They are not counting on Met Office model because they don't want to get
their hopes up.

I'm no expert when it comes to weather, but I do enjoy a good cold spell
and
I've been following the discussion on here and on TWO since someone
noticed
this run..

The GFS has been up and down so many times now I really have no confidence
in it.. whatever happens next week it will have predicted it at some
point..

Early yesterday everyone thought the cold spell was going to collapse,
then
it got progressively more cold throughout the day and now its seems like
its
collapsing again.. same happened the day before.. I think we're just going
to have to wait and see..

A lot of people that know more than I do keep discounting the UKMO charts,
but it seems to me at least that these charts have been pretty
consistant..
why do people treat the GFS as gospel? Past performance?

There is the potential for the coming week to be one of the most
severe
we have had for a long
long time.

Are you still convinced of that given the recent runs?
