I don't watch TV forecasts anymore, but I'd be interested to know what
confidence figure Rob attached to the forecast?

He said they were pretty confident - one front on Wednesday and then
another Thurs/Friday IIRC.

Although it doesn't seem to be a particularly notably cold northerly? Had
6c in the south come Friday.

I think think your excitement for the forthcoming week is being clouded by
anomalously high altitude and those extra few degrees, Will ! Most of us
mere mortals down south are close to sea level!


Well GFS 06Z run has 850 hPa of -7C over London on Saturday. I find it hard to
believe that that would mean a max. of 6C? Clearly GFS has not been followed,
which is fair enough, but it shows the possibilities, writing this one off 5
days away is far too premature in my view.
