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)

That sounds like Fergie-talk to me.

Edit - oops just catching up and seen the forum detectives had already worked that out!

no, no, it was all me....really.....I did a phd in meteorology on the side when I did my school work experience and YTS at bracknell......they paid me an extortionate amount of money (£1.20 hour IIRC) and I repay them by providing them with all the latest & future tech weather forecasting........damn, I'm good

My hunch is we are going to have a near miss winter with the coldest air continuing to plague Central and Southern Europe, that’s my prediction,,,keep me in mind with my comment.

That sounds like a normal uk winter. Just looking at the ecm 120 you can see the PV almost destroyed hardly any of it left over Greenland,

And then the 144 came out and went a bit flat

If cross polar flow is to be the outcome, this direction looks good!

I’ll be digging out the bobble hat and shovel in readiness

as I have said before I am not overly knowledgeable when it comes to the MJO but here are some other charts 

Phase 7 January

Phase 8 January 

JanENMJOphase8all500mb.thumb.gif.09d512c698996ff08f9b0319655dc8cc.gifJanuaryPhase8All500mb.thumb.gif.8a2691d575dd8e716985a1c48ad254ea.gif http://docs.wixstatic.com/ugd/31d9e0_3c062d439cb841d2eea3ea174256642b.pdf and again (nada, weak or no el nino / la nina signal)

nada_8_gen_mid.thumb.png.5eebf739d103e099d771e2f6be879035.png majority of these look pretty good for increasing our chances of blocked and colder

 

 

 

It cannot be argued that we are in a weak El Niño rather than neutral enso. 

Whether other factors skew the analogue repsonse is another matter .....

Amazing differences at day 7 between the ECM and GFS.

Let the next model drama begin! 

Once again handling of shortwave energy vastly different , the ECM holds some of that back . The GFS piles the whole lot east as it’s flatter upstream .

Ec polar field looks different day 7 to previous run

re gfs ...... hopefully the para will improve its reputation ......I take it far more seriously than i used to but it’s vital to have context when viewing any model output

There were a few GEFS that brought the PM air in quicker than the op..

Thats no problem-

Im just a bit more critical & non PC than Ian ??..

Anyway im off out -

Eyes down for the ECM

last 2 days 192 > 168 have reduced the zonal flow & been more amplified  will 144 follow 'ukmo' suit...

I’m just chilling at home watching BBC2 (catch me if you can) sounds very similar to what the UKMO is saying to the GFS

Flattened again but much like the GFS looks primed for day 10+

The best trend i'm seeing is the Azores high staying away from the UK!
