Model thread discussion - cold spell looming
Snowboard Tennyson IOW replied to Paul's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
Where are the charts for this pls? Cheers -
Model output discussion - is the beast awakening?
Snowboard Tennyson IOW replied to Paul's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
I agree, as things moderate this seems the normal pattern between models. What would a middle ground potentially look like though? -
Needs to cool down considerably down here (S England) over the coming days to ensure any precipitation becomes what we want. Models are very interesting and in my view good watching currently, get the block/s in and the rest could evolve. Bumped into a Net weather enthusiast today locally which is a first, and we both discussed the past few years model watching and the great expertise on this forum. Let’s get this pattern locked and loaded

Cold hunt - models and chat
Snowboard Tennyson IOW replied to Paul's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
So the models for the past week that have been widely discussed on this thread have suggested a snow event in the south albeit marginal at times and also caution south coast for rain/sleet. From 18:00 it has been dumping snow in the west IOW with a continued forecast for rain until the early hours! I guess this evidences the immaturity of weather predictions within the immediate time frame of a potential event? I gain more informed forecasting from the well known frequent visitors of this forum than elsewhere -
Winter Thoughts & Hopes 2016/17
Snowboard Tennyson IOW replied to Polar Maritime's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
Steve there Seems to be a potent storm tracking south on Sunday which is the dominant subject on the model thread - I recall similar lows taking a southerly track during our colder winters and causing problems as they stalled? And hung about for a bit. They should suck a load of cold air with them too. Any thoughts? -

Hi folks, am I going totally mad or were/are our professional weather gurus who everyone seems to worship on the mod thread predicting a cold March?and from the middle of the month increasingly colder?? Now looking very much above average from 10 days -!?! All the technology/MONEY chucked into these predictions is worrying... Anyway here's to a bit of spot of warm spring weather. -

Never seen such agreement across the board from all the big players! The forum is going mad I can't keep up with the posts:) we are nailed on for a cold spell aren't we surely based on what the models are chucking out.. As a previous post said - get the cold entrenched 1st then battle royal arrives. I was in Barcelona one year in the 90s when it snowed and it looks like the cold will dig that far south again too. Love it! -
Momentum seems to have built from a few days ago, cold looks to be upon us from early next week. Noticeable temperature change down here already, nice to see day time single figures but want daytime low single figures next week please!? If 850s are -10 then that will mean very low daytime temps. The ground is still warm so a week or so of cold followed by some battle ground action through the channel would be spot on.

Just picked another tomatoe M greenhouse, a nice cucumber next... Garden furniture airborn as winds are ridiculous and lawn needs cutting!! What I keep reading now is "building blocks" which is reminiscent of last year. Models chucking in some lovely charts in F1 but they don't seem to be showing in a more reliable time frame. I am holding onto this winter being in 2 halves as predicted by someone back in November ( think it was two weather). Something needs to change by mid Jan or as the days get longer we may run out I time. Daffodils -
What is interesting this season is the north east tracking of the lows which are currently delivering rain and mild conditions. Where are the SW lows which usually bash the shores ere down south. Looking back at models for 2009 at the same period there seems to be similarity and the north east track delivered floods! Is there going to be a dramatic change during the 2nd Half of November? I hope so and from my limited knowledge the building blocks appear to be in place for the long game, But being the UK it will be Finley poised. For any Snow to stick down here the temperatures need to consistently fall and remain below average.
