Hi fellow snow fans.
This is an invite to join the action this winter on www.theweatheroutlook.com Many of the more reputable organisations are forecasting a cold winter including Brian Gaze of the Weatheroutlook. So this could be an exciting time to join! Neil does not need to apply (NGUK!) |

I can't quite put my finger on it, though... Adrian -- Adrian Shaw ais@ Adran Cyfrifiadureg, Prifysgol Cymru, aber. Aberystwyth, Ceredigion, Cymru ac. http://users.aber.ac.uk/ais uk |

![]() ================================================== ================== This posting expresses the personal view and opinions of the author. Something which everyone on this planet should be able to do. ================================================== ================== Brian Gaze's winter forecast is sadly going wrong already when he predicted a settled first half of December. " December Often quiet and dry conditions are expected to persist through much of the first half of the month with temperatures remaining close to the average for most of the time. The second half of the month is likely to bring a notable change to more unsettled conditions at first, but then a significant outbreak of wintry weather bringing widespread and sharp frosts, and also a significant risk of snow for many areas, although the north and east of the UK look to be at the highest risk. We think the cold snap is most likely to occur shortly before Christmas. For the month as a whole temperatures are expected to be about 0.5C above the Central England Temperature (CET) average. Precipitation levels are likely to be generally below average. " All models are now going for a quick return to zonality and generally mild and wet and potential stormy conditions. The *most* reputable forecasting organization in this country (ie the Met Office) is predicting another mild winter overall. I'm a great snow fan and a member of the TWO forum, but I just get tired and bored with the seemingly endless "snow and cold weather love-ins", usually at T+168 or greater range. I prefer nowadays to wait and see what happens and when it does snow to actually go outside and enjoy it ! It seems rather pointless to me to wish one's life away waiting for that elusive severe winter. But there you go, that's just me.

To start of with the head rules. Don't be silly it says we all know England won't win/ there won't be any severe weather. Then a few charts pop up/ England play a good game. Hmmm the brain thinks. Stay calm Another few charts pop up/England's draw looks good. Heart starts to take charge. Maybe this time. Head butts in. Calm down it screams. Now it's T+48. The charts are great/ England are in the quarter finals. This is is. This is what we've been waiting for. Yipppeeee!!! Result is England get beaten on penalties/zonal weather crops up at T+24!!

This is an invite to join the action this winter on www.theweatheroutlook.com Hi Matty - I love the enthusiasm of posters in that forum and I make the odd (in both senses:-)) contribution, but web based forums are just too slow for me. Additionally, I make enough typos here *with* a spell checker, so goodness knows what my words would look like without such an aid. Cue Colin:-) Many of the more reputable organisations are forecasting a cold winter including Brian Gaze of the Weatheroutlook. So this could be an exciting time to join! I can only smile at those sentences. Will sums up my feelings about such forecasts. When, next week, there is a 130kn jet heading our way, with possibly vicious lows over or near us, I see next week as being far from the calm start to December I see mentioned elsewhe-) -- Mike 55.13°N 6.69°W Coleraine posted to uk.sci.weather 01/12/2004 21:40:20 UTC |
