There you go. An 80% chance of a change by mid-Jan. Chances of some lowland snow showers further south, eh? Perhaps not in Dawlish 😀.

I'm surprised you have missed the opportunity over the last few weeks to
predict unrelenting mild & wet conditions. Surely you would have
considered the chances to have been 80% on many occasisons?

And now you stick your head abouve the parapet with a major type change!

I just couldn't be bothered, Col. I've said I was looking for a change. Many times in the past, I could have boosted my 80% average success, by forecasting on a daily basis, but I always leave it at least 3 days. It was so obvious a change was not coming (implied by me still looking for it and ignoring the suggested model change around the start of the New Year), that I just didn't think a forecast was needed. Like I said, I was looking for the change.

But, around 240 hours for your original 240 hours forecast there was a a marked change. The HP just to the S-SE collapsed, and depressions racing off NW Scotland instead crossed the centre of the UK. So you missed that change.. Big, big change in barometric pressure in the south.

Perhaps you've not got a barometer, or spotted what's been happening in eastern Scotland? Even here in Cornwall a change from dull conditions with patchy light rain, to much more active frontal systems and returning polar maritime air.

Taking forecasting to a new level.

forecasting on a daily basis, but I always leave it at least 3 days.
Or, in fact, reduced self claimed 80% success, you need to start thinking
about maths as well as grammar. Anyway, you always leave at least 3 days
between forecasts, which is true. Could you remind us how many there were
in total in 2015?

It was so obvious a change was not coming (implied by me still looking for
it and ignoring the suggested model change around the start of the New
Year), that I just didn't think a forecast was needed. Like I said, I was

I didn't think a forecast was needed. Correct, nor is it now. Presumably
all other forecasters will stop forecasting now, as we all know it's going
to rain.

Such arrogance.


What a complete mess of a news post. No quoting, no separators, no idea who
said what, hopeless.

The change to colder by the 15th is looking very probably now. Indeed if the models intensify and extend the possible Omega block suggested ATM, there's a chance of this colder spell lasting.

However, there's always; 'northerlies ain't what they used to be', to put a possible dampener on proceedings!

Very probable; in fact a high probability, probably.

Models wishing to expunge the model possibility of the development of an omega block and extended cold and to replace it with a return to zonal conditions soon after mid Jan. Watching for that possible change.

No agreement this evening for sure! 😀
