Christmas is coming, we're two weeks into Winter already and in that short time we've had the first cold snap of the season, including a bit of snow, swiftly followed by the first mass toy throwing / winter's over period of the season too. What's to come next? Maybe a colder spell as we head into the Xmas period?

As always, please keep it to the models and keep it friendly in this thread. If you spot any issues, please report the post rather than responding to it. If you're wanting to chat more generally about this winter, or maybe have a ramp, please head off to the winter chat thread:

As a complete newbie to reading the charts, and after the last cold spell which didnt seem to proceed as expected?

What are the pitfalls we are looking for this time, trends beginning to appear in posters comments and i presume its getting all the synoptics inside 144hrs or less ?

Thanks

To the more knowledgeable, is this a 3 wave pattern?

Admittedly not the most knowledgeable of people, but looks like the start of a 3 wave pattern with the Pacific, Western UK and Eastern Russian ridges attempting to pinch the Vortex from the 3 sides.

Posted this in the previous thread but it still stands. Coldies and snowies its is your duty  and your god given right to check out the 00zgfs extended control run 384-840.   it is uttely outrageous and a thing of beauty for which the term Cobra run is insufficient.

just a taster below

Last night when I said the latest GFS was looking more amplified it went off the rails, therefore . No comment on the 12z as it will go pear shape again.

Filth!  Lets hope the 12z runs keep our seasonal Christmas hopes alive!

The midnight ECM is certainly interesting with -4 to -8 850's drawing down on December 24th, in from the North West. This is 10 days out, but better it showing than not showing.

Latest 144 gfs vs the rest at the same time frame on their most recent runs..

Possibly copying the ukmo's homework?

The 12z GFS op back to the 0z outcome with the low on the jet at d7:

It merges with the trough and no Azores cut-off low on this run; so will be different again! We will get a warm sector delaying the cold on this run.

Out to t198 the GFS appears to have the consistency of a baby’s nappy. 

It could still turn out ok - high pressure appears to be more prevalent to the north east on the 12z.

Initially I felt it was flatter but from around 168 I’m seeing much better heights to our north and artic high applying a little pressure.

is that little low just over Ireland gonna be our trigger  ?

Yes more of a slow burner but clearly an option  

Amplification towards Greenland around 216 might still kick things off...

The models are struggling with the ESB low with regards to phasing with the upper/parent low at 144 and until this is sorted out,then anything past this point fruitless,if this low doesn't phase with the parent low then better heights in the Atlantic would build 

the Icon doesn't phase this low whereas the UKMO and gfs does hence a flatter pattern,UKMO the middle ground here.

or am i talking a load of cobswollacks ,maybe we want it to phase

That low won't be decided on, till around three day's out or may be, even less time. Little micro changes, make big changes to how the pattern will look. Get ready for Shannon to reappear.
