Its the fact the BBC and media as a whole is describing things as warm nationwide which is not the case. I probably sound pedantic but they should be saying warm under the sunshine and light winds in southern parts only, rather than a headline saying 'warm sunshine', which is what the BBC have just stated as a summary for the weekend. anyone who may have just read this a summary statement without seeing the actual forecast is being very misled, the weekend for the northern half of the country will see no 'warm sunshine' indeed plagued by cloud drizzle and wind with temps average at best. A case of southern bias I think...

Apologies, I actually only took in the last para of your original post. Yes, you are quite right to get annoyed when the main BBC forecast is for warm weather generally when the reality is far from it.

It reached 17C here today - definitely warm, especially for the time of year.  Most days haven't been warm though - between 11 and 14C.

 

Western areas were plagued by low cloud and fog for most of the day.

Its still winter here and im in Cornwall. Infact last couple of days its been colder than winter, frosts and cold fog, no t-shirts and shorts, still wraped up in coats and scarfs, not looking at all summery in the forecast either, in fact it looks more wintry, with snow potential:-) Edited by John Badrick

The models are looking progressively more unsettled next week with stronger winds and spells of rain alternating with sunshine and showers, mild, locally warm at first but the second half of next week looks colder, even a risk of some surprise snowfalls, and not just on hills...and increasingly frosty nights later.

Yes Karl, the models are slowly firming up on the cool/cold unsettled spell from around the 19th, pushing cold Polar Maritime air S/E across the UK. Will be a shock to the system after the settled spell we are currently having, with snow showers even down to low levels, and a biting wind with -4/-8uppers covering most of the UK. This could be a colder period than we have had all winter !

John Hammond on BBC 1 after the regional news bulletins last night suggested 20c could be hit again on Sunday and looking at GFS thats entirely possible for some in the south

Does someone hate cornwall apparantly low going cause another 30 foot sea swell slam into lands end thursday according magic seaweed website.   Good news for our front is sea swell for north sea lessened its threat to storm surge.   We really apart from december 5th not been in the game this winter.

 

Are we going get final string lows swansong from 20th again.  Then the cold push back into artic 29th very warm from then on.

 

interesting rain accumulation

Haven't posted in here for a while, mainly as there's not been much happening wxwise. But all models agreeing on a big change from mid-week as the jet migrates south again - with gales and heavy rain returning across all areas with increasingly cold air digging in from the northwest by next w/e - bringing a threat of snow to the northern half of Britain later in the week - perhaps even to lower levels. GFS indicating max temps returning to single digits everywhere, so after possible 20C this Sunday in the southeast, my t-shirts and shorts will be replaced by thermals and woolies!

 

The more unsettled cool and cyclonic westerly regime with the southerly-tracking jet may become entrenched until the end of the month too looking at the extended ens.

Thats what I seeing in models too just at the point neap tides.   You wonder what coastal errosion could bring if all varables join.   Some models say small block 24th might happen this long way off.   Do you think it may continue into April like last run

Indeed quite a significant change on the cards for next week - the models have for a good week now suggested the current settled weather will be replaced by a cooler unsettled spell from the northwest - though the change has been put back a few days.

 

Shorts and t-shirts.. not quite yet ready for those here in Cumbria. Indeed single digit maxima yesterday and most likely today as well - its grey and murky outside with the threat of drizzle in the sky, not very springlike. Monday-Wednesday were superb though, its rare that we see three days with clear skies and wall to wall sunshine.

Correct nothing screaming Winter... But could well be colder than anything we have had all winter, so on that note a Wintry spell seems apt going by the latest model runs. Edited by Polar Maritime

Yes, as I pointed out a couple of days ago and others have suggested for a while now, looks like there'll be a breakdown of the HP and we'll have some cooler unsettled weather. Unlikely that a settled spell would last until October! :)

Was 09/10 severe in the States?Hes a bit ahead of himself if hes claiming to have forecast winter 14/15 correctly!?

For those who have followed Joe on Twitter and Accuweather before he went to Weatherbell Know what he's on about. Shame he doesn't do a video blog on Europe like he used to at Accuweather.

Please can we stick to the models? 'Big' Joe's past successes/failures, although interesting, are hardly model-related?

Away from the short term, no real sign of any significant cold outbreak or settled weather. Just a few ridges from the Azores high here and there which could bring drier conditions with the risk of frosts. Looks like a return to a more mobile westerly pattern with alternating mild/cool airmasses. Nothing spectacular either way.

Slightly nippier next weekend but nowt too wintry apart from the mountains of Caledonia - zilch snow elsewhere of course.
