Sounds like a state of the union speech :-)

High confidence for cold weather on the way, but it is going to be
absolutely fascinating for us meteorologists.

I'm more or less ruling out a straight easterly with bitterly cold ice
days and air as "dry as a witches wotsit" scenario. What I am going
for is a "battleground UK". There's going to be some very interesting
weather I fancy.


06Z GFS not only has a battle but a World War one trench warfare scenario!
Fronts coming in from the west running up against the block. Heavy snow
in places, rain in others, but then turning back to snow again, a
forecaster's nightmare. I still fancy some red warnings will be on
offer. Blood and guts, toys out of the pram, severe weather, all the
drama of a British winter :-)
