interestingly, the long term BBC video is massively ramping mild for 8-9 days time - guessing it must of been based on EC 0z, which I didn't see, but must have been not much cop.

 

Are you referring to Tomas S's forecast?  Lots of twists and turns to come with the models I think!  Latest BBC monthly forecast not looking bad for cold.

Shades of 2018 here - the GEFS mean has latched onto a Scandi High deep into FI and seems to be counting down. That's at least 6 runs in a row on the same date.

But I'd feel better still if it became a 1030mb mean high

GEFS 850s mean for 6th Feb now down to -6 for London. Thats Progress from -4/ -5 for the last several runs.

I expect them to look very good in the graph form when they update .

This set is gonna be an absolute snorter - tell tale sign when the mean 850's barely gets any warmer over a few frames, it means the ridge is just staying in situ holding the Atlantic from making any inroads.

Majority cluster now either cold or severely cold. This is usually when they start to go down the pan - 24 to 48 hours more of this and we are home and hosed.

That’s it tho Feb we’ve been here before this winter, but not with the reversal/mjo push concurrently.  The EC mean turnaround tonight is also noteworthy, SW to E mean.image.thumb.gif.c55156f20ab07492d95b6d2b0ee3ca62.gifimage.thumb.gif.c1460ea2db85942a2ac7bf756ac0a8b1.gif

Lots of the runs get there w/o a big Atlantic height rise, the wedge just sort of materialises which is even better really. makes you think there’s big forcing on the pattern not a reliance on a sequence of iffy steps. 

Two solid days of upgrades needed here and we can start popping the corks.And perhaps get some clarity on what category of easterly rather than whether it’s going to be one.

Having the Meto/BBC on board calms the nerves, and that GEFS mean is outrageous @CreweCold, but it’s no in the bag yet.

It needs to be there in the morning first!

Ridge actually gaining latitude on a mean 300+ 30 member chart!!!!!!!

@londonblizzard i will take this one for the biggest dumping.

That would be a Feb 91 redux, 30 years to the day.

How do you like your daytime maxima Jan 87 style - -5c over most parts and -12c over highland Scotland under that slack flow.

Yes. Didn't take much notice. Tomas loves a mild ramp and was based on out of date modelling.

I don’t know why we are discussing this as the snow charts will change every run but Stoke is very near the Peak District ...

Good old Barnsley in the top right corner. Cracking view from my house. Live just to the left of the barnsley. Yellow marker. Stunning view on a clear day. 30/45 mins bike on the trans pennine trail you hit Dunford bridge. Edge of the pennines Stunning absolutely stunning.

All that hair he has aquired might be impacting his judgement

Just catching up - some outrageous ensembles from the 18z. Starting to feel all 2018 - surely the MJO is playing a big role here?

GFS op has adjusted south by about 30 miles with the snow event Saturday,

The para maintains its more southern path.

Accumulations will probably be held back due to the rain before it turns to snow, will be a forecasters nightmare I think again. Few cms looking at least possible over a wide area though I imagine.

Ukmo looks decent at 144, could do with low not blowing up, but at least it has the wedge.

GFS OP starting to smell the coffee at 144 with a super weak high now near Iceland, will probably need a couple more runs to get on the same page as the other models

Para maintaining the wedge at 144
