With the PV cranking up we can right of January for a sustained cold spell too.

An early SSW in February is our last hope.

Do you enjoy trying to wind people up with such nonsense?

P.S. "right off?"

This is the moan thread right? or is that write?

Went for a walk on Hampshire coast, people queuing for ice creams at kiosk . A glorious day. This is the setup we needed in June and July just gone. Dare I dream of a extended spring as we move into January!

You know things aren't looking good when it's a Sunday in December and there isn't a single comment in the model thread about the 12Z GFS which has rolled out to 150 hours now...

Beats me how anyone can write off two months ahead, when the pro's struggle to get it right from one week to the next

[cyclonic happiness]

All in favour of renaming 'Winter' as 'Failter', like this post!!

Because the forecast is now for a stronger polar vortex and when that kicks in, it's easy to forecast.

Despite the multi billions that have been spent on super computers we are still no nearer to being able to accurately forecast cold to these islands.

There is a strong whiff of cordite in the air these days.

Writes off expert forecasts and makes own forecast two months ahead. Apply the meto, you're clearly a meteorological genius.

I DO tend to ignore IDO, always playing down cold

[igloo]

when you see +12 uppers in this evenings ECM run you no when things have changed big time if only we could get those sorts of uppers in july and not on the shortest days of the year the days of scandi hp and greenland hp are all gone bar from the few die hard deniers

[JOPRO]

All I can say is when we get the next cold spell hit then I intend to ramp the f**k out of it after these last coulple of winters! Any other coldies feel like me? It will come just a matter of when not if.

Count me in, and y'all know my views! If I start ramping cold, get ready for ice age LOL!

[biggreyface]

850s of +10 for Scotland on the shortest day I'm pretty sure it was only +8 on the longest day .I was always a bit sceptical about man made climate change now I am starting to think that it's true and we have definitely broke the planet.

Only problem with my comment is the when part! Could be next week,month,2 months next winter but it will come! Just feels like we are paying for the good run of cold winters we had in 08/09 09/10 10/11 and 12/13. Think we would rather have had them rationed out every couple of years if we knew the current snow drought we are stuck in was coming. I did manage a day or so of lying snow last winter which on the face of it was a major snow event in the context of that winter!
