You forget that there are a lot of members who live in not so favoured areas 

I suspect he doesn't forget that, since he acknowledges explicitly that it is SOME members who have been enjoying great conditions. Probably also expects people on here to behave like adults and to be capable of accepting others having a good time without becoming upset because they haven't had the right weather themselves...

Aaanyway, a little disheartened by today's modelling of the next few days in the SE - not the upgrades I was hoping for, and some warmer 850s threatened than shown yesterday.

On the brighter side, we had ice-y, hail-y pellets today among what I expected to be uniformly rain.

So the gfs op 12z was a signature run?

>>>anim_tvz7.gif

If that is the case, def a period of unsettled weather for the UK up to and beyond d16; so end of month for the blocks to settle and maybe an Atlantic ridge for our sector and hopefully not too west based? The Pacific ridge seems more Alaska based on this suite, a recurring theme this winter?

The mean...

...shows a similar pattern as you suggest but for obvious reasons not so well defined. That does suggest the transitory phase will not be blocked, so normal UK Jan flow?

Observe the pattern, three TPV lobes are forming. SSW will disintegrate TPV to mid latitudes. One will be for Europe, question is how far west it can move.

Obviously it's decided to be a bit more stubborn and linger a bit longer!

Wow Icey pellets...this is the winter that keeps on giving we are getting really desperate in the south aren’t we!  Looks like Friday is the best chance for most. Just need that front to not decay as it heads south. Fingers crossed for a Flurry for Barry in Costa Del Devon

Good explanation.....that good for the uk tho lol?

If Kyle Henry is right It's very bad for us. North America going cold usually means the jet stream flinging lows at us. It shows the folly of us saying  there was no chance of zonality, because if he is right that's exactly what will likely happen. Let us hope it would only be temporary, but who can say for sure.

Forget the low to the NW, my attention would be to the S over Iberia. Quite a steep thermal gradient to take place, and could blow that low up a fair bit. It’s having a big influence on this run at the moment.

Oh after all the angst in here earlier, LOL if the pub run is still groping for it:

Parallel is also having a pause for thought... Marginally slower pushing west to east.

Can't be often you see the 20C isotherm sneaking into the Med in January.

I don’t think it’s always a guarantee that America going cold results us in a mild westerly regime?

Yes the upper flow is NW/W,but there are still a lot of high latitude blocking around Greenland>Urals.

The red dotted lines are the areas of high pressure, the green line is the direction of travel/wind
