Met Office and BBC Weekly/Monthly Outlooks
Bullseye replied to Blessed Weather's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
Not sure they already backing down for February when it states likely increased chance of North or Easterly winds and also greater chance of colder conditions compared to mild (which would normally be more likely for UK, more so these days). Seasonal models surely can't be wrong at one month lead time, as many of them including GLOSEA and ECM seasonal have blocking for month of Feb (and March). If this was was 3-months I would say low chance but at 1-month out has to be some sort of confidence for colder weather. -
Many thanks for this, found that very interesting. Considering the recent winters in UK especially with warming world, I think this shows Glasgow actually has done fairly well - Jan/Feb 2015 was eye opener for me and also shows that 2020/21 winter really was something! Fingers firmly crossed for some promising wintery scenes next week for us lot . Some of the runs this morning had Scotland under 850hpa temps of around -11/-12, could be really low overnight temperatures especially further north. This is also why I don't agree with some on MOD thread saying this is fairly normal "cold" spell.

Model Output Discussion - Into 2024
Bullseye replied to Catacol's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
What was interesting though is today was the first long range update from MO that now has different wording to previous few days (which was more or less the same wording). For them to change long range wording must be due to them having confidence or better idea of that timeframe. Question I would ask, IF EC and GFS are correct regarding change going from 12z runs then what has caused the sudden change because it certainly can't be background signals or any new data with regards to strat warming/large temp increase. Would also mean the rather consistent EC 46 of past week would have missed this too but again this is only IF EC/GFS continue to trend away from sufficient blocking. -

Eyes on that cluster of near 0 zonal winds for around two weeks time especially when compared to only 48 hours ago. Looks to also be some momentum on further blocking into final week of month leading into February - would further support seasonal models thinking last few months. -

UKMO splits the PV while GFS keeps it intact at same timeframe. -
Life is good in the big house tonight although some disagreements on Kent snow totals and mention of Feb 2021 - cracking month for snow up here along with Jan 2021 but won't mention that to them Should see us lot up here get a well needed break from wind and rain, some potentially low max temps I would imagine although likely dry and frosty - maybe foggy too. Don't mind that me. Obviously this is based on ECM run but backed up by MO daily updates.

EC 46 from tonight is now running colder for W.Europe including UK week covering 15th - 22nd Jan, this is compared to last night's update.
