The Ecm 12z turns into a superb run for warmth / heat / high pressure / glorious early to mid may sunshine..just what those in the soggy cold southeast and indeed the majority elsewhere will love to see..awesome charts..please be right!:D?

Is pleasant temps i.e 20-21 or so too much to ask? Why does it always have to be ruined? And people wonder why I prefer rain...

18-23 or 24 for most. Maybe a touch higher in the capital.

I'm really optimistic about the coming summer, bring it on!

Ditto mike, I will be a very happy bunny if the Ecm 12z is right too, temperatures well into the 20's celsius at times across the southern half of the uk, above 80F on some days further south / southeast and even the less hot days into the low 20's c...Bank!:D

Perfect enough for me.

We will possibly be nudging over 80f again if some of these verify. 850s of 11-13c in early May with strong sunshine will see the temps rocket. All very dependent on cloud amounts. I wonder if someone will claim it won’t get past 23c like last time when it got to 29c :D

ECM ensembles out and a strong signal supportive of the warm settled weather.  T168:

And at T240 still looking good for a mean chart this far out:

EDM1-240.GIF?30-0

All good as far as I can see!

Looking at the ECM chart for Tuesday, I think anywhere from the Lake District south could do a bit better than that. With the uppers at 10C+ and a favourable wind direction, you can often add 15C to that in strong May sushine. In any case I would bite anyone's hand off if they offered 23C right now after the week just gone!

Absolutely! 11c and a strong north wind does not do it for me!

In the words of Chris Fawkes tonight "High pressure could stick around for quite some time"

It doesn't at this stage look like it will be a 2 day, blink and you'll miss it affair looking at some of the output tonight 

UKMO extended ?

Well, this evening's runs are enough to get one thinking back to how much the last spell of 'warm drift' from the continent was underestimated in terms of maximums.

I'd not be surprised to see the mid-20s widely across the southwest region by Sunday if tonight's ECM was very near the mark. GFS threatens a little too much cloud but it's a close run thing.

A bit of MJO phase 8-2 activity in the models but phase 8 is only a vague fit for the trend this Friday onward, with the best fit being the phase we don't look to reach until a fortnight's time anyway. So it seems this is not much of a factor at the moment... unless, that is, there is a key component of the MJO that's actually advancing ahead of the what the diagrams suggest, which can be the case sometimes.

The ECM is outrageously good for summery conditions. If that comes off it will be a May in the history books:)

With a couple of days in the mid or high 20s?

Well the 'Heatwave' started off with low 20s before steadily upgrading closer to the event cloud dependant the mid to upper 20s could certainly be hit

May 2012 had 10 days in a row with temps at or above 25c, but it wasn't a great month. Certainly not one for the history books.

May 2016 was a much better month even though it never really got hot. It was always mild or warm and had normal amounts of sun, unlike 2012 which was total dross for 3 weeks, with most of the sun for the month coming in a 10 day spell.

I was thinking of pressure anomalies, sunshine anomalies and not just CET although that could be interesting if this pattern kept up for long enough eg ECM

I would suffer every year if I lived there. May 2016 had 1 day above 25c and 9 above 20c in London, which is about average for those thresholds. May 2012 had 10 days above 20c, of which 8 were above 25c and 3 above 27c, yet 2016 was the better month.
