Well, in synoptics, one never writes anything off or on π Synoptic "freaks" (try to) predict, and if they found to be false, they just say, ehh, its a chotic system, you never know, sorry π I had posted some howmΓΆllers over to @bluearmy but got no response yet. I found them to be lets say promising. Matchday forme around 25th, after that storm low moved on.

One must seperate the outcomes of a SSWE. Displacement or even Split. If Split, where is the axis? If displacement, where are the boundaries, how are the flows affected? This actual SSW is a displacement, and ME/WE is at the westerly boundaries, so to say battleground of air masses. That's a bit of bad luck ATM, but with some minor warmings, may it will split... See left down corner? Temp_max is raising

I personally am against mean charts after d4 as the get too diffuse. I will try to specify why: The advantage of the ENS mean is purely statistical and must be understood as such. From a synoptic point of view, however, averaged maps show unreal situations. This becomes immediately clear to you when you imagine a bifurcation (and every deviation, no matter how small, is in principle the beginning of a bifurcation). Both branches develop on the basis of calculations of physical driving forces and reflect physically real scenarios in the calculated state space. But if one determines a mean

Thanks for your answer. I will say, that once the easterly flow is developed, with that snow and ice coverage to the east and a rather neg AO/NAO (westerlies will have to fight hard against cold ground air masses and flows), it will just strengthen up. So while I am not living at the pole, I am very happy with this signal (snow in garden tralala), and as I mentioned in strat thread, EC Outputs are quite reliable on that timeframe.

If we just would accept, that the NW of Europe isn't THE ALPS, ones would have a easyer life for shure. I am on ca. 200m ASL, and had snow for a couple of hours, frost only a few nights, but I am not moaning about it as others do. That's maybe the difference in enthusiasm, ones are interested in snowfall in their garden, others (like me) are interested in overall synoptics and don't give a great s... about local outcomes. Last year, for example, we had a night, when 850 raised from -8 to +4 within 2-3 hours, with heavy precipitations going trhough all physical states of water, s
