On balance I feel that we are in for an interesting time in January with
very
cold air just to our east and lows over the UK - the usual borderline
situation
and a real headache for our professional forecasters.

Does look like Thursday and Friday could be quite a challenge. As for
January (and winter !), I still think the crowd are on the pitch, Will !
Full calendar year without a snow flake coming up here.

The upper pattern just does not seem quite right for a significant
bloked pattern, and the jet propagating east across the Atlantic in
the next few days, backs slightly rather than veers.

However, I am probably playing Devil's Advocate.
