Hunt For Cold: Model Discussion - Heading Into Christmas


Paul
Message added by Paul

If you're hunting for cold potential in the model output, this thread is for you. But if you'd like to look more widely at the models, please head over to the general model discussion thread.

This is a model related thread, so a general, frequent theme of the model output is a given, but it will not be strictly enforced:

  • Some topic drift, humorous responses etc are fine
  • Posts likely to lead the thread off on an entirely off topic tangent are not ok. For example (but not solely limited to): Posts entirely or mainly about Met Office, BBC or media forecasts with little or no model context, and posts solely asking for a weather forecast in a specific location.
  • Posts which start with something like 'I know this is off topic but ...' are not ok.
  • Posts which break the forum guidelines are not ok (eg trolling, troll-hunting, weather guilt tripping, overly defensive/aggressive, abusive, disrespectful to others)

Lets pretend for a second that the GFS(P) Strat forecasts happened in reality. It'd be R.I.P Vortex until autumn 2019 and very likely somewhere in the Mid-Latitudes in the Northern Hemisphere would see a truly incredible, prolonged spell of very cold, historical weather..

Wonderful Strat profile on the Para    Total Split   one side over above Canada which should stop anything becoming west based   and a additional warming at the end of the run.    Middle of January could well be fun

Yes, the strato vortex looks like re-organising after a not great split. The last gfs run that showed a good split was the 12z yesterday.

Agreed..

PZ Para back to looking good though, wonder why such a difference?

I just want all models to show the major split from now on so that we can relax a bit. This on and off game is exhausting!

Lots of patience required. But things are ever so slowly falling into place for a quite noteworthy cold period right in the heart of mid-winter I feel.

Only IDO is allowed to post the GEFS 16 day mean

Yes a good chart MS.

We can see the movement of the vortex over to the Siberian side after day 10 and by day 15 the anomalies are just about where we want them.

Some cracking reversal speeds there. Does anyone know what the record negative wind speeds is for January?

What a lovely chart that is!!

Not sure why the Op is such an outlier from so early on - let’s hope that’s wrong!!

I am still plumping for the Aleutian low and High somewhere in our vicinity.

I really do feel the GEFS will sort this out after a while here is the mean and a couple of others from the panel

I am of the opinion that Greenland may be the preferred resting place.

Yes i agree, the op has not been on the same page for days and days, Blue says the EC det brings the split but its been delayed..

No more delays please EC,  i don't like delays..

(Better not travel to Dover April onwards then!!)..

Kirkcaldy Weather

Yes indeed.  I didn’t expect HLB this month Jan for that, but I also did not expect ‘the slug’ to affect Xmas period.  I love the 06z gfs(p) too

We can 'thank' the Alps for that.

Regarding the FV3, the 06z minimum was +1.9 m/s for 3/1 0z but was +7 m/s by the end as the split vortices retreated northwards slightly.

It was like a stronger split version of the 00z where the min was 7.1 m/s and 18.9 m/s at the end as the vortex reformed and slightly displaced from the pole and back to square one.
