I defy anybody to claim they know what is going to happen in a weeks
time. The divergence of the output is such that there is almost 17 degC difference between highest and lowest GFS ensemble members (850 hPa) for the whole period after the 20th. I'm reasonably confident that the maximum temperature on Christmas Day will be between -2C and 10C. Dave |

I'm reasonably confident that the maximum temperature on Christmas Day will be between -2C and 10C. Dave Try looking at JMA, UKMO and ECMWF for further "customer choice". My feeling is that it is going to be somewhat less cold than the GFS runs shown in wetter3.de. As for the max on Christmas Day I'd say you were being unfeasibly precise considering it's a fortnight away, far more so than Suzanne Charlton who in December 1995 once forecast that the min in Scotland on a particular night would be between -3°C and -16°C. That should cover it but to be fair to her she didn't have the time to elaborate, it being the 0030 R4 weather slot when the pressure of scheduling is at its height as we all know.

I'm reasonably confident that the maximum temperature on Christmas Day will be between -2C and 10C. Dave The 00Z shows a similar spread. Incidentally, the scenario the models are showing of a low moving south from Spitzbergen later this week (I still stick to the old convention that Sunday is the first rather than last day of the week) reminds me a lot of last February. -- John Hall "I look upon it, that he who does not mind his belly, will hardly mind anything else."

Not the 0030 Dec 1995 forecast! I bet she's glad you don't bear grudges ;-) Dave |
