That’s interesting - I’ve read a fair bit of pessimism regarding winter with the failed eQBO and it going back westerly again.

I have a feeling this winter will be 'the one' but I'm not going to derail the model thread

Well it obviously isn't reproducing your chart:

image.thumb.jpg.9033c1ac7c7a5002e3cc7d1ec463531a.jpg

The different runs diverge from ages ago!!  Probably from some runs weeks ago, I would suggest.

The blue line is the analysis up to the 23rd, so I assumed it was from today, with the colours in the top right representing the last few runs going back in date order, and the circles today’s run. Though I can’t be 100% sure.

I haven’t seen many charts posted about the potentially thundery breakdown on Friday, an explosive end to our little hot spell so here is the Gfs 12z operational runs take on it!!!?️⛈️☀️

Nothing obvious from the ECM mean charts, T168 and T240:

To be perfectly honest, I think what ever might have happened to influence these charts, will have happened well before T144.   Let's leave it for another day and enjoy the sunshine!

Well this is an interesting one (I promise I'm not being a doom monger), a lot of those storms are surface based. GFS was a massive 5C out on dew points today through the midlands so the CAPE shown is MASSIVELY over inflated. There's also going to be the potential debris left over from elevated convection through the earlier hours, time and time again we've seen the models under the usually large amounts of mid level clag left from decaying storms. Hopefully this isn't another example!!

How does the south part of the Birmingham area look for storms on Friday? I am specific with my location because on Saturday 13th, overhead storms hit the city centre, but we just got rumbles.

Looking at the Gfs 0z operational it’s still very much game on for a thundery breakdown on Friday which is also a very warm and humid day although not as hot as today & tomorrow which are scorchers..up around 90F...!!

A lot of scatter, in today's GEFS 00Z ensembles, once we enter July; so, a changeable set-up looks assured, and attempting any day-to-day analysis is futile:

NH profiles would appear to back up the notion, that the GFS op's 2m temps are being undercooked... But, I guess we all know that!:oldlaugh:

Perhaps a more important concern (then again -- perhaps not?) is: What the fork's going on around the Pole?:shok:

Usual setup though, my area does badly with thunder/lightning off this setup, plumes nearly always break down with a whimper, unlike areas in the east

these charts must be taken with a bit caution as GFS tends to overdo these things , we shall see though and good for East Anglia and the East in general IF it manages to come off

Unsettled out to day 10 at least. 

 

Yes, NW Britain looks wet ,very little rain for the SE as far as i can see though so regional variations will apply.

Arpege is hot... 33c possibly 34c possible during the next couple of days.. ECM mean perhaps a traditional N/S split over the coming days... Pressure out to day 14 remains around 1016mb in the South... So not overly unsettled would be my call. Enjoy your days ☀️

Is that so...?

ecmt850.144.png ecmt850.168.png

It's not much I know, but still an appreciable break in the weather for England & Wales (but hard luck for most of Scotland ).

I realise the GFS 00z is not so kind but my point is, the potential is very much there for a variable regime rather than a persistently unsettled one.

GWO_members_current.png

CFSv2 Predicted AAM trends suggest reaching phase 4, to initiate an upward climb into 5 favouring more high pressure through the UK, is still a possibility. As is a shortfall on that... we just can't be sure which way it will go.

Using AAM projections is admittedly not a huge forecasting gain when we're in situations such as we are now. Conversely, there are times, when AAM is following a clear cycle (which usually means the lines in the plot shown above are orbiting outside the middle circle), that significantly increased confidence can be placed in model runs that show developments corresponding to such AAM behavior. 

Even during this 'weaker' time, AAM analysis tells me enough to consider a persistently unsettled outcome to be less probable than one featuring some settled interludes. This being despite strong model support for high pressure to affect a large part of the Arctic, which tends to make it more difficult for us to hold onto settled weather.

Overall, I'm inclined to expect at least two thirds of next week to be unsettled. Not a great prognosis, but it could be worse.

That Arctic high signal is really something - and very concerning with respect to the sea ice in the central basin.

That above chart should come with a health warning...

Blocking highs pretty much in the last place summer fans would want them..

Uncertain rather than changeable. A lot of scatter doesn't mean unsettled, just that the outcome is uncertain

Well, shiver me timbers, prospects for Saturday have improved a tad: low to mid twenties and some interesting (possibly even thundery?) LPs away to the west and southwest::oldgrin:
