At the [url="http://forum.netweather.tv/blog/227/entry-4452-very-early-first-look-at-winter-20122013/"]start of August[/url] I posted a blog entry giving a forecast for the winter ahead now 30 days later it's time for an update.
[b]Rainfall Averages,[/b]
[b]October:[/b][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif] Still looking average for the UK but Southern Scotland below average.[/font][/color]
[b]November:[/b][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif] Below average for most of Ireland, Scotland and Northern England, elsewhere average.[/font][/color]
[b]December:[/b] Below average for Southern Scotland and South Eastern England, elsewhere average.
[b]January:[/b][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif] Below average for most of the UK, mainly inland area's but average for the coasts.[/font][/color]
[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][b]February: [/b]Average for most but below for Southern England and Northern Ireland.[/font][/color]
[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][b]Changes in the last month: [/b]The CFS has changed from what looked like to be mainly average rainfall to below average for most of the winter.[/font][/color]
[b]Temperatures[/b][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif] still looking average for most of the winter but it looks like below average for South Eastern England during January and February.[/font][/color]
[b]Changes in the last month:[/b] Not much still saying average for most of the winter, the only change is colder temperatures for the South East.
[b]Current Long Range Outlook Based On CFS,[/b]
[b]October:[/b][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif] First 2 weeks high pressure mainly in charge. Final 2 weeks more unsettled with some short cold spells from the North.[/font][/color]
[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][b]November:[/b] The entire month is completely dominated by high pressure so a very settled and dry month.[/font][/color]
[b]December:[/b][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif] Another month completely dominated by high pressure but this time a Easterly is more likely so cold weather for the East and South.[/font][/color]
[b]January:[/b][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif] This is now the third month running with high pressure still in charge although this time cold weather is less likely more mild temperatures. Another settled month.[/font][/color]
[b]February:[/b][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif] In the first week we get a short lived Easterly giving us cold weather then for the rest of the month it turns even colder when a Northerly takes charge.[/font][/color]
[b]March:[/b][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif] During the first 2 weeks we start off with a strong Easterly then it turns into another Northerly. For the rest of March high pressure takes charge again and turns into a very short lived Northerly to finish it all off.[/font][/color]
[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Some big changes in the forecast for this winter the CFS has gone from a winter similar to last year to now a much colder, drier and settled one. I will update this again at the end of September.[/font][/color]
