How is Eastern Europe into Russia cooling down compared to recent years? Has anyone taken a look? 

Quite similar to 2010 with Moscow having a mild October and even in November 2010 they only got properly cold in the last 3rd of November. So a similar pattern to this year. It will be interesting to see if Moscow get some extreme cold next 3 weeks. Charts are very similar to 2010 at present.

How highly does everyone rate Brian Gaze from TWO? He is so biased towards mild and always like to put a dampener on all things cold. The man frustrates me!

Down for 2c max on Tuesday!!!

 

We're down for zero so could be our first ice-day, though if the sun peaks through at all before the snow arrives on the day then it might be a bit touch and go!

Brain gaze, is renowned for fliping winter expectations/ forecasts, and does seem?! To have a slight bias regards mild outcomes. He must be respected,.However again he has been quite far off the mark regards winter predicts!! Previous.

Gonna feel very cold. We may get an ice day if the showers are heavy and persistent. In the past thats how we got many of our ice days.

 Not a nice post IMO

 

 just because Gaz1985 is not a fan of cold weather there is no need for this

Does anyone know what would happen if the PV splits and a part of it sits right over the UK? Posted Image

We get almost all of our ice days from freezing fog here, we're between two large bodies of water (Loch Ness and the Beauly Firth) and lie within the Great Glen.

 If you read his thoughts on TWO in the Buzz section it is anything but mild he is calling it exactly what the models are showing

 

 Just imagine if he was screaming heavy snow and severe cold,he would be slated just like Madden

As far as forecasters go I think he's alright. Like all forecasters he's not always correct but he's certainly had success with some of his seasonal forecasts over the years. I don't think he has a bias towards mild either. He just calls it as he sees be it mild or cold. Edited by Don

Only looked at about 7 or 8 so far and only out to 180 so bare with me but it looks like some cracking GEFS members, a few develop a really potent wave very similar to 8th Dec 1990.

What was the weather like that day??? Before my time...Posted Image

If we saw a chunk of the vortex, we would most likely see colder conditions and where deep cold uppers persist greater threat of convection- Wintry precipitation, I,E - Snow.

We actually had a piece of the PV over the top of us in the winter of 2009/10 and December 2010.

Which eventually lead to the coldest temperature I ever recorded here in SW Wales of -17c @10.30 in the morning on Xmas day.
