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 :-(




Well here we are, "next weekend", and who's a clever Eskimo, then?

Just as I said. Say it enough and you're bound to be right once in a while.
