East wind stretching all the way across the Atlantic towards Nova Scotia!

I could be wrong here, but doesn’t earth.nullschool just use the raw GFS data to produce wind vectors? I usually see it being used on various news channels whenever there are gale force winds, and they often mislead by presenting it as live data. The only live data I know of comes in from a network of monitoring stations.

looking at the extended modelling aaron, i'd say its definitely the case that the westerlies will struggle and we will see another sig amplification and possible HLB within a couple weeks. clearly that wont mean a repeat of what we're just seeing come to a close but chances of snowfall certainly remain better than average for march.

I noticed last week that the whole of the NH profile was in an easterly at 10hpa which I found incredible. Now there seems to be a recovery of the westerly flow ?

I'm looking at the GFS this afternoon and I'm thinking spring doesn't look to be turning up any time soon.

Spring will be turning up. The raw output for the south on the GFS is pretty average fair. A few ups and a few downs. 

Bound to be a few colder spells, it's still only march. As long as we don't see a repeat of 2013 I'll be happy.

Can one of our resident SSW folks say whether there was an SSW in Feb-March 1975? The change from ridiculously mild to cold was very abrupt...

Could this Spring be as cold as that one was?:unknw:

Maybe not, maybe yes.

It would truly elevate this cold spell to an all time great if we had a rinse and repeat! Plus it would really annoy SS! ?

Won't come close to verifying. The beast is dying.

I think the Beast has hijacked the 12z ENS mean from next friday onwards! :bomb:

Seriously though, there is a fair spread including plenty of ongoing cold ones. :)

Hmmm interesting GEFS! 

The outputs want to dig the jet sw and back ne so much depends on how far east that dig occurs , it’s possible you could end up with lows running ne along that jet into the UK engaging cold air on the northern flank of those lows.

But if the pattern is too far west it will be milder.

Because of the southerly ahead of the digging jet, so it could go either way at this stage .

I can’t remember who it was but I do remember someone telling Steve to give up the chase for that easterly as it will never happen! Lol! Well he didn’t and it did! Ha ha! I’m not so sure we are finished just yet tho! One last hurrah?

ps. not that was you Atlantic 252 at all! I was just following your post!

Nasty looking low popping up on ECM next Saturday mild in the south and cold in the north

The low is still around Sunday but the milder air moves away

It's been a great week, the models have never looked so good in recent days but now the beast is dying, it's been mortally wounded and the models generally show less cold air will be slowly spreading up across the uk from now onwards with scotland slowly becoming less cold too..such a pity it had to end.:nonono::).

It’s always rather sad when you see the snow disappearing. You sort of get used to it and it’s been a great week for most of the UK.

I think the snow cover could hang on for quite a while in the north and colder air is never far away.

Those in the south need not worry about the milder air the London ens shows next weekend ECM 12z op has gone off on one

If the ensembles are similar in pattern that suggests the op has the set up too far west.

So low track would correct further east.

Looking at the Ecm 12z ensemble mean, it's generally unsettled / cyclonic with a large trough over the uk with colder air clinging on across the far north but temperatures recovering closer to average in most areas, eventually even the far north comes under the influence of less cold / milder atlantic air as the minus 5 uppers depart northern scotland / northern isles ..the freeze is almost over!
