Model Output Discussion - Early Summer and Beyond
thestixx replied to mushymanrob's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
I've seen a few allusions to this outcome after next week's hot spell. My heart goes out to the Glastonbury goers if this trough sets up over the UK. Where else can be It go though? Huge highs either side.. -

I'm usually an optimist, but GFS & GEM are painting a miserable picture for the start of the school holidays and beyond. ?️?️?️ -

This monster has blocked our evening sunshine. I'm in Huddersfield so this is over the Pennines in Lancashire. -

That 5th image of the Azores stretching far past Scandinavia is model porn for me. That's the classic '76 kinda chart isn't it?! -

Wow. If these were to verify is it correct to presume it could be a vintage summer ala '76 '95 etc? -
Summer 2021: Moans, Groans, Ramps and Banter
thestixx replied to damianslaw's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
Absolutely gutted. I've taken up golf again for the first time in 8 years and heading to Belfast next Thursday. I've been following the posts on here closely and when the breakdown kept on being developed I feared the worst. Bloody typical. I'm hoping this unsettled spell is just a blip to look after the farmers and we can get back on track asap. That low trapped between two highs really gives me the blues in Summer... -

Any talk of breakdowns is definitely looking at a half empty glass IMO. It's a dream start to summer. High pressure is clearly our friend for the foreseeable and we're potentially looking at the first proper flaming June in yonks. Yeehaaa -

I was born in '76 and I'm often reminded of that summer. I remember '95 well as I was commuting over the Pennines from Bradford and witnessed Scammonden dam turn into a virtual dust bowl. 2013 was the next best for prolonged dry weather. It would be a dream for this spell to reload for weeks on end. -

The 18Z GFS is showing an abundance of HP all over northern Europe and long may it continue. Welcome to meteorological Summer everyone -
Spring 2021: Moans, Groans, Ramps and Banter.
thestixx replied to Methuselah's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
2003 was the year I really got fascinated by weather watching. High pressure was omnipresent over and around the UK for months. I remember in August it parked to the west of Ireland for the month just close enough to keep any toppling lows at bay. The summer wasn't exceptional for heat, but was very dry and settled. -

How did I know you'd see the glass half empty In your absence the charts were looking worse than they currently are for anything settled so I'm optimistic they'll continue to improve -

Model thread discussion - cold spell looming

What's the thinking behind this set up? Moist/mild southerlies being pulled up then clashing with frigid easterlies? -

thestixx replied to Lauren's topic in Weather Around The World
What a day. About 10 waterspouts formed in front of my hotel in Rhodes, 3 came in land a made a right mess of next doors parasols etc. I've never seen anything like it. Insane to be so close. I filmed a few, this was after the initial spout had seemingly died off. -

Sat in the Judge lodgings in York centre, it's gone very dark, windy and it feels like I could be in luck for a storm!
