I'm getting to the stage where I just can't be bothered spending so much
time creating fictitious images in my head purely based on model watching
and silly forecasts but hardly ever panning out in reality.

Well there you go - sit back, relax and let it all unfold (until about
4pm this afternoon when the 12z GFS comes out and shows a different
scenario).

Actually the GFS has been consistent with the mild change for the Christmas
period, I think this is now the fith run that its shown it.

I might believe it if it was a forecast on the 18th, not the 11th.

The updated Met Office outlook is now accepting this change of type as
a possibility. It would also fit with long term climatology where the
usual pre-Christmas cold and anticyclonic type is replaced by a
milder, wetter pattern, usually sometime between 24th and 26th Dec.
