Hi guys,sorry for not posting,been a bit off it of late with my OH's illness
the synoptic charts from the models have every chance of verifying an easterly at this time of the year thanks to La nina(cold back end of winter) and with the SSW that has just happened recently would fit the bill too,of course we still have some milage to get it down to T-0 but i have been viewing the charts/anomalies etc for some time now and i do see some consistancy in them
here staight out of the blocks is the latest 500mb height anomaly from the EPS currently out to 336 hrs
you can see the trough undercut(-ve heights) to the south and +ve heights to the N/NW,this would fetch in an easterly
and the wind direction probabilities from De-built showing a strong easterly
whether it will be cold enough for snow is yet to be decided for a while but i am keeping an eye or two on this
CPC in the same-ish ballpark.
i will add further in the coming days if this easterly gains traction
night all
