  1. Uppers getting progressively more marginal for anything other than cold rain/sleet on the coast tomorrow morning. Dew points look good however: But temps above freezing: Only time will tell!
  2. We're either hardy souls expected to just cope, or BBC Scotland ought to invest in a monitor and internet connection to look at the radar occasionally and work out what is actually happening like the rest of us manage to.
  3. We have a result. Thank you very much to everyone who voted
  4. Doing a quick poll for Midlands members here - please vote:
  5. Following a number of conflicting requests to the team please vote in the poll above Would folk in the English midlands prefer one united regional thread or to continue with the current east and west midlands pair of threads? Will close this at 23h00.
  6. Last Friday the GFS modelled that the Atlantic would break through the block on Wednesday (i.e. now). On Monday the GFS modelled that the Atlantic would break through the block on Saturday. Today the GFS is modelling that the Atlantic will break through the block on Tuesday. Isn't this typical "hopecasting" behaviour?!
  7. Anybody else noticing a sudden ballooning of shower activity in the last forty minutes heading westwards off the N Sea towards the length of the Scottish east coast?!
  8. The band of ppn moving southwest over Fife appears to be perking up...
  9. Well Pete, three days ago the GFS progged the Atlantic to overwhelm the block over to the east by Wednesday. Three days later and the GFS progs the Atlantic to overwhelm the block three days later...
  10. I can't find a nearby webcam to check :lol:
  11. Lots of members have been asking for a split in this thread between the east and west mids - and we're happy to oblige: East Mids: West Mids: Will lock this thread in five
  12. Lots of members asking for a split in the 'Midlands thread' so here you have it - west mids members chat away here And anyone living near Bescot - lucky you

  14. My take would be that this is because one person is looking at Monday/Tuesday where indeed the 12z GFS Is a big improvement on the 06z. But the second person is moving onto Weds next week and it's back to westerly zonal weather on the 12z GFS, whereas the European models are suggesting (along with the constant anomaly charts that don't swing wildly like every run) that mid week next week will be a blocked pattern with continuing cold across the UK. So, it is both looking much better, but then a 'horror show'!
  15. A quick comparison: 00h00 on Tuesday T+132 12GFS T+144 00z ECM So having ducked the early return of a westerly flow in this GFS run - still absolutely huge differences between the two big guns 5 days out. 12z UKMO going with the 00z ECM... What a palaver.
  16. Going to be an interesting end to January/start of Feb
  17. Worth remembering this synoptic set-up wasn't shown at T+240, or T+168 even. There wasn't a big countdown with tropospheric models showing 'will it/won't it' and the resultant hope-raising and arguments across the board. It came out of nowhere only 48 hours ago. That should inform and reassure members as to where FI la-la land begins at the moment with the current atmospheric set-up.
  18. Have sorted it out just this second!
  19. With the new northern England threads - it's been pointed out that my fellow Yorkshire people are left threadless! Can't have that!
  20. Lots of requests to split this thread so - here's what we're trialling: Far north of Englanders go here: http://forum.netweat...nal-discussion/ Those of you in the north west post here: http://forum.netweat...egional-thread/ Here's a handy map: Region 1 is north west Region 2 is far north
  21. We've had lots of requests for a split in the north of England regional thread, so here's an attempt at following that feedback. I'm so helpful I did a map. This is the new Region 1 Forum!
