6am analysis this morning shows no fronts in the area, just a low to
the southwest. The T+24 forecast however shows fronts "appear" over
northern areas --- what's happened here?

Nick, the charts are subjective but I suspect it's a frontogenetic situation
with the area of 'weather' eventually taking on the properties of the more
conventional warm/cold/occlusion. In saying that if you look at the 06Z
analysis it doesn't take much imagination to link the troughs together to
resemble the system on the 06Z T+24, as strange as it may seem.

Jon.
