    Don't get me wrong, I've nothing against easterlies, I live in the east of Scotland, and we get plenty of snow from the east given the right synoptics eg March 2013. The current set-up is stale.
  2. snow1975
    It happened in 1984, we had nearly 2ft of snow up here. Look at this chart for 31st Jan 2014.

    Here's the GFS 12Z chart for 31st Jan, which shows a very cold westerly heading our way, if the Scandi block can bugger aff east and let it in. Potentially a snowy 1st Feb! That has a Jan 84 look about it!

    Looks like the ECM00Z is siding with yesterday's GFS12Z. Easterly? What easterly. Looking zonal next week and beyond. Head to the hills if you want snow where there'll be plenty of it at times.
  5. snow1975
    Apart from a limpet easterly attempt on the ECM/GFS early next week, the GFS 12Z becomes increasingly zonal in FI. Its IF I know, but it looks increasingly wintry the further north you go with plenty of snow for the ski centres.
  6. snow1975
    The present weather has gone stale. Some charts from the GFS 12z. Some very interesting charts appearing in FI with increasing zonal activity. Cold air digging in behind the lows is likely to bring wintry showers with plenty snow for the ski centres.

    Stargazing Live is on BBC1 right now. The Aurora is expected tonight, from midnight onwards. Huge CME occurred last night. 'X rated' so a big Solar Wind event.

    Lets no forget the Jam model, a decent model. Check oot this jammy chart. Notice the WAA up western Greenland associated with the big low exiting Canada....jist what we need for a Greenie.
  9. snow1975
    With ref to -51...with it being North America, you are never too sure what they mean. Is it the actual air temperature, is it centigrade or Fahrenheit or the anomaly or the windchill effect temperature??
  10. snow1975
    A heavy shower passed over at 1.40pm, no thunder and sun out now.

    I'm no model expert but you often here the seasoned pros often saying the GFS 12Z is notoriously progressive?
  13. snow1975
    Thats not surprising with -20C uppers pushing south.
  14. snow1975
    Ice pellets (irregular with snow-like flakes) with rain at 3.45pm falling from high cloud base, probably Altostratus. Dry-bulb 5.0c/wet-bulb 3.6C/dew 1.9C
  15. snow1975
    The ECM 12z ends with a meridonal pattern across the Atlantic. Mild SSW flow over the UK with WAA, could do with a more S'ly flow up to Svaalbard to help inflate a Scandi high and drag in the deep cold pool from Europe. As it stands, looks like heading for Greece or SE England. There must be a pattern change coming since the model runs are inconsistent eg. Thursdays zonal ECM vrs yesterday's reverse zonal 12Z vrs todays meridonal pattern.
  16. snow1975
    Cold zonality in the latter frames of ECM ought to deliver snow showers to Scotland especially above 200 metres.
  17. snow1975
    AACH, we had mare snaw than that in Nov/Dec 2010
  18. snow1975
    Those westerlies could be pretty cold especially the further north you are. Plenty snow above 300m I think.
  19. snow1975
    get yourself a decent one http://www.russell-scientific.co.uk/kew-barometers-11-c.asp costs approx £1350, a scientific mercury barometer will last 50+years and will remain accurate/stable. My station mean temperature anomaly for the month so far stands at +1.7C compared to the 1981-2010 average..

    Could be orographic enhancement over the upslopes of the Moors. The seeder-feeder mechanism.
  21. snow1975
    Any chance of some Jan 1984 action in Jan 2014? Joe B is banging on about a Jan 94 pattern in the US. Jan 94 was unremarkable over here.
  22. snow1975
    some nice info http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/features/25499488
  23. snow1975
    you are going to beat that!
  24. snow1975
    I spent 6 years in southern England, 3 at Uni and 3yr working in central London. I love the climate doon there.....hot summers, big thunderstorms. Didn't get a cold winter when I was there. I think its easier to get aff with an English lassie than a Scotttish one. The English like to take the pish oot the Scots and vice versa. Just take it on the chin and move on.

    Yes, people must get their junk mail. Even if a red warning, we are still sent oot and thats just after watching a health and safety video.
