Model Output Discussion 01/09/17
Ross Andrew Hemphill replied to phil nw.'s topic in Forecast Model Discussion
Jesus Christ I need some paracetamol after reading the latest here, but what a stonker of an 18z! This chopping and changing within a few days of now is really crazy, just shows how hard blocking can be to forecast. -

This is what I thought when I saw the 850s for Monday when that front moves in, let's hope so! -

Is a cut-off low over us a bad thing? Surely it could drag cold air in? -
I'm sure that October 2010 and 2012 had decent falls in Scandinavia, but that's all the evidence I have. I got this idea from members here discussing it, and also from Gavin's winter updates over the past few years. It's of course not the one thing that needs to materialise for us to have a cold winter, but I guess it tells us that the Atlantic is less zonal than it should be if there's snow there, or at least a more negative tilt to the jet towards NW Europe.

Models cooling down the UK into November is looking interesting, although once it's within T+100 I'll take notice more (well I'll try not to take notice until then!). -

Hurricane Ophelia
Ross Andrew Hemphill replied to Jo Farrow's topic in Hurricanes, Cyclones and Extreme weather worldwide
Agreed! We're used to what we've got right now (maybe 60mph), hoped for more but it's only October! Praying for a quick recovery in Ireland, really wild day for them. -

Not a breath of air currently. I can hear the low "roar" of the rain outside though depicting its heaviness, which is quite relaxing -

And the worst isn't even here yet! This is bad... Woke up at about 9:15am and thought it was about 7am because of how dark it is! That Saharan dust is playing its part, along with the cloud and rain. -
Hurricane Ophelia

I think it's supposed to make a turn towards the Irish Coast before landfall, although anything can happen really. -
Hurricane Ophelia
Ross Andrew Hemphill replied to Jo Farrow's topic in Hurricanes, Cyclones and Extreme weather worldwide
Definitely still a hurricane in my opinion,, still a closed centre. Anyone else have thoughts on this? -
Hurricane Ophelia
Ross Andrew Hemphill replied to Jo Farrow's topic in Hurricanes, Cyclones and Extreme weather worldwide
I'm sure it was forecast to do that, and then dive more eastwards before landfall. -
