ireland Ireland Regional Discussion - Autumn 2013

[smithyweather]

Ok so now I am VERY confused. Looking on that model thread It looks like the ecm and ukmo are back on board but then we have negative people saying oh only a two day spell and then others saying. High pressure building in but still cold!

Wtf someone should actually tell them to be consistent with what its showing because its very hard to work out reality.

[smithyweather]

Don't know what them ones are going on about. The latest gfs has me over -10c uppers from tbursday thru to saturday. Although it does only last two days which is pretty super dupere tbb.

Remember frosty joe, 95% of posters are not worth reading in the MT, just welcome the cold snap/spell/upgrade/downgrade if it comes.

 

Anyway lets save the snow and cold for Christmas - much better then

[smithyweather]

Tbh its coming up to December now...

06z GFS looking pretty good after a tasty ECM. The trend in clearly there now, which is the important thing when looking for cold spells at 5+ days away.

[smithyweather]

Someone should open a NORTHERN uk model output forum because there ain't no scots or anything of the sort in that thread so it isn't giving a true picture. Even looking at the timeframe they are talking about the cold coming in 204 hours when it actually reaches me in 162 hours.

[smithyweather]

Cold spell runs from 6th december onwards the whole way to the end of the run iwth no higher than -7c uppers! Woop woop

No point getting too excited for something that far away, it will have changed on the next run.

[ronan]

Don't be getting your hopes up to much!! There will be downgrades and upgrades again! Gonna be a long week!

[smithyweather]

Ugh you never know. But i bet the next run has us in a southerly. Eugh

[sundog]

The weather has been in very boring mode of late, i really hope the good charts showing up on the models come to fruition to liven things up. Too early to tell but it does look like some sort of northerly outbreak will occer later next week,it might not amount to much and be nothing more then a glancing blow for us with the main cold heading into europe but im hopefull things will work in our favour.

 

 

In early Dec 1990 we had a potent cold snap which lasted for a few days.

I concur sundog, this weather is very boring.

I concur sundog, this weather is very boring.

Yes indeed nothing worse then the cloudy HP that we have had to endure of late with dull skies and little temp variation ,i love clear HP especially at this time of yr giving frosty weather but a cloudy one is as boring as it can get.

[be cause]

Once again a great day to be working outside 

[skywatcher]

Brrrrr. Cold sharp showers here in Belfast. Feels very wintery and totally different from the last few days.

[smithyweather]

SNAPPY SNAP SNAP!

Definitely a good looking run and a bit of an upgrade from this mornings runs! Loads more runs needed but and plenty of time for things to go T I T S up but this time next week we could be having our first proper snow fall of the the winter!

[smithyweather]

Yes it will actually lie this time not like last weeks major fail. Ewgh, never again.

Hopefully we get a big clutter of showers and the snow gets to a decent depth.

Would like to see all get a bit of a covering even West Cork  Last week was not a major fail for me as we had lying snow here, hipefully it works out for you this time FJ

[ronan]

I quietly have a real good feeling about next week so here's hoping for more upgrades!

Yea and your like 200m... Most folk don't even live above 50m...

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

Indeed Ronan have a good feel about this too - reading the Scottish forum and it looks interesting.

 

True FJ at least you don't get blown to bits by constant wind like I do here even on a fl i pping summers day

Yes the scottish forum is good. Think they are more realistic and tbh our weather is basically the same as theirs except up in shetlands and north of scotland.

Think if this continues we would get a good covering of snow. But its a full week away, we need to have the cold spell showing up everyday.

[gary1365]

things are looking up 

 

i constantly get blasted by wind here too unfortunately it blows straight in the front door lol. 

[bobbarley]

Smithy we might have as wet weather as Scotland but definitely not as cold! They definitely have more days of lying snow than here further south and west!
