Dunno, but the UKMO model's solution in the 00Z seems to be close to
that of the ECM.

It does, it's true. FAX charts show the little feature clearly causing
some mischief down the east coast on Thursday/Friday. 06z gfs keeps it
well to our east.

Tell you what, if this isn't Spring, I don't know what is. Half the
estate is out in their gardens in wonderful warm sunshine, the back
door is actually being kept *open* and the dog has ventured out to lie
on the patio. Spring has definitely sprung in South Devon. Could be a
sucker's spring, of course, but after so much dreadful weather I'll
settle for any kind of spring for any length of time! I suppose
winters like this one do cause you to appreciate the change in the
weather more.
