I know I bang on about WeatherOnline a lot but they keep adding good stuff. This is a new one (unfortunately for subscribers only) - bar charts showing percentage of ensemble members that sit within a specific temperature bound:

ECMWF 00Z:

GFS 06Z:

ECMWF in particular showing more ensemble members in the sub 5c temperature category as we move into the New Year. Would be also useful to know from these datasets where the operational run sits and where the ensemble control sits.

For the GFS, I find this very useful:

The -2 indicates latitude 2 degrees west and the 51 is for longitude 51
degrees north. So that would be somewhere in the region of Bristol. I
haven't tried any other co-ordinates, so I don't know if they would also
work.

Oops! Please transpose "latitude" and "longitude" in the above.
