Here is a summary of the latest NWP output for noon on Thursday. Issued
0533z, 25 June 06.

The models show high pressure settling over Scandinavia towards the end of
the week, with southerlies or SE'lies likely as a result. Temperatures will
be on the warm side over England and Wales, but further north and west an
Atlantic low will probably bring more in the way of cloud and lower
temperatures.

ECMWF: http://85.214.49.20/pics/Recm1201.gif
A high covers the North Sea, bringing a mixture of southerlies and SE'lies
over the UK. SE'lies and easterlies cover the UK at T+144 as the high moves
NE'wards, followed by light winds for all at T+168 from a col.`

MetO: http://85.214.49.20/pics/Rukm1201.gif
The MetO run shows a small ridge over SE England and SW'lies elsewhere, with
a deep low to the WNW. The ridge builds and moves northwards at T+144,
leading to easterlies for England and Wales with southerlies elsewhere.

GFS: http://217.160.75.104/pics/Rtavn1201.png
Southerlies cover the UK due to complex low pressure to the NW and a high to
the east. A shallow trough moves over Ireland at T+144 with SSE'lies for the
UK and by T+168 the trough moves over Scotland with westerlies elsewhere.

GEM: http://meteocentre.com/models/glb00_120.html
As with GFS, the UK lies under southerlies due to a low to the west and a
high to the ENE.

JMA: http://85.214.49.20/pics/Rjma1201.gif
The Japanese run shows a low centred to the NW and SW'lies for all as a
result. The winds become southerlies at T+144 as the low fills and pressure
builds over Scandinavia.

NOGAPS: http://85.214.49.20/pics/Rngp1201.gif
NOGAPS shows SW'lies for all, again due to a low to the NW.
