Hi Stuart

Did I read that the current forecast counselling didn't occur so far down last Feb?

Like you say this could lead to new issues for certain models

i think we all need counselling in here...

GFS supporters right now seeing that is backtracking towards the ECM

Anyone would think that weather-watching was like cheering-on your local football team!

Though, if it were, Real Madrid might be as good a bet as any?

No no, the gfs can't possibly be moving over to the ecm, some (ok 1 or 2) in the mod thread were certain the gfs solution was the favoured outcome lol

All i see is a foetus and a little piggy.

GFS is still pants for Friday, very wet day here, not really trended towards ukmo and EC yet, 

[cobbett]

Why do I get the feeling that the ECM will be so bad later that everyone will be looking to the GFS for salvation

Interesting that many are salivating over this evening's ecm because at the end it's not a million miles from this morning's run.

I don't know why anyone would be surprised by this mornings charts, unless of course you're new to all this.

Yes. If this ECM run for the next 10 day isn’t brilliant then the next 6 weeks of winter are over.

Jeez

Well I was one run out - oh well back to GFS FI chasing 

[Guest]

I think that’s winter just about wrapped up. The trend is clear for the foreseeable. Leaves a few weeks of winter back end of February.

[knocker]

Major upgrades this morning and I'm concerned there may be another Jonestown

[Paul_1978]

Don’t you just know it.... waking up to a crap run. 

[SteveB]

I don't know about anyone else, but this model watching in Winter is getting boring. Same old crap year in year out. It's like self flagellation, looking at the charts every six hours and seeing the same fails each time, but we carry on regardless in the vain hope that some of the good charts actually happen.

 

Surely we will see something proper before Spring that will deliver for all, but I wish we were all talking about how much snow we are likely to get, or just how cold is it  going to be, rather than the usual dross we are having to put up with now.
