South East & East Anglia Regional Discussion - January 9th 2013>

Thats the best ramps you got Yamkins ??

Those ramps are just for starters. I think we must not forget about animals joining in the ramping mode as well

[abruzzi spur]

Looks about as good as mine, has it arrived as we don't want it stuck in a snow drift when the fun starts

I ordered it 15 mins ago and it says 3 - 5 days delivery so there must be a risk it will leave the warehouse but won't get here until, ooh, May when the snow finally melts.

Blimey I think that is my first ever ramp. I quite enjoyed it and might try another....

BLIZZARDS INCOMING!

FOR EVER!

...ahem.. apologies. Suncream anyone?

MetO will be issuing an update on this forth coming colder period to Croydon Council. Stay tuned and get ready to ramp all the way

TWO ramps is one for you and the other Johns Edited January 9, 2013 by blackprince

gfs at 102

brrrrrrrrrr

[A Wintry Mix]

The mood looks like turning again in the model thread!

[john pike]

not worried

looks good for the south east

[Jan_Bromley]

Oh my god. GFS not having any of it. Peeps think it could be a mild outlier as the lows movement near iceland dont make sense.

I cant stand this lol

I'm worn out by it! Maybe clarity tomorrow?

TWO ramps is one for you and the Johns

JP & I have got our concrete ramp under armed guard....................The ramp is really mouth watering

[john pike]

120 gfs thats the limit on this run now

[Jayces]

I'm happy we are almost guaranteed snow at some point over the weekend.

Would be nice for the GFS to come on board though.

It does look like we could be in for a succession of cold blasts though rather then one continues one but the latter would be preferable.

Don't think we will really know about next week until sometime over the weekend.

Still this weekend is showing promise

The GFS keeps doing a cheeky one by keeping the south east in the cold alot longer than the rest of the country.

By a lot longer i mean another day.

According to the Mirror it's going to last 3 weeks

[Paul Sherman]

The differences between the GFS & The UKMO/ECM Are laughable even at T120!

How can the Jet Profile on the T120 Chart be NW To SE And the Shortwave move North or North East ?? It defies logic surely ??

This will have an adverse effect on the rest of the run so I would once again bin anything past T120, Not because I dont want to see it but from what is written above the Model must be wrong from that stage!

I can guarantee 3/4 of the Ensembles will not support it and it will be a Mild Outlier once again!

Once again though I am remembering the ECM Debacle at the start of december and how appallingly it performed and then the GFS Picked up that signal of massive jet energy of the US Seaboard.

I have a feeling the 00z run will only keep us scratching our heads!

[yamkin]

Please don't forget that the GFS lagged behind ECM in Dec 2012. Both at the time were showing the beast from the east galore, only for ECM to back track, but GFS kept up the beast from the east until it also back tracked.

In other words, I'm expecting GFS to back track tomorrow and be on par with our friend beastly ECM

[TheToastPeople]

Holy crap look outside thats the thickest fog i have seen in a very long time! developed very quickly over the past 3 hours, A sign of the cooler air moving in perhaps?

[Heisenberg]

hi all, just got in...glad to see things are remaining interesting....i know net weather produce the snow charts using the gfs (which isnt on board) so where can i see the ecm versions? Ta all
