I hope the high hasn't gone too far north east haha

Deep FI , but it would look ok to me. Better than it being too far south

Just a little bit different in placement on the Scandi high 

Could be a big battleground event ahead tho

The middle ground of those 2 images would be just about perfect, I expect the mean ENS will be another improvement on the medium to long term temps!!

Aye, Atlantic looks further East on 06Z, as a snowfan much prefer this to the 00Z, risky though as milder air into the west, can't get rid of the quote

Could someone tell me what these charts would end up with in the end? 

Cold out east , Atlantic out west = huge snow event at day 10. Will look different next run through. Most important is the tiny push west of the pattern at 132

Tim's point/question was a very pertinent one. No problem at all if you are only interested in 3+ days - same as the majority of the UK population! But for +72, most apps will give a good guide (except for specifics of snowfall in these sorts of setups etc). This thread has been at its most helpful when members have explained what is shown at longer timeframes and assessed the different probabilities of it. Longer term cold evolutions seem to be entirely within probability at the moment. It's much more difficult for a member to explain why/how etc than for someone to simply say it won't/can't happen.

It's merely an opinion that's all, if the situation over the the UK in 15 days time is anything similar to the current one, then fine i'll hold my hands up and admit an error of judgement, it's just that these setups have happened in the past and almost totally collapsed, and please don't ask me on any date(s) as my recall is not great.

Good morning all charts showing Scandinavian block taking over.Must comment on how 

Met office 30day maintained that Atlantic low pressure would not make any inroads into

UK after several days of GFS/ECM showing low pressure taking over along with milder temperatures 

also stated cold high pressure to take over all be it at the end of month,so all credit to Exeter/ Glosea 5.

Am I correct in that if this block is holding firm then we will have a very cold but dry couple of weeks??

Day 6-9 looks very dry, but after this it may not be,

Edit, there may be bits and pieces of snow in the west as systems fizzle out in day 6-9

Hi yes temperatures will depend on orientation of high pressure,more inclined to stay dry but

not totally.

Unreal cold

Surely that would bring snow showers to all. The useless precip charts keep my part of central southern England dry throughout this run.

Ensembles show it’s possible as do other models like GEM which could evolve to a similar solution. @Paul_1978@DIS1970 why do you think it’s unlikely and what do you think is likely? Which model do you think has the correct pattern and can you share the image?  That would be more  akin to ‘model discussion’ than just saying ‘not going to happen’ or ‘it’s FI so bin it’. Fair enough if you think that but if every member just wrote things like that we would just have a very boring thread

icon stays cold out to Friday but still manages to push some some light snow across most areas. Perhaps some heavier into the south west / South Wales

T+384 charts never come close to happening. It's fine posting these charts (it's the model output thread after all), and I'm pleased that you like them, but I think most of us here have a bit of realism when it comes to anything at that timescale
