TBH  i think i prefer GFS and GFSP to UKMO at 144, American models look to be quicker removing the high to our west than UKMO?

GFS

UKMO

Not much in it TBH ...not saying UKMO is bad, just not quite as good as GFSP in particular..

GFS ENS are actually better than the 06z, just need a good ECM now.

Just need some consistency, Trop effects now showing it’s hand imo it’s atm about the overall picture rather than small changes.

There’s some INSANE ensembles.

They look fantastic!   And the general pattern looks good enough anyway.

But.......but.... could someone post up the 3 worst looking ensembles?  Just to remind me that, as my optimism, what can go wrong often does go wrong, and show me what the difference could be in the weather we end up getting as opposed to me telling my kids what to be looking forward to!!!!

Honestly I struggled to find a really bad ones at 288, even this one on the face of it looks bas but could develop would just take longer. Put it this way given the GFS Bias to overdo things there not too many bad ensembles, that’s remarkable in itselfZ

Haha. Good to see that the downwelled trop response is now being picked up by deterministic and ensemble runs. And as @Nick F points out the MJO circling in the right direction. The week has started better than I even imagined as I was expecting this type of output - won’t be long before it is drawn into the ECM 10 day timeframe now.......

Its fabulous to hear you so upbeat C !!

Last week in Jan onwards looking very good as it stands..

I have just heard from a very reliable source - knows the cousin of a cleaner at NOAA- that they didn’t bother running the GFSp as it would have just been identical to the GFS...in real news as alluded to above it will be down to the government shut down and no one available to correct any starting issues

GFS finally picking up on the PNA ridge over western NAM linking with polar height rises working in tandem to force the trop polar vortex and thus jet south across the NAO region, aided by a strong STJ emerging from the USA too. Plenty of cold zonality and cold northerly  shots in the run there to bring some transitory northern snow towards end of next week, even the south in FI/Sat 19th.

The continued presence of the Euro trough all important - as it acts as a sink for all the deep cold arctic air to be pulled into and prevent the dreaded Azores ridge build east into Europe.

Also GFS and EC now showing consistency in retograding the MJO back through colder phases after leaving 8 and a spell of COD before re-emerging in 6 or 7 - this will encourage blocking over the Atlantic and Greenland eventually in tandem with the continued propagating down of easterly winds in the strat towards top layer of the troposphere, increasing threat for UK cold and snow.

Does Net Weather have a list of acronyms ? I am struggling with NAM, PNA, STJ, COD for example.

Do you think that there is enough of a strong downwelling and enough distance bewteen the lobes in order for a proper Greenland high to develop?  IF there is, this could be truly memorable as surely any forcing from the canadian lobe in the strat might actually result in the high toppling from Greenland to Scandi in the trop after the continent has been filled with blistering uppers.

Northern Annular Mode - same as Arctic Oscillation (AO)

Pacific-North American (teleconnection)

Sub-tropical Jet

Circle of Death - that middle bit of the MJO plot where it isn't influencing the weather much.

(I think! Difficult to keep track of them all!)

A quick Look at the ENS graph shows there’s little sign of mild as we head toward the last third of January.

Exactly, everyone should be happy with the that! I’m trying my best not to get to carried away, but it’s proving difficult 

looking forward to seeing the EC extended ens later tonight! Looking for consistency now
