“met4cast” on Twitter saying that strengthening easterly trade winds could be a bad sign for settled weather (negative AAM)

Ecm the best of the bunch this morning.  Nice rebuild of HP after the breakdown.

WX summary charts not loading this morning. Last night they hadn't changed much from the morning's output: WX charts scale back the warmth in Europe in week 2, especially around the Baltic. Britain grades from warm in the south to cool in the north; continental Europe stays generally warm; coastal Norway and Iceland rather cold.

GFS Op - Current HP with foundation of warm air squeezed out on Thu 27th by a link-up between LP Iceland and LP France (BBC this morning showing rain for the NW and for the S Wed into Thu). These two form a trough lying N-S, sometimes over Britain, sometimes down the N Sea and persisting through to Sat 6th between HP a few hundred miles to E and W. Even on the 6th the LP is not far away, but HP gets closer to the SW and starts to bring in NW-lies.

ECM - emphasises (as previously) the Icelandic end of the trough on Thu 27th (985mb Rockall) but restores HP quickly to cover Britain by Sun 30th before moving to a more zonal W-ly set-up on Wed 3rd (yesterday's ECM kept the trough in place so a significant upgrade even if it adds to an air of uncertainty)

GEM - also has the trough from Thu 27th, but like ECM by Mon 1st HP from the W has pushed the trough E-wards, at the expense of bringing in cool W/NW winds, but looking dry and settled.

GEFS - warm to about Thu 27th, then cool to Wed 3rd, finally back to norm, moderately good agreement of ensemble members throughout. Rain starts Wed 26th/Thu 27th and persists though amounts tend to decline with time, and are never enormous except for one or two runs in the SW,  .

Looks to be quite a consistent signal now for a cool westerly to setup as we go into July.

Been looking at the AIFS model recently.  The AI version of the ECM. It's verification stats hold up very well marginally better in fact compared to the ECM especially in the 168h-240h range. It's been forecasting HP nudging in to the UK at the beginning of July for a while now. Not perfect but not bad especially for the South.

The GEFS are pretty confident at least on a cooler spell in early July with some rain around. As always it could all change but at this stage a heatwave in the first 10 days or so of July is looking unlikely.

UKMO, ICON and GEM all look fine for the end of the week and the weekend next week.
GFS on the other hand looks distinctly Autumnal.
Let's hope the Euros and the Canadian model have this right.

12z arpege for the south gives some real, but short-lived heat, peaking Tuesday and Wednesday with a 19 minimum and 30 maximum for Wednesday locally. Let's see.

Looks like an excellent chance of 30 on both Wednesday and Thursday now... unfortunately for me, the latter is more likely here, according to the new MetO output!

It has 29C now as the high for Thursday (compared to 28 for Heathrow), but Heathrow still has 29C for Wednesday... when it's "just" 25C here.

It's a reminder that it's relatively easy to get temperatures of 7C above average (as 29 would be here), but far, far harder to get 7C below!

GFS is still being the party pooper which much cooler and less settled conditions than the other main models. 12Z op run was again at the lower end of the ensembles from much of the time.

ARPEGE is giving a 31C right over my location on Wednesday.

I'm sure I saw a 32C for London on the UKV earlier but that has disappeared now.

WX average temps still not loading; the rest of the site looks OK.

GFS Op - current HP chased away by deeper-than-previous LP 985mb Hebrides Thu 27th, returning briefly from the SW Sun 30th until another LP from Iceland 990mb Cairngorm Wed 3rd, this one with a trough reaching S Britain. HP continues to hover out to the SW with a general W-ly flow until Wed 10th when another LP from the NW reaches Malin 1000mb. 

In summary, HP to the SW of Britain and over S Russia, with a sequence of LPs from Iceland dipping across N Britain on their way to Norway.

ECM - goes into W-ly zonal flow pattern once the first LP is out of the way. The LP on Wed 3rd does not appear and at that date pressure is fairly high over Britain, centred to the SW with a light NW-ly flow. The best of the three major models.

GEM - somewhere between GFS and ECM with the LP on Wed 3rd present but further N, heading for Orkney and not really affecting England.

GEFS - warm to Thu 27th, mean of ens members dropping back to norm (cool for a few days in the N) and staying there to Wed 10th but on any given day there will be a run or two 5C above or below the mean. Rain at any time, very little in the SW, rather more but not that much in the N.
