Why? 

Very similar but UKMO probably colder air to our east.

UKMO ... probably 40% chance of going on to be very cold from the east, or 60% chance the Azores ridge /Altantic low will time unfavourably and keep the pattern too far north.

From previous experience, better to be too far north than south at this stage in the modelling...

Better shape to the high over Scandinavia with the lows running underneath from west to east .

A correction west before then would be useful

Yes this is what as been lacking, we still have time.

Perhaps a nod to February-March 1947?:yahoo:

Interesting, not far away from a major snow event for Scotland if the cold air collides with that heavy rain coming in from the Atlantic. Only 5 days away too!

We may not need a correction west- as Steve Murr has pointed out several times it's the second attempt post 144 hrs that looks to pull the deep cold pool westwards....you can see this on the 12z GFS...

144...all too far E as per UKMO

gfsnh-0-144.png?12

180...we're in the E'ly flow

gfsnh-0-180.png?12

Could be an interesting FI as that HP starts to extend N&W

Only in so far as quite few lows moved west-to-east in that cold spell...Don't get too carried away!:D

And no, DVR, I'm not 'that old'!:clap:

What an epic run this is. Colder than the 06z.

Very very near miss on GEM

Near miss in terms of a direct hit of the coldest uppers, but unlike GFS we get a decent snow event with attendant occluding front traversing the UK

So, out to T200 ish we have the same type scenario as the last few runs and we do get some cold feed from the East, I'm pretty sure a cold feed is going to happen later next week but the variations of how this happen are very different from run to run.  Not really worth looking to far beyond 144 at the minute other than to do some FI booming here and there, the key set up is between day 6 and 8, longevity depends on so many factors many of which are hard to hold onto on our island.

All in all we are no further on than at this point yesterday other than a fight between the East and West looks likely to start late next week - the East initially looks the one with bigger muscles!!! Big Freeze is by no way guaranteed.

This GFS run isn't an upgrade that is for sure, SE feed but not very cold, you watch though - it'll not be on the warmer side of the ensembles and we'll all be saying "follow the ensembles".

I will take that miss. The East could take a pounding over the next week or two.

And as usual, guess who never missed out......yup you got it, coldest air heading towards GREECE!

I find it worrying that some of the models are showing the cold moving northwestwards which can create a low of the north sea that can cut off the cold supply.

I agree, not just that but it's also not ideal to be having air mixed in from Greece & SEwards. We could do with seeing the HP sorting out it's 'saggy bottom' and lifting its tail a little more. Would also make it more effective at maintaining a cold feed of uppers.

We need a significant westward correction in the 120-144 range otherwise we could be forever chasing!
