I suppose Ireland could be a little worse? -

GEFS Mean into New Year starts to play with ridging over the UK and Europe. The GFS Op gives a particularly unpleasant example of this with ridging all over Europe and low after low going through the UK out into the unreliable. -

GEFS mean weakens the signal as well. Worth reiterating the the GEFS mean wasn't close to the Op runs all of yesterday. -

ECM 12Z Op is still not going along with the GFS Op regarding the snow prospects for the period 25th to 27th. -

It depends which model runs and which models are looked at. As an example.... But the mild air is not outlandish for your general area, as you can see. -

Most are still there, but they get drowned out. I suggest you make use of the ignore list, as it is much easier to read the thread. I personally like to read what BlueArmy and CreweCold have to say, because although they want a certain outcome, they don't overstate the chances of it. -

jvenge replied to Paul's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
For what time period? I think if there is snow to be had it is most likely to come late evening on the 25th until the 27th. It's not just looking at precipitation but also what looks to be rain and snow and then trying to figure out even if you get falling snow if it will settle. Just to add though, the GFS Op is amongst the most optimistic snow potential model runs on display. In reality I don't think the model means are too far apart for that festive period. -

I think the GFS has been at the Christmas sherry for my location. No, I don't expect that to happen and I won't cry about models being crap when it doesn't. -

You shouldn't question the wisdom of the model whisperers -

Although there is obviously a signal for what the GFS Op shows, the ensemble mean is distinctly not as enthusiastic and generous as the Op. -

Almost, but the latency applies to the transfer as well, not just the delay in beginning transmission, as is usually based upon the quality of connection between the points and also physical distance. That's the networking term anyway. I think the person who came up with that gem is probably trying to say that the data was already out of date as it was rolling out and therefore you shouldn't believe the run. Yes, even for netweather in winter that's a very creative one. -

Isn't that the general idea of mogreps? Runs so often and updates the metoffice forecast many times per day? Metoffice forecasts seem to update every two hours and they do indeed change, so I assume that changing output can only be from mogreps, unless someone else knows of something else they use? But anyway, surely it is a good thing they run so often and can change based on what they see. -

ECM Control and ENS favours cold rain for the majority for the period of interest. Although from the mean there is probably a cluster seeing something closer to the much loved GFS Op. -

jvenge replied to damianslaw's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
Mild for my location too but I suppose there is some interest for the UK from boxing day onwards, but after that people seem to be looking at different time periods, precipitation levels, rain, snow, etc, and trying to big up a consensus that seems to be very wonky and not as good as stated. -

I guess for you looking at Manchester Airport should give a hint of what the GFS showed this morning. -

Not to mention the difference between quite a lot of rain vs snow. -

I suppose he means poor output. Not a preferred outcome. -

Oh I dunno, it is some what of a guilty pleasure. People complimenting the GFS this morning when they were completely trashing it last week. The mental gymnastics at play is quite extraordinary. In small doses it is quite funny, but it kinda does ruin the thread. -

Yep - ECM is giving rain for the period where GFS shows snow. -

jvenge replied to damianslaw's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
I ignore most people posting in the thread but sometimes (well okay, all the time) its better to just look at the outputs yourself. GFS this morning shows a snow event beginning the very early hours of boxing day. But it has very poor support on the ensembles. I'll let the model whisperers guess the rest. -

Yes I saw But I didn't want to cause increased call load to the samaritans. By the way that squirrel has to be getting on a bit... -

Yes the 06z det is a very very slight downgrade (for cold prospects) vs the 0z up to t90 vs t96 this morning, but it really is very slight. -

jvenge replied to Paul's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
6z det only goes to T90 (00z on 24th). But till that time it shows a slower advance of cold air than the 00z this morning, but there isn't much in it.
