I've been model watching for years Will, but it's never helped me
forecast the weather ;-)

Heh! Don't blame Will: that was me who scribbled that Keith! *~)

12z gfs keeps the same theme and the 00z ECM ensembles paints a cold
picture with both operationals ever so close to the ensemble mean for
once. So nailed on then....8))

Errr - I'm not sure Keith meant that a meteorological model Paul -
though apologies if I have misunderstood the smiley!

Cheers

Well they definitely don't want to be doing lingerie shoots outside
next week!

It looks "blooming cold" (as santa Claus would say!) for a fair old
time. This winter has further to run. The ECM and the gfs paint the
same, cold picture out to T240 and beyond. No hints of the Atlantic
breaking through yet. When spring finally does come, with the
alleviation of this coming cold, it will come with relief for many!
The great British public are going to have to grin and bear it over
the next 10 days at least. There's a very tight ECM ensemble plume,
right out to the 14th/15th and the operational runs have remained
amazingly and unusually close to the mean for the last 2 sets.

Cold to 10 days. Even when my confidence is high, I've always waited 3
days before another forecast - to hopefully shrug off accusations of
"cashing in" on what I see as a confident situation - and I would
expect to be saying that the cold will extend past mid-month tomorrow,
but you can never be sure. I've read that models can be capricious
things!
