I’m new to all this. What exactly is FI? I see it mentioned in posts everywhere, I can manage most terms or work them out and understand them, on a basic level but that one is a mystery! 

It’s a term used to described weather in the unreliable timeframe. 

Fantasy Island (I think)

At first glance but is it as clear as that?

Many thanks . Never thought FI meant that, I expected it to be some technical term.

O look more sarcasm in the model thread 

someone explain why people that have no interest in the actual models just come here to make sarcastic replies to people that wish to discuss what they see without expecting it to verify all the time.

 

the banter in this thread is mostly snide remarks

I think most of it comes from frustration and disappointment.

The less said about the ext EPS, the better.  Let's hope for better tomorrow!

Its not just that though is it?? The same people who constantly belittle charts at 10 days plus are usually the same ones that keep posting them! If everyone has little faith in FI charts then what is the point in posting them! They ain't ever gonna verify, so why bother, what next? A new model that can post Day 100 charts, then we can all have a good laugh about how crap summer is goona be!

Maybe there are a lot of varied solutions ?????

It's not sarcasm it's good humour and it helps to have a sense of humour with an ecm run like that.

PS..for those coldies lucky enough to be getting snow tonight..you deserve it!

I do actually .........whether it is ens up as a west based neg NAO I don’t know 

[feb1991blizzard 14,377]

Actually i should moderate that last comment to - i am not over confident of it verifying.

Most certainly not Sir you have me wrong.

ECM 12z mean and op closer than they were on the 00z. Not difficult I suppose given how much of a cold outlier it was at t192

I'm hoping march will deliver like last year..surely the background signals will have made it into the foreground by then, I will keep an eye on the sky for unusual seagull activity!!

Who needs the Wednesday 10 day met office trend when we have the vastly improved netweather 7 days a week 247 10 day trend! Much better value, keep them great posts coming, things may look bleak at present, but as we saw the other week, trends can flip suddenly, this time next week the beast 2 maybe incoming

[Snowboard Tennison Down 19]

So the models for the past week that have been widely discussed on this thread have suggested a snow event in the south albeit marginal at times and also caution south coast for rain/sleet. From 18:00 it has been dumping snow in the west IOW with a continued forecast for rain until the early hours! I guess this evidences the immaturity of weather predictions within the immediate time frame of a potential event?  I gain more informed forecasting from the well known frequent visitors of this forum than elsewhere
