Annnnnnnnd with an easterly so shall I return to the forum!
all my beautiful posts have gone! Eeeeeek, but never mind!! I've been following the winter solely on the Meto updates (since 2011!), but got the impression something was afoot from their almost unprecedented forecasts of quite cold. Surprised by the current output is an understatement, thrilled is not an understatement, being in the front line for easterly action as I am here in a chilly Norwich. Looking through the models and if I can remember how to read them (!) looks like the main danger will be shortwave activity over the top and possible sinking of the coldest weather into Europe, but this does not look favourite on the 00 suite and the 06. Very little, actually zero, danger of a Scandiberian (TM snowmaiden 2009) locking us out on the mild side. Hope you are all in good spirits, I see a lot of you haven't gone anywhere in the last 5 years! Good
