15th Jan (19:46) So this is the last day of a most interesting spell.

Unfortunately the next one is somewhat similar, so expect very little
change in the GEM and GFS charts.

11:37 is as near to noon as 19:46 is to 18:00 as damn it is to
swearing. And the expected situation on this chart:

at these times is:
A standing Low Pressure area situated somewhat to the left of the
Great Lakes.
With a complex set of High pressure areas trying to break through from
the west.

no different from the weather above the tropopause.

And I know what you are all thinking now......
"Why didn't you think of that?"

And the answer is:

Because you are all a bunch of lemons.
