I'm feeling a change is on the way...if nothing else ,we may get something more seasonal..so 4.0c for me please

With all this talk of mild weather and potentially a mild Christmas it's made me wonder how this weekends weather was being modelled 14 days ago? After all, that's how many days it is til the big day itself. For instance between tonight and Sunday morning I can see some snow forecast , daytime temps of 3/4 degrees and night time temps of -5 to -10.... Was any of this forecast to be likely from 2 weeks ago? so , with all that said , I give you the following charts .....c'mon snow...LETSBEHAVINYA

4.7c please....

6.8c please

I would have thought that many of the charts posted on this forum are " frequently" off target even at relatively short time periods. This is the Model Output Discussion forum....as such, one would have thought that any Model Output should be available for discussion.

It's going to be 10.5c........please

Hopefully this is model related....it does appear to me...that this year has seen a number of low pressure systems move across the UK and then up the North Sea....certainly more so than I can remember in past years. Is this something that is likely to continue into the winter months and what influence would that have on the weather we would experience ?

13.5 c please

An all too familiar story Frosty"..If Summer Was A Movie ? ..............................

So still a rather changeable outlook I'm afraid and with the Summer clock ticking away I get the feeling that any long term Summer UK wide weather is still some way in the distance of at all. I think your probably right Gibby...... After all , some of us have been waiting almost a year for Summer conditions..☔☔☔

Hi Mushy.......for those living in the Northern half of the UK...more especially North and west Scotland......I'm afraid that's exactly what's required And even that would not redeem this non summer. Anything remotely good in FI remains,for us at least,as far away as ever.

Here's hoping you're right Frosty.....quite frankly I could count the number of days we've had sunny weather,or temps above 20c,on the fingers of one hand!! It wouldn't be a " comeback" for this part of the world because there really has been no summer this year..........my worry is that the extended outlook has shown room for gradual improvements since May.....but to no avail

15c...nothing special.....'Nuff Said...☔ï¸

Summer ?!?!?! Pah.... Pffttt..... Pi##.... Feel free to add your own comments ..................

Oops Stormyking....I'm guessing that,whilst some will agree with you, a lot of folk on here.....certainly further north and west would take issue with some of this. Certainly not been a dry summer up this way.....and I would LOVE to have experienced mid to high 20s this summer.....in fact mid to late teens has been the order of the day....and if August fails to deliver then this Summer will go down as very poor in my book..... But I guess that's the UK for you....many in the SE will no doubt view it as a pretty warm and sunny one...

As most folk probably said pre 2010.... You just never know with the weather..... It seems weird talking about Autumn when I've yet to have any Summer weather of note but I would so like to have some seasonal Autumn weather.... For it to gently ease in ....some beautiful early Autumn warmth but with knowledge that frost isn't far away......as nights draw in give me some proper Autumn storminess and let this later give way to the first touches on the Winter to come... That'll do me fine..

Heating on tonight?? Brr

Yes ,as you say Frosty, reloads of hot weather are quite apparent. Also apparent is how the fine and warm weather continues to evade much of the North and and Northwest of Britain. Summer has really failed to get going up this way....basically swapping the very cool early June for warmth in the last week or so...and tbh is doesn't seem as though there are signs of a period of decent weather.....more than a day or two, here and there.

Well, I think some of us will definetely be seeing some action today...but where? Very warm and sultry at the moment with a strong wind picking up . Looks as though the real action could be further north and east later on......already some interest further towards the northwest and currently moving in towards the Edinburgh area.

I'm pretty confident tomorrow night will materialise ....in fact I'm 100% sure ........BUT

17c please

Crazy.HC...now, I know this is only a theory and....I could be way of the mark here.. But it could ,just could, be something to do with this thing called Summer?? I believe I've seen some folk referring to it on the MT

We'll certainly some interesting weather coming up next week...a bit of something for everyone hopefully. It's looking like the initial thundery weather will be around the west coast from later Tuesday ....with the peak of the interest later on Wednesday ....could well be some flash flooding around after the significant build up of heat etc during the day.....I'd imagine we'll be seeing some smashing storm photos through the week.

Hmm....I see some on the model thread are going a bit crazy on the possible record breaking heat for next week. I guess for many of us we like to see the extremes in weather ,as that's the pay off for much of the crap we endure for the majority of the year!! Next week for heat and storm lovers "may " end up as enticing as Dec 2010 was for the cold lovers. However,I'm afraid im not particularly embracing the thought of temps in the mid 30s( I know that's unlikely here) or the humidity or the potential for severe storms. I just saw a chart that had 26c for the SE at 2am !!!!!! My concern comes from the health impacts for some folk both young and old .....and also the severe flooding that comes from flas flooding and the impact that has .....I'd be more than happy for a spell of nice summer weather ,say early to mid 20s..especially after this summer so far. So ,for me, the SE can keep what's shown for next week...much as it's exciting to see. DR (S) NO

Hi Carinthian, That almost sounds like the earliest winter ramp EVER.
