Sounds like the models are wobbling on the cold spell (surprise surprise). Give it another day or two and we will be back to looking at mild South Westerlies for December.

[quote=Brian  I'll need to go through the archives but I wonder if we could be seeing something like last Christmas shaping up. Comparisions with 2010 are misplaced.

 



Small note: we're still in November

On the subject of SWlies, the GEFS ensemble wind "roses" look some of the least SWly I have seen:

Yes but I remember last Christmas we went from looking at a significant cold spell to extremely mild South Westerlies so it could still happen, especially if the blocking ends up weaker and further northwards than the models are predicting.

I'm not one to discount GFS which can sniff out a pattern change, but the suite is holding and ECM is impressive.

I know it's pointless looking at detail at such a range, but I love the formation of a shortwave low at the end of the ECM  - not least because it deveops in frigid air and is in the right position for once!

Not had a chance to look at the models until this evening and all looks broadly as it did yesterday to me. A chilly outlook, with a decent chance of colder air in the mid to long term but by no means universal agreement, suggesting milder options remain very much on the table but less likely than colder ones for a change (IMO). 

The GFS op (and control I assume although not looked at the charts for that) are just playing with the LP being more influential (for the South in particular) than the HP before the Atlantic winds back up, an option that's been in the ens all along. I assume the monster LPs deeper in to FI reflect all the cold air over a relatively mild sea along with the contrast with the much warmer air coming up from the South pepping things up.

For once, the MJO looking to steer us into a possible 'monster' Greenland HP scenario by mid December with decent chances for widespread snowfall even to low levels. 
Expcect reasonable to good consistency of blocked set ups in the models over the coming days & weeks.

From what I recall, the models played around with a potential cold spell from the east for a while and at one point, it looked as though it was a genuine possibility. I think it was always a more touch-and-go affair though than what seems to be the case this time, going by the present output.

GFS and GFSP 18z runs are very consistent with the earlier updates and both show a less cold outcome next week than some of the other models.  Kudos to the GFS if it's got this right.

GFS making much more of the low pressure and pushing it northwards keeping most of Europe in milder air apart from Scandinavia. 

With GEM also poor this evening the ECM is looking like the odd man out. Still no sign of any southwesterlies though 😉

The GFS update is scheduled for tomorrow

Effective November 30, 2022, "beginning with the 1200 Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) run, the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) will upgrade the Global Forecast System (GFS) from version 16.2.2 to 16.3.0"
