  1. Back out of hibernation for what could be the best shot at cold and snow nationwide this winter, in spring. I think the GFS is being a tad too quick at bringing any deep cold to these shores but a cold/very cold outlook for the rest of this month looks the form horse.
  2. There's been some cracking weather these last few weeks. I've recorded more frosts and cold temps during this spell than the rest of winter put together. Next weeks cold spell will hopefully bring more in the way of sunshine and frosty nights, hopefully we won't see those horrid grey laden skies which dominated much of this winter.
  3. Lol, for my locale it was terrible and certainly on par with any of the late 80's, 90's and noughties winters for cold, frosts and snow. IMBY I recorded more frosts during October and November than the whole of December and January, February faired better on the frost front. As for snowfall that was truly woeful and only two winters in the last 30 years of keeping records have been worse, aside from all of that the real disappointment has been the lack of any deep cold, temps have largely been a few degrees above freezing by both day and night with little in the way of any sunshine.
  4. I always felt the GFS handled Northerlys better then the Euros, I don't know whether any stats back this up though.
  5. Indeed, temps in the arctic are well below average for the time of year so any arctic incursions will certainly have a bite to them.
  6. Lol, it's not been the most accurate forecasting tool over the last few months and that's being kind.
  7. Temp 1.7c here, can't see it getting below zero tonight........ Oh wait a minute didn't I say the same last night.
  8. As much as I love my cold and snow mushy I have to agree with you, I'm all for looking for cold charts but it's the constant bigging up of charts at +240hrs which grates me. Also like you I like a sense of realism in what I read, unfortunately some in the MOD thread prefer escapism to realism and god forbid if you comment on anything other than cold chances.
  9. My comment regarding cloudy skies and temps remaining above freezing during this cold spell is already bust, temp got down to -1.6c last night. Beautiful morning here with wall to wall sunshine and a temp of 1.4c, shows how much I know really.
  10. That's probably due to your location and height I would guess, temp here 2.3c.
  11. Looks too me that after the next 5-7 days temps will at best only return to normal values. Could be a cold CET by the end of March maybe.
  12. Yes, the old promising charts at +240 hrs, now where I've I heard that before.
  13. Not much chance of a frost tonight unless we see any breaks in the cloud sheet. Temp at 2.5c now and I can't see falling much further tbh.
  14. The graphics on the beeb weather showed a cloudy start to the morning but this breaking up in the afternoon, fingers crossed. Is that you recording BT?
  15. The CFS has been quite good since February last year, it picked out last Summers washout as well as being pretty good at picking the right signals for this winter back in early Autumn.
  16. It was meant to be a tongue in cheek post, directed at the faux cold brigade. Dry is dry, cold is cold.
  17. Indeed, this IMBY is the second worst winter for recoding frosts and the third worst for recording snowfall in over thirty years of keeping records. A very poor winter in these parts, luckily Spring is around the corner and after a few cool/cold days temps look like recovering to normal values and beyond, hopefully.
  18. Indeed it is a winters month and these last few days have produced the coldest temps of the winter, which shows just how poor the rest of winter has been for cold and frosts.
  19. You obviously have difficulty grasping the concept of what springs weather implies.
  20. Spring starts in March and in case you didn't know it tends to be a very diverse month in terms of temperatures.
