ANYWEATHER

History tells us that this can be a big scenario at this time of year. Anyway ,a cold outlook to average ,although the relentless rain train ,just about coming to a halt, although there still looks like a peppering of showers at times ,these still wintry. The incedence of frost looks problematic, especially for farmers and growers, and although there looks a fair amount of dry weather going forward, colder than average temperatures won't be what farmers are looking for, to help dry out the land ,and germinate crops ,much quicker if the weather was warmer....

Typical April showers in a rather potent Pm airmass .

CryoraptorA303 not always a SSW to deliver this type of weather which is pretty normal for the time of year. A fragmenting PV is of responsible for changing the default wind pattern at this time of year , to more of a Northerly or even an easterly which is more common during April and May , than at any other time of year!

Point being made ,its happened before ,I'm not going into a big debate over it as the climate thread not here. ☺

carinthian between 1940 and 1960 there was an unprecedented lack of snow in the Alps ,worse than today's fiasco!

BREAKING NEWS:- The first Nationwide dry spell , for 9 months ,predicted by the end of this week.....!☺

Three things stand out this morning from gfs. A drying trend nationwide, that must be the most important thing that stands out. Secondly, a chilly airmass enveloping the UK, bonus plenty of sunshine, especially southeastern Britain. Thirdly, Frost ,will be problematic for just about all nationwide. A lot to cheer about, now the rain train is coming to a halt ,some pleasant Spring like weather on the way, ,no heavy rain , No gales , and bright cheery weather to be had , what's not to like about that! ☺

Quick summary. Best charts I’ve seen in a long time for eventually the weather settling down. The change is underway, but needs a little more time for the complete settled weather to arrive! Anyway, trends looking the best I’ve seen all year….

Instead of a dartboard low over the UK , we have at day ten a flabby dartboard high.....

Marcus_surfer looks like you’ve got the milder airmass moving , hence the advection fog ….

Well said mate! I would like to make a list of all the predictions to do with greenhouse effect, global warming ,climate change etc , and see how many of the predictions have come true Might actually take that to the climate change thread at some point and see how many excuses some people can make for all those predictions over the last 40 years ,never coming to fruition! ☺

B87 Thanks B87 ☺

Anybody please tell me what a Csb and Csa is??? Thx

CryoraptorA303 What is Csb and Csa??

SunnyG May and June seeing good weather conditions this year , July and August, changeable, September stays fair.

B87 April 2007 = April 1997..

Well there we are then, everything they predict fails to materialise. ...

Methuselah And...........?

Another load of baloney. It seems to me that the media can spin and spin mis- information, lies and deceit and not have any repurcusions for their actions. I for one have been listening to their Scaremongering for many years, if I would have had been brainwashed, by their BxxxSxxt over the years I would have slit my throat. ...

Bright but cold airmass by day ten , from ecm ,much different from the gfs version ,and ecm evolution I much prefer, although a few Wintry April showers can't be ruled out especially for northeastern areas of Britain. As it's day ten ,a huge pinch of salt as it won't verify like that, but please ,please ,please let's have some sunshine and no rain, surely not a lot to ask for after 9 months of rain even for our 0.01% corner of the Globe!☺

bluearmy 14 days!!! it's been saying that for the last 9 months

Gfs ,really shows how difficult it is to develop a foothold of high pressure across southern Britain ,let alone northern parts ! Big downgrades in the last 24 hrs and I'm not liking the look of where things are going.! The jet stream is way too strong coming across the Atlantic and supresses any kind of development of high pressure across the uk ,apart from some brief ridges from time to time across southern Britain. Not happy at all with the outlook from the gfs , hope ecm can help us out...

Unprecedented, nothing is that when it comes to Planet Earth, third rock from the sun! The only thing that you could call unprecedented is the vast population of humans living on this rock, apart from that there is nothing new under the sun….

Roll on.....☺

At last it looks like the Atlantic is going to slow right down ,both gfs and ecm show a pattern change in the later stages of about a weeks time ,halting the rain train. This chart although a very cold airmass for the time of year would probably be bone dry for most of southern Britain, although any precipitation would be wintry. Plenty of sunshine away from the far northwest of Britain. Anyway some good news at least on the rainfall aspect, but still need to be careful of Jack Frost sniffing about the gardens with charts like thus one!
