Hopefully this will be an outlier. The synoptics look great, yet this run seems determined to find a way for us not to benefit fully. However, it is well into FI by that point, so not really worth fretting.

Not particularly confidence inspiring, three ECM runs which have handled things upstream differently on each run, even at quite short timescales.

I would be shocked if the warmth was sheered away as easily as is on this run though.

The unsettled blip that the ECM is showing on day 8 doesn't look to be lasting long and shows HP ridging in again.

Well into FI as stated above so there isn't the need to worry about that yet.

What was @Daniel* saying? ECM T240:

Of course FI is T144 or less, but there is an ‘all roads lead to rome’ kind of inevitability of where we might up in the late half of July, I think.  

JMA, just to illustrate that it is FI, has gone for the heat infusion option at T192:

Lots of uncertainty remains in play...we will see...

That’s day 10 again more fool you. Never said weather was that bad but you cannot dispute later next week which is semi reliable timeframe is trending away from heat. Warm and settled weather is struggling to anchor down this summer. It seems GFS may have lost its way again.

Wouldn’t be banking on anything with ex-Fay being injected into the jet stream. Could end up with anything yet.

All the good Summer stuff remaining in FI

We just can't seem to shake that Atlantic trough off.

We do have a 3 day warm spell widespread with ECM well it’s not far from average. Very dry run a positive.

Depends where you are though. All models look decent in the SE. Usual NW/SE disclaimer applies.

So we now have these ECM mean charts for D5 and D6. Pretty close to the op runs. Surely it can't go wrong from here?

Doesn’t look like it is going to go wrong from here T192, T240:

Looks good for mean chart at that range...maybe even the much vaunted anomaly charts (I’m not a fan) will give us their blessing tomorrow.  And the clusters of course, with perhaps even more relevance.  We can hope.   Been a very grey and dull couple of weeks here, not what you want in high summer...

And while I’m on, the dull weather of the past two weeks have affected SSTs in the Atlantic, not so conducive to summer now, so other factors will need to fuel the longevity of the settled spell this week, if that is to happen,  but maybe a tripole emerging to benefit winter?  Here, latest chart:

ECM clusters @144 are still looking good!

Let's hope the worst does not happen...

Decent runs again this morning.

ECM starts to rebuild the Azores high again at day 9, prolonging then settled weather. Looking good.

Its also been a good while since we’ve seen the accumulated ppn charts look dry for the majority. The far west of Scotland aside, 0-10mm over the next 10 days for many, which is much needed!

Good morning, folks!:hi:

Here's the GFS 00Z at T+141 hours: nae much point in going further ahead (Atlantic tropical storms an' all)... It's nae bad!

And, for what they're worth, given an active hurricane season, the ens:

So, thank the Lord that the chances of 35C seem to have gone, for now. Alleluia!

Sunday 12 th July

An update as the models have altered some items shall we say on the chart for 6-10 days.

Ec-gfs now show differences quite markedly from the charts issues only yesterday; ec has shifted any +ve height rises well into the atlantic beneath a less marked trough and its forward part is now shown over or indeed e of the uk. Gfshas ‘lost’ any indication of height rises s of the uk, it has any very small such rises off the eastern seaboard into s Greenland, the trough is not far from its suggested position yesterday.

Meanwhile noaa has put a small area of +ve heights over the s of the uk and n france, little signal for this yesterday, and has changed the depth and position/orirntation of the trough.

All told sufficient differences in 24 hours to say the upper air pattern seems more fluid than usual and best not taken too much for granted until we get consistency over 2-3 days and both run to run and with one another. Unusual for this lack of confidence in them at this time of year.

Not bad runs this morning.  That said, I'm not overly keen on the GFS which shows a flatter pattern around days 5 and 6 and as such the Azores never really gets in.

Once again, the ECM reserves the best charts for days 9-10, eventually these will become reality!!!!

Overall, it's still looking positive with a pretty decent week for many coming up.

Generally positive output over the past few days though cautious beyond 4-5days given TS Fay and how quickly Eduardo flattened the pattern this week just gone giving a very poor 2-3day spell in places, just don't seem to be to those positive heights over us for more a day or two before they slip back south west. Still the suns out today and I'm enjoying it already, hopefully some more of this later in the week.

Many thanks for the update @johnholmes; it's like the currently active hurricane-season is wreaking havoc with any attempts at forecasting, just now: It could be anything from 35 to 15C, from what I am seeing...

And, whatever the critters are that have chewed my right forearm are, I blame the weather!:shok:

ECM was above the average at day 9/10, but with the mean holding at 1020mb it shouldn’t be bad at all.

Morning NW .What's this "det" you include in a lot of your postsI'd agree also in regard to the Azores high influence but whether it has any longevity remains to be seen with all usual caveats .tia
