  1. Am I the the only one still hoping for snow? I don't want to wait another nine or 10 months for snow. I hope the proper reversal of the Zonal Winds this time will lead to the mother of all northerly (-14 -16 uppers over Scotland and Northern Ireland and -10 -12 everywhere else) during the final third of March. I know it's a pipe dream!
  2. I think the second half of March will be quite cold due to the SSW- but probably too late in the day to bring wintry nirvana. The lament of if only this was a month ago might be expressed.
  3. The background drivers didn't fail, they are just a reminder that they do not guarantee cold for us. Something has overriden them and the signal for a back loaded winter. No doubt next winter we will have a strong pv over Greenland. Well at least in that scenario we won't have our hopes raised by any UKMO long range forecasts
  4. johncamthe story of the winter really. Any cold that does try to make it gets cut off, but for the spoiler Iberian High this could have been a winter to remember . Well and truly sick of it now. I was hoping we'd get a noticeable late February cold spell to rescue this winter but it doesnt seem likely now
  5. Met4Cast 61 per cent is still high. It could be just inter run variance. In any case if it doesn't happen it might be just as well if we see a repeat of what happened with the last ssw, albeit for different reasons this time. I mean the last thing we want is an emerging cold spell through late February to be upended by a ssw.
  6. MJB Jason M Yes, but the UKMO has been wrong a lot this year. It wouldn't surprise if they change their outlook again. We were supposed to be in easterlies at one stage according to them
  7. bluearmy so a repeat of what happened with the last SSW is likely. Blooming fantastic. The story of this winter if it pans out like that.
  8. nick sussex The ECM will probably move towards the GFS as the UKMO has. I wouldn't trust the UKMO for the weekend after this climbdown. It's annoying how the worst scenario nearly always seem to verify. Well nothing has verified yet, but the form horse looks like a snow to rain event at best. That doesn't really interest me.
  9. January Snowstorm This event is not looking great for us 24 hours of rain and sleet with snow confined to high ground. I am focusing on after mid month now. If we get a proper cold spell to see out winter it will have been worth the endless roller coaster, but if it's another letdown it will go down as one of the most disappointing winters in recent times given the background drivers looked very positive for a notable cold spell at some point.
  10. If the GFS doesn't backtrack by this evening I think we are going to end up in a half-way house solution which means cold rain for most on lower ground . As regards later on this month, what if we see a repeat of what happened in January with a ssw scuppering a cold spell. Although knowing our luck a proper freeze will finally take hold in March.
  11. A cold March, perhaps? Let's hope we don't get a repeat of what happened in January anyway.
  12. Thanks Paul. It seems to have solved the issue.
  13. Hi Paul, I am still having the same issue when I view the forum in portrait mode.
  14. I am having the same problem- posts jumbled on top of each other. I will try the landscape option
