The Hunt for Cold continues 02/01/19

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)

Close but no cigar on the GFS. UKMO pretty woeful. ICON excellent.

But why is the ukmo woeful. Looks OK for the UK at 144h to me.

No joy from either the ECM or GFS. UKMO doesn't go out far enough but overall not bad agreement between the three. Even in lala land ECM and GFS pretty close. CFS shows some cold in feb though so junk the rest of the models they are all wrong.

But on the positive side, this mornings ecm still isn't out. Maybe it'll be on to something. With the strat splitting as we speak the data being input into the models is likely causing wild swings in output.

Note again based on the feedback of the GFS performance the 'overprojection East' is now correcting NW in the mean at 144

18z first 00z second

Indicates a VERY good suite.

The GEFS are really having a good go at setting up an easterly/ NE’LY at day 8, interesting.

Much bigger uncertainty (it starts earlier in the run but I was too late to catch it)

The FV3 is going for a different sort of Easterly to last run, it looks like.

Lovely chart that. Vortex spilling all over like runny egg yolk.

Why no comments on the ECM - it’s a good one  144-168-192 below

I don't think it has updated yet? Certainly not on Net-Extra anyway.

I am seeing the ECM updating on meteociel, not outstanding but gets some cold air to southern England days 6-8, high is pushed back some distance southwest by day 6. Not as juicy as those GFS-P maps though.

Depends how those 2 lows pan out around Greenland, and the shot of WAA between them. It’s all for fun really as way out in LA LA Land.

I think this will be close to what occurs. First ridge will be another failed Easterly attempt but better chance with the second wave/ridge in 10-14 days time.

Morning all in the UK. Not sure if this chart from ICON at 180t comes to fruition but all cold lovers would aspire this to be the case. Everything perfect, high orientation right to the North of British Isles, Polar vortex over White Sea, Mid Atlantic trough digging SE and 300mb jet looping well north in almost omega formation and most importantly lower heights established over Europe.  Its just one scenario but looks the best of this mornings models. Maybe ECM to follow with a different colder route<

When viewing gfs i was ready to throw in the towel, however once again ICON and ECM looking pretty good as far as trends go...ECM day 10, sub -10 uppers primed to flood south behind the trough passing thru. Core of vortex to the north east slowly edging south and an Atlantic ridge, with a tiny tweak westwards would be perfect..

If you ask me it’s slowly gathering momentum for a good cold spell, there seems to be more and more good charts appearing now as opposed to poo charts so I’d say that’s definitely a step in the right direction. You never no if we wait a few more days we may actually have a better idea for next week.
