It’ll be a fairly chilly day up there. Nowhere near a record.

People moan about this forum being too Southern England/London centric.


May I tentatively suggest that it has become too Moomin centric.


Moomin this, Moomin that. Moomin’s summer forecast, Moomin’s predictions, whether or not Moomin was right all along, whether or not Moomin will be wrong. 


We are absolutely OBSESSED with Moomin. The Moomin Output Discussion thread. 


It’s all good entertainment though isn’t it. More predictable than the models at least. 




And now I’ve just made it worse. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜€πŸ˜€πŸ˜€

I will never forget 1995. The year the landscape went to dust.


By mid August it looked like we were living in Southern Spain.

Frankly whatever happens in July and August I already feel like we've had a long summer here - it started in late March and has continued more or less undisturbed ever since! I think I've already had more alfresco lunches and dinners than I normally manage in a year (helped of course by working from home)


 


Looking at the tabular GFS output for here, this coming Friday, Saturday and Sunday look likely to be wet but with most of the rain in the early morning. After that there's not really a strong rain signal apart from the period of July 2-4.

I have said several times I was wrong in terms of temperatures. Happy to accept that and the necessary ridicule that deservedly follows.
However, for many areas, it's been a wet June and after today and tomorrow's brief hot spell, many more will become wet and I think there will be some headline making weather on Friday.
Thereafter, the models are ALL pretty changeable. I went for a cool June, I will plump for an average July temperature wise.

You may be closer to the mark regarding your July thoughts. At the moment there are no clear signals either way, so it'll be a tricky call and I applaud anyone who is brave enough to forecast the month ahead.

Definitely no forecast, but a strong hunch. I just don't like the background signals and the longer term models are quite poor too. In the best summers, the Azorea high comes into play by strongly ridging in. As I've said previously, it is trying to ridge in, but is being forced back each time, and so fleeting settled spells are possible, but interspersed with much more in the way of rain and cooler for all.

Very strange looking charts at the moment especially for July. It will probably turn out average but unusual.

Awful charts this evening. Somehow they feel wrong. Because? Because we’ve had too many disappointing summers in the last 2 decades during an era of global warming. It feels we are owed big time.

Imagine if we were in a period of year on year rapid global cooling, and we kept getting snowless winters. It would feel WRONG. That’s how this feels.
