We Need a link up here, defo a step back cold from the GFS here - It’ll be interesting to see the ENS vs 06z ens.

A link up here would be good.

If we push the envelope and widen it to encompass a greater extreme of GFS we would stay wintry, if we did the same with UKMO we would stay wintry, the middle ground not so much, so guess where we will fall?

Le sigh.

So.... mild blip...mild even at all?

Models confused 

Ive seen enough here at 150 to know there is a chance of the battoeground/slider event around the 10th give or take a day or 2 i spoke about.

Were trending back to continued cold. So again. Talking with certainty about the end to cold is very premature yet. 

If that sharpens forget mild blip think snowy blip as discussed 3 days ago

I back this post. A more negative tilt here would significantly amplify the ridge > Omega ridge > southerly jet with sliders > snow potential.

Wedge is once again on my mind as well as the GFS apparently. Getting very weird feelings about this Jan and Jan 2013.

UKMO showing the way to proper cold at 144 hours,lets see some consistency from it tomorrow.

Eh? How do you work that out?

Are you talking about an inversion cold?

Yeah i could see this option played out in this chaotic head of mine 5 days ago when it was called.

Its only one run though so becuase i said sit on the fence of mild you have to sit on the fence of this scenario as well.

But since yesterdays 12z as the models hit high res they havw started to go against thrm ensembles calling us to go mild

Fine lines, a shift to the east and mild, but everyone's favourite word: POTENTIAL, that way lies...

I’d take this from the ECM at 192, no warm ups here. If the ENS follow this the swing on the ENS graph would be huge. 
Ill defo not hold my breath without UKMO on board.

If you go to the EXMWF site and search for SSW, there are some interesting papers. One that caught my eye was a proposal to approve a project, over 2021 to 2023,  outlining compute needed to work it BTW, on predicting SSW. Looks to me that the last 10 years has really developed the ability to forecast SSW, but I am not so sure I have read anything concreate yet on the predictability of  it's effects, there being 3 major buckets an SSW may fit into, with ENSO and NAO thrown in. I believe a to La Nina is the best state to be in for accuracy on predictions. Not enough time to get more than a glance, and it's clear the professionals are still working on it, given the complexity and the resources needed, we can't hold our breath.  Otherwise one has to wait and see, perhaps as late as end of month. Not todays 12z that's for sure.

Yes but we were way further east with the pattern yesterday the block has only shifted further and further west with every run to the point were nearly in slider potential.

I thought slider at this week jist dint expect ir to trend so far east to have to make corrections back to a cold pattern

^^ But guys @Scott Ingham @Kasim Awanwe were here but 24 hours ago & the GFS > p has now moved to the UKMO

Its no good keep backing the same horse that pulled up lame even if it does look great....

More energy that anticipated is going to push up from the south- The 12z (p) Creates a steeper easterly than the UKMO but look how far away it is from the GFS.

GFS totally out on a limb now dont fall for the same mistake twice-

Yes only one option with a hopefull attitude disclaimer but we shall not villify it completely. We know the model volatility associated with SSWs in terms of blocking. Let's keep an eye.

24 hours ago the GFS has the same chart practically as the UKMO.

Its backed further west with every run.

I may be wrong and if i am i am but my call would be for us not to turn mild like ensembles forecast a week ago.

But we make these calls and live and die by them i guess!

I have to make a call and this one is mine.

Chances are far greater we end up mild i agree and im not telling everyone this is what will happen. Its just my own opiniom.

I called it 8 days ago. It looked dead 2 days ago its edging back since then

The block was further East yesterday and even worse two days ago to the point the high looked to be toppling over europe.

This gfs run it has trended further west and isnt toppling over the UK as much on the 10th

Sorry if it’s not the right place but can someone briefly explain the difference between a wedge and a ridge? (Other than wedges make sledges )  

A ridge is a pointed area of  strong high pressure, where as a wedge is a rounded weak area of high pressure

My memory may be playing tricks on me but haven’t the last few runs and last 3/4 days of ensembles shown the warm up to be 15th? I can see the cold being extended by a couple of days but haven’t seen the general trend change that much ??‍♂️
