just seen Gavin's update for christmas - mild and unsettled


and this continues into Jan as well - looks very poor for coldies - the Atlantic looks very strong


But if its any consolation dont forget that Xmas 1986 was also mild and unsettled - and we all know what happened after 10th Jan 1987

I think I am going to hand in the towel unless something more direct turns up soon. Originally I said that I expected a cold spell somewhere between the end of november and the 7th of december. In the last couple of days or so there has been little progress, and I worry the models may be pushing the interesting synoptics back until they dissapear.

As of 24th November Tromso had 55cm of laying snow.


This is the deepest for this early in the season since 24th November 1995!! The only season to even come close by the 24th was 2001 with 45cm


Between 1991-1994 nothing of note for 24th november.


Now in my eyes this gets intersting... 24th November 1990 saw 68cm laying snow..


There has been a none stop blizzard since yesterday so i reckon the 25th of november 2013 will be over 70cm


Didn't the  winter of 90/91 bring plenty of cold for us, likewise the wnters of 95/96 and 01/02?   Or am i just mixing things up in my head here.

The low heights over greenland are starting to be invaded by that arctic high now on the 18z. Meanwhile the ridge over the atlantic is ready to meet up with the greenland high, or the canadian high if greenland remains stubborn.

And I'm not worried about the subsequent collapse. The FI tended to revert to the more zonal pattern as usual, but the huge amounts of WAA in western canada should prevent the atlantic from toppiling any greenland block that does manage to form.

GFS 18z Op continues the trend towards a more potent northerly followed by the chance of a north-easterly of sorts. Will the ensembles continue to show 850hPA mean dipping to or below -5? 🙂

NAVGEM 18z up until 144


Upgrade from the 12z with noticble warm colours in alaska. The heights over greenland are also slightly less resistant, but this is a double edged sword. That section of PV over the baffin could cause alot of problems if it moves south towards canada, indeed it could potentially send a barrage of cyclones ready to destroy a tenously developing block. Luckily most of the models don't see this as an issue, with the whole PV basically being shunted east.
