Some ECM weekly updates, still looking very good mid December...

Was that the same ECM which has progged cold at the end of the rainbow for the last few weeks? Don't mind me I'm in a rather snippy mood, I'll be back to my normal happy self in the morning.

The gfs ops are absolutely all over the place to be quite frank. For the sake of my sanity I am going to ditch the gfs for the foreseeable and just concentrate on ecm. An abysmal start to the season for the gfs. Reminds me of the bad old days from 10 years plus ago.

Aren't you sticking around for the deep FI fantasy Northerly? :ball-santa-emoji:

Well if the ECM and GFS 18z is anywhere near the mark the Met Office's talk of wet and windy weather for the second half of next week looks way off.

Settled, dry and cold looks the order of the day for the foreseeable.....until all the models flip back to a GFS 6z type solution in the morning!  :cold:

Maybe they ain't too far off...

Yes Nick agree, but either way its still a well respected model and the EC weeklies are probably one of the most used model for longer range forecasting. But yes its performance still isn't perfect but lets be honest, which model is at the moment? Just another model that we can add to the discussion i suppose. Either way, it was last weeks run!!

A strong and zonal jet across the far North Atlantic between New Foundland and UK/EIRE through next week and beyond into following weekend on the 18z kind of scuppering chances to get enough amplification to pull proper cold arctic air south across the UK.

Hopefully Black Friday model output will offer some better festive promotions that coldies can't refuse to snap up!

perhaps a white Tuesday 6th Dec for some up north on 18z, finally it gets a token northerly in as the flow amplifies upstream

Excellent run to run consistency from GFS, I think we can confidently predict Decembers weather now.

The GFS now desperately trying to redeem itself well into FI. Its trend is somewhat similar to the ECM with troughing digging far south into the Atlantic.

BA was talking earlier about the building aleutians ridge in the ENS, and how this could be one of the things that is causing so much uncertainty in the models.

This EC ENS graph really shows the big change over the aleutians in the next two weeks or so!

Pretty strong negative anomaly back at start/mid of november to a strong positive anomaly by first week December. Big changes in the Pacific next week.

Lovely recovery deep into extra time

That ties in with the last EC46, lets hope this one keeps the same thing, then you could say we have x model support of sorts!!!!!    really straw clutching now.

The problem is, FI on the GFS at the moment is around 18hrs

The strat charts are really crap at the end of the runs lately as well, this is really turning into a nightmare.

Let's see what tomorrow brings. For me the ECM hasn't worsened it has edged a tad more workable and the GFS has moved away from a potential arctic lock in.  Far from resolved and I think we'll see more jostling around but with further hints of 'on cold side of average' weather to be had.  

As mentioned earlier timing is to be erred but I'm still not concerned about the earlier ECM but equally not anticipating 2010

Good night for now....see ya in the morning.

 

Just quickly browsed the NetW LRF........take note of Scandi HP thoughts in Jan....;)....I did
