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)

This screams potential to me, linking heights over the Arctic.

Shortwave calamity followed by an attempt to salvage later on sums up the ECM so far .

I wouldn’t trust any model until that shortwave energy in the Atlantic is sorted out.

The chopping and changing between runs makes anything past day 5 subject to big changes .

And if the strat profile on the GFS is right, destination scandi for the high and very cold to become severely cold by months end.

The building blocks are starting to come together at last. It's been a slow process but you just get a feeling the turn in year has coincided with something special brewing!

Odds on now that Jan 19 will deliver a significant cold spell

Absolutely Nick, however, given everything that's going on high above us, this next few weeks may be one of those rare periods where all roads eventually lead to a cold/very cold outcome!?
