  1. Cracking! We must also remember that this is from this morning's run which was slightly less favourable for cold in the extended.
  2. We really need a similarly wintry ecm 00z suite in the morning to settle nerves.
  3. The difference is those charts are for this coming Sunday. I don't think many of the ensembles are showing those sort of charts for Sunday now.
  4. I can see what you mean but the problem we have is the models are downgrading at an earlier timeframe.
  5. I love snow more than anyone but I am also a realist who says it as it is. All I am seeing is delay after delay. Most of the proper cold spells are actually brought forward in time, not put back.
  6. I would suggest that you ask yourselves just one question today. How confident do you feel today about a significant cold spell starting in about 10 days time compared to how confident you felt 24 to 48 hours ago? Be honest.
  7. I will be more concerned if that trend continues on the 12z run. Never rated the 06z or it's ensembles. I personally think it should be scrapped altogether along with the 18z and we just have the 00z and 12z. This would help alleviate so much stress.
  8. To be fair, every op run no matter which model we are referring to varies run to run. The last few ecm op runs have toyed with heights to our north/north east towards the end of the runs as opposed to heights to our north west.
  9. And for those just dismissing the ecm op out of hand, do so at their own peril. It very often leads the way when the other models still have their blinkers on.
  10. There is something flattening the upstream pattern in the 5 to 7 day timeframe this winter. Not sure what it is but it's been happening all winter. So when days 8 to 10 work down to days 5 to 7, things don't look anywhere near as good as they did.
  11. Much flatter in the Atlantic at day 5 compared to yesterday's run. Not good.
  12. GFS 18z ens are great. Look in tandem with the ecm ens which is always a good sign
  13. Then redeems itself. Like everything else at the moment - crazy times!
  14. Going west based neg nao before the cold spell gets going. Getting silly now!
  15. Absolutely. Too many getting hung up on the GFS 18z op. Has the pub run EVER verified ? Been model watching for 15 years now and I know what I think of the pub run - not repeatable on here lol Having said that, even the drunkard gets there in the end tonight
  16. Of course. However, I think this time round with very slack, stagnant conditions in the immediate run up, coupled with deep mid winter timing, most have a chance, even down there
