UKMO 144 whhile not perfect looks much more appealing to my eyes-

The ridge towards scandy is further north and Low pressure is much more domianant across South/South East Europe - :)

Actually the ukmo 12z is a little less progressive than the Gem @T+144 hours, I think there is a lot of uncertainty looking through next week, certainly a cold start anyway!:)

The coldest air over the UK on GEM is Sunday and Monday

On Wednesday milder air tries to move in from the west but it doesn't quite manage it on it's first go but it has another try by the Friday

Looking at the models the colder winds should be easing by Tuesday

A more familiar sort of set-up with low pressure to the north and higher pressure from the south edging closer

Whether this would be a long-term change or shorted lived remains to be seen a lot of weather to get through before this yet

Hi Knocks I have posted a few examples previously as well as described what I believe to be the mechanism which actually begins before any potential block/trough disruption scenario and we already have what I would describe as a slider modeled at 24h also Blue has described the potential second salider scenario.

The mechanism is basically the cold dense air programmed to be over the continent being hard to shift as the relatively warm Atlantic air attempts to break through causing the troughs disrupt against the cold dense air mass (acting much like a blocking high similar to how we see the frigid landmass of Greenland repel Atlantic and disrupt Atlantic lows) and cause them to "slide" down the Eastern flank of the Atlantic ridge which in turn would help reinforce heights over Scandinavia and potentially form a Sacandinavian high.

It is a very typical battleground scenario we often see in the Winter months but fairly rare beginning of Novemeber I would imagine as there is rarely the depth of entrenched cold required across the vcontinent this time of year.

In typical years the atlantic usually wins out but occasionally we get enough energy disrupting and going SE instead of NE allowing for cold blocking patterns to form.

Hope that helps but I am open to different interperetations or corrections on terminology.

I'm sure we could discuss the meteorological aspects of this for quite some time but it's really suffice to know what people mean in the context of the thread. :) So in this context the upper low on Friday is a slider and phases in with the cold air of the main upper trough. By the way have you noticed this evening's GFS is being quite wicked and shifting warmer air eastwards from the middle of next week.

Looking at some of the GEFS, I suspect there will be a fair few different colder options, ranging from the Scandi high to another Greenland effort.  Alas, not as cold as it looked!

Agreed, there are some GEFS 12z perturbations which show the scandi ridge still influencing the uk next midweek (P4 for example) and holding the atlantic at bay with cold air still in situ, it's an uncertain period and there is no guarantee that milder air will make significant inroads at all next week, at least the first half looks chilly, it could continue on the cold side away from the far west / northwest.

Looking at the GFS ens the Op is on the cold side when compared to the mean from the 8th to 12th beyond this some days it's warmer than the mean and others its colder

A recovery in temps during next week is certainly possible but how high who knows maybe peaking around 12c in the south by late next week

Just a quick mention about tonight,  The Gfs 12z shows a slight air frost and there is even a risk of a few freezing fog patches forming across parts of the Midlands and south which takes us into a crisp bright morning, especially further south.

Looking at the Reyjavic pressure ens they peak at 1030mb this weekend followed by quite a sharp drop by mid-week by mid-month pressure steadies out around 1010mb ideally we want high-pressure showing for them like it will be over the coming days giving us some cooler / colder air

prmslReyjavic.png

*Note* The above is still the 06z ens

As this chart for the 9th shows with high pressure slowly building over the UK whilst for Reyjavic pressure gets down to around 990mb

The Ecm 12z is looking increasingly cold from the north this weekend as we get our first taste of Arctic air and some quite low thicknesses by sunday and the cold weather continues through the first half of next week, especially across England and Wales so there would be widespread frosts and chilly days with a peppering of coastal showers, some wintry across the n & e before a large ridge of high pressure to the w / nw  then slowly topples SE across the uk, still with frosty nights..certainly different to the 00z..colder and more blocked away from the far NW.

ECM ends on a settled note with temps still on the low side especially where any fog lingers

the high pressure laying down to our south west at 168hrs, is this not considered a bartlett high? i struggle to see this moving any time fast especially with the jet riding over the top and a weak polar vortex. Would i be right in saying that we can either hope for an easterly high to push it west/a north easterly to slide against it/it to link up with a long draw scandi high?

Just your normal, run of the mill, Azores high. The image below is a Bartlett.
