maybe the very fact that today's 0z suite was for the first time in a while not a downgrade is a signal in and of itself that we are headed for the freezer.

 

 

 

If we're not heading into the freezer it's certainly a very cold fridge!..:oldgrin:..overall great output today in the hunt for cold..and snow!:cold-emoji:❄️

another thing to watch out for during colder spells - sudden short term potential - could be some interest for my fellow Scottish members and some other Northern areas (possibly spreading further south across UK) late weds / Thursday

looks like a front associated with the first slider low potential about to try and come in at 102h with some colder air still about

GFS nothing like the UKMO

Similarities with ECM but if I had to be picky would rather see heights developing someway further north as the slider goes south south east...

Gfs no slider and completely rubbish at 120 hours with a low centre of the uk!!am pretty sure that ukmo 120 hour chart has that low further east aswell compared to the 144 hour one yesterday!!could be mistakened though!!gfs could trump the other 2 this time round or a middle ground very least!!

GFS 12z actually has slightly less of a ridge at the key point than the 06z... laughable (we sincerely hope!).

Even GEM's managing to look more sensible now (00z left 12z right);

gem-0-126.png?00 gem-0-120.png?12 

A big shift there, of the sort we were looking for GFS to make.

Interesting to see UKMO upping the blocking-out even further. Developments in the lower stratosphere are increasingly supportive of this (and more quickly so than I was expecting yesterday evening!) but GFS seems to have missed the memo!

Ah well okay, maybe that's a bit harsh of me - GFS has the memo but reckons on a slightly slower propagation down of the anomalies;

gfs-0-132.png?6 gfs-0-126.png?12

Again 06z left and 12z right - more rise of heights N of the UK, just about within the downwell region.

 

gem-0-144.png?00 gem-0-138.png?12

GEM's also upped the heights a little but it's the increased trough disruption that's most notable there.

The trend is our friend. Hopefully the ECM 12z concurs!

Yes the so called slider LP is further south at 138h... giving snowfall across the Midlands ?

GEM the best run 10/10-

UKMO 9/10

GFS poor 5/10

Think they are all leading to cold at 144t but a different route from all these 3 models.  UKMO slightly warmer 850mb temps than the earlier run at 144t but the surface flow will be cold.  Now all eyes down to see where ECM ends up in the cold range. Looking at the fax charts could be cold enough for some snow showers late Wednesday.early Thursday transferring west to east. 528 dam well into Ireland.

 alsoYep - good run from UKMO strengthening the slide scenario.

However I hope members aren't going to get too hung up on snow chances Thursday into Friday. I don't see it - cold rain to start for low lying areas. But by the weekend night time temperatures will fall, cold air will begin to creep in from the east and the second slider (if ECM maintains its consistency) in the early part of next week is the one that may deliver.

ECM tonight will be interesting...GFS at the moment still seems keen on pushing a wedge of heights up towards Scandy (at least as of 156h)

Gem looks interesting also....mother of all sliders on the way as the ridge pulls back west?

Ukmo following the gfs trend of the 06z run of building heights to our Northwest. A Greenland high looks the way forward to me and if do fair play to gfs for the first model to spot a trend here!!

GFS 12Z a perfect example of what we want to see less of during any slider low chances - note the movement / position of the low - too close to the UK and ends up as rain for manytempresult_dhi4.thumb.gif.99abda95910062df1ef878c203c05900.gif  tempresult_muv2.thumb.gif.d50444823e1fc20974da8a5ad3bfea96.gif tempresult_wih5.thumb.gif.943041fce7bd22c8f47eeb5238fbe18f.gif , will hopefully get a good example of what we want to see in the GEFS later - low(s) positioned more to the W / SW helping to pull in the colder air / uppers from the NE / E
