Let' be honest, the bitterly cold air is pretty much nailed on next week. Small variations thou in the runs seems to move the emphasis of snow distribution from the south east tot more northern areas...might not go down to well bet that' the way I see it as an overall picture. Good to see a strong scandi high forecast for the following week to keep the cold locked in and as said above further snow moving in from the north east.

Let's be honest, the bitterly cold air is pretty much nailed on next week. Small variations thou in the runs show that trying to workout the best place for snow is pointless at this time I would suggest.

We have what I call the "dreaded" one cluster after D11 - which I always translate as "we don't have a clue!"

I was very nervous that the fastest growing eps cluster from yesterday was going to spoil my breakfast and it most certainly has.

ECM at 168hrs is cold and frosty.

Not what I expected with the bitter uppers not really getting across Ireland...starting to look a lot drier at this time frame anyway 

At 192hrs the cold is getting very diluted....A world away from the uppers we saw 2 days ago

Another variation of what could happen in 7 days time

Absolutely true Marcus - very cold but sadly most on here aren’t looking for just the cold. We still have the shortwave dropping southwest next Tuesday but that’s a long way out of a small feature (though all the models now pick it up)

as a few have been cautioning, only the cold has been guaranteed for next week, nothing else

Too right, while we arn't seeing the -15-16 850's it's still showing a notable cold spell for this time of year.

Think the ECM is worse not as cold with a much larger mild sector from the north.

 

I'm not that worried really, D8 is a lifetime away and will differ again this evening

Would hardly call it a mild sector!!

I bet all those who were berating Liam Dutton yesterday are regretting their comments yesterday. Looks like he could be correct. 

Just thinking the same regarding the BBC...dry and cold....ecm has a north westerly flow by the end of next week....nothing could have been more unlikely this time yesterday?!

Developing low moving south has a mild sector the air is around -5 but it is there.

By day 10 the cold should be pulled in again for the NE.

A variation on the position of the high which has yet to be resolved

ECM is a short term disappointment but looks good again at 216, however two things.  The evolution between 144 and 168 doesn't look right to me, the cold is suddenly and dramatically put in reverse.  Secondly, the overnight Met update does correlate with what the UKMO is showing (which is outstanding). 

Remember toys in prams, think of the mods, and this isn't nailed yet.

For a quick comparisons that looks a bit January 2010 to me. Might not be as cold duse to the time of year.

The north westerly is just a temporary flow as well.

It was there if you wanted to see it jimmy - the ec op is a more extreme version but it’s out of the far less convective  snowy cluster. This op gives us around 36 hours of convective potential but heights are higher as is slp so it’s simply not good enough for widespread snowcover if you compare with the previous runs. Working on the basis that we have seen two good ec ops followed by one meh run, we’ll be back in the game come tonight on this model. However, the ukmo day 6 is headed in a similar direction (though the upper ridge slightly better aligned). More runs needed and ed’s salt deposit losing some of its value! 

all based on ec output I should add !

as for the ecm following the gfs @frosty ground...... really? you  think they are alike?

Looks like we’re getting to a decent agreement on how and when the coldest conditions reach us. Everything beyond that is up in the air, with the models in disagreement, which is exactly what you’d expect. Nothing is looking remotely mild anyway. Won’t stop some from overreacting to any charts that aren’t stellar for cold and snow, but hey ho!

Why are we looking so far ahead? Some of the south and across the east and infact west have woken up to frost, looks cold now from today with an easterly wind setting up further south, looking past Sunday currently is pointless. 

With such variety in the output this morning it goes to show how useless we are at trying to forcast anything past day 3.
