How are we getting spoilt??...the models have admittedly shown promise....and continue to do so....however ...anything worthy of note has failed to verify....and no doubt will always be 7 to 10 days 'away'....still, makes good viewing, albeit frustrating and disappointing!!...keep up the good work peeps ..lovin' this site !!!

Compared to the dreary muck the last few winters, these charts are indeed 'spoiling' us. :drunk-emoji:

 The potential northerly advertised by week 2 GS and EC ops, just a case of wait and see on that one as its not fitting any GWO / tropical influence and must entirely by largely atmosphere driven- which is notoriously difficult to get a handle on.

What do you mean by atmosphere driven GP?, do you mean Stratosphere?, I would have thought everything was driven by the atmosphere?

An example of how any scatter in upper air temperature probably won't affect surface level temperatures next week

graphe3_1000_306_141___Londres.gif  graphe6_1000_306_141___Londres.gif

Looks like a good 10 days before a reasonable chance of a warm up in London

Takes a bit longer for northern areas to go cold but the same end result - this is near Glasgow

I expect he means it doesn't fit the analogues for the teleconnections

Having just seen the GFS 06hrs run I'm wondering whether we could avoid any Atlantic guff if the negative NAO sets up so far west that we get an amplified trough in the Atlantic and ridge to the east/ne.

The models seem consistent with the main blocking being towards Canada and so a halfway house could leave us in a less palatable set up.

Can ask a question where do you see spell of zonal weather because going what I can see within the models no zonal for next two weeks or so or am I missing something.

the extended ens are all trending (consistently) to high euro height anomaly and low atlantic. there is margin for error and we don't see the eps clusters but ian tweeted yesterday evening in the direction of sw flow so that backs it up

I'm guessing, but I think that the analogues merely predispose certain types of overall hemispheric patterns? But, as with all cases of predisposition there are other factors, 'contraindications' that suggest a million and one other possibilities? For want of a better analogy, not everyone who's predisposed to contracting lung cancer does so...:cc_confused:

Just having a look through some archives, as you do ;)

Anyone saying the GFS 06Z is a waste of time needs to check these D12 and D16 charts from New Year's Day out:

gfs-0-276.png?6  gfs-0-384.png?6

gfs-2-264.png?6 

and then

gfs-0-384.png?6

Now that's awesome!

good point MWB - what about the week the week that followed when it didn't show the MLB !

however, I agree that no particular gfs op run should be given any more credence than another

So looking at the below chart am I right in thinking the Darker purples mean better agreement whilst the lighter colors south of Iceland mean uncertainty?

Yes and the bigger spread below Iceland is the low i think we are pretty much nailed on what to expect out to 144hr, the spread for the low will be how intense it will be thats the reason for the spread in that area.

It seems modeling is settling for a UK high extending east by day 4 rather than one a little further north that was hoped giving us a cold easterly.

ECM1-96.GIF?13-12gfs-0-96.png?6

The ridging does bring us a bit of a warm up with some rain on Sun/Mon before we cool off again and it dries out.

The 00z ensemble graph for London showing the milder spell before the continental cold seeps back in around day 4.Looking quite dry for next week again after the weekend rain.

ensemble-tt6-london.gifensemble-rrrcum-london.gif

suspect temperatures will be a little higher further north west as we are now relying on surface cooling rather than any easterly with the block now looking to be over the south and and across the continent around 50N.This leaves the far north west corner open to those south westerlies.

Week 2 does look different in so much that we lose our high as heights re-appear much further west over Canada leaving the Uk open to some influence from the Atlantic.Looking at the gef clusters from the 00z and 06z runs the transition seems underway by day 12 as the heights over the continent sink as an Atlantic trough shows it's hand out west.

gefs 06zmean anomalies

gensnh-21-5-312.png

Currently a large majority go for this trend with just a small cluster preferring a Scandi trough dropping down to our east with some heights to our nw giving the uk another northerly.The latter signal would grow i suspect if we could achieve further amplification in week 2 than currently modeled.

Well going by that tweet we should now by 72hrs on ukmo if that wave develops.

We will know soon enough as it must show in its 12z.

The above does not really fir the anomaly charts I use? They have been quite good over the past few weeks, for the most part anyway, predicting the cold spell, the movement of the ridge, briefly, east of the UK and now their suggestion of upper ridging expected to be NW/WNW of the UK. Be interesting to see if this does occur in the next 6-10 days?

 Days 12-16 John so probably won't be showing strongly on the 8/14 mean as yet

Is anyone else's UKMO stuck on Oz 96? It's been like that all day.

It's a poor UKMO 120 & 144 chart, with the HP not very far North and very much centered over UK :-(

Ok thanks, don't know what's up with my charts then, refreshed the cache and it's still stuck :cc_confused:

As maligned as this plot is these days, it can still be used to make a quick point; the mean MJO signal has been observed further toward the W Pacific than the models had it in yesterday's runs, though ECM came pretty close. So I'd not be surprised to see something close to the circle edges through 6-7-8 on the plot, with this representing enough of a W-C Pacific component to the forcing from Pacific MJO/Kelvin activity (as seen in the projections in the right-hand image) to help get an upper ridge in place to our NW prior to the attempted setting up of a west-based negative NAO pattern. I concur that we could see an interesting battleground for a time followed by wild swings one way then the other in temperature in the final week or so and into February.
