ECMWF and now GFS quite bullish about possibility of blizzards next
weekend over northern England as fronts push north into -5C to -10C air at
850 hPa. Strong easterly winds. UKMO much less keen but ECM ensembles
quite solid for two runs now. Interesting mild/very cold battleground
coming up I reckon, but where will it be? Southern England, northern
England, Scotland?
Gobsmacking too how GFS keeps the polar jet running way south into North
Africa right into April, not good news for our farmers who could be really
struggling in a week or two :-(


Oh for heaven's sake, enough is enough!

Meteorologically interesting of course but that would be
late March, it's been cold for so long, where's spring??


Is the jetstream meandering so much that there's less difference in
temps between the poles and the tropics?

I hope that the forecast changes, as the spring steam gala is next
weekend on the severn valley railway.

And of course I want to open my windows! LOL
