Yes, the 00Z GFS and ECM seem rather to have swapped places, with the GFS now bringing in zonality and the ECM not. -- John Hall "I look upon it, that he who does not mind his belly, will hardly mind anything else."

TBH Jon I'm not that bothered, I'm happy with my 7"-12" (depending on altitude) really! I just don't want any mild air. Will -- |
