I didn’t think it was possible but charts are getting worse! Hopefully they all hit the drink over Xmas.

The Meto run only goes to Boxing Day, i wouldn't be expecting anything until early January and even that would be just be signs of a block moving North. Lets see what tonight's GFS and ECM bring.

Yes. Decent GFS 12z. Very cold Easterly in by the start of the month then signs of a Scandi high retrogression to Greenland.

Cheers MS! Hope it doesn’t disappear like the Xmas charts! But small steps I guess

Good chart didn’t last to long MS. Ah well. The hunt for the needle in the haystack continues.

Not really. There was hope of quick trop response which might have brought in the cold early in the New Year, unfortunately it does look more likely that we'll need to wait until mid January.

Fog hasn't lifted one bit and has stuck around all day. 

[Neiller22]

will be freezing fog after midnight

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

Horrible murky day today, can't stand foggy weather 

[ronan]

Happy Christmas to you all. The model output at the minute is dire. Just doesn't look as if we are gonna get anything cold and snowy any time soon. I'll be in Iceland in 2 weeks time and there is zero snow there at the minute. It's depressing. Lol 

[ForeverPomeroysnow]

At least there was a frost this morning to leave it a wee bit festive, anyway happy Christmas folks, have a good one

[bobbarley]

Yes Merry Christmas to all my weather/snow geek friends

[sundog]

Merry Xmas to all and let's hope for some winter weather at some point next month. 

[parrotingfantasist]

Happy Christmas to all on here at least its a dry one

Happy Christmas to all let the hunt continue as we head into the new year and hopefully with some snowy scenes.

[StormyWeather28]

I had a lot more air frosts in September and October than November and December. Also woke up to laying and falling snow on the morning of the last Saturday in October. November and December have been a joke. Zero interesting weather, any "storms" were just standard bad days. Nothing exceptional. 

No snow, no cold, no sun, no storms just the most boring mild cloudy high eating up valuable time from the heart of winter. Jesus this high is getting more irritating than listening to another brexit discussion. 

[mountain shadow]

Nothing of any interest in the model output with the next ten days basically cloudy with temps of 8 degrees.

 

[parrotingfantasist]

Boring muck and very mild out there. Lets hope something changes and soon.

[Neiller22]

horrific charts. the worst iv seen for many a year and dont look like improving. Expect meto outlook to change to poss end of january cold. By then nights much longer and time running out. SSW my A*SE ! waste if time

[mountain shadow]

Lovely spring like today, Winter seems a long way away.

[ronan]

It's certainly does MS. Boring weather and the models just seem to be stuck at the minute. Nothing remotely interesting in the output!!
