It has come to my attention lately ,that several members of this happy
breed seem to take grave exception to those of us who attempt making
long range forecasts,
well ,I for one, actually enjoy reading most of 'em,even the south
London Piers attempts !,.
If there are enough mugs around to pay good money for their ravings well
so be it,but why do people get so upset because they try ?.Most of us
have a vicarious streak in us ,which needs feeding every so often,so
keep up the good work lads( I say lads because women don't seem prone to
this phenomena)
Unashamably I now look forward to Wills ,Philip Eden,the Met Office,Old
Moores Almanac,and any other brave soul willing to put their necks on
the line so that I may daydream about the next blizzard ,heatwave ,or
whatever turns you on.
Thankyou and goodnight

Cheers Ron, I enjoy producing them and I take pleasure when they
occasionally come off! This winter's has already gone wrong (though not
the informal amendment), but it went wrong in the right way (for me).

I still reckon it will be a historic winter!

Well Will I see Accuweather via Joe is showing a major cold out break all
the way to the deep south, thank you ma'am. The actual models show snow as
far south as Galveston and that's enough to freeze of your Glenn
Campbell's. However I don't think that fits the pattern of J B's LRF for
the USA which was cold and snowy up until Christmas and then fairly
benign.

Anyway Will what are you seeing that fills you with such damned bravado?

That damned stratosphere looks threatening to me! At least at 200 mb if you
know how to interpret the charts from GFS. Just look at that polar vortex
migrating SW'wards next weekend, ooh er!
