WX temp chart shows only a small patch of freezing weather over N Russia, but a cool lobe extending quite a long way south from this; in week 1 over NW Europe but in week 2 further east displacing the very warm weather near the Urals (see snowmelt problem in 'Unusual weather' thread). For Britain, on the edge of the cooler weather in week 1, temps at first near norm, but a hint that some milder weather from Spain will approach the south in week 2.
GFS Op - winds going round to a brisk SW-ly under the direction of 1030mb HP over France, declining after Sat 13th as LP runs SE-wards over the Northern Isles and into the N Sea with brief N-lies to follow. By Wed 17th HP has re-asserted itself and becomes centred over Britain 1025mb, only to give way to a shallow LP from the north 1005mb Tue 23rd covering Britain, followed by a weak pressure rise.
ECM - similar to GFS though the LP Sat 13th promotes a deeper trough over Britain as it passes by. The last frame (Sat 20th) suggests that the HP may give way to a milder LP from the west, not north.
GEFS - Quite generally mild/very mild to Sun 14th, when a sudden drop to cool with very good ens agreement, followed by a few days a little below norm with moderate agreement, and from Fri 19th mean stays near norm amidst increasing disagreement (op & control cool later on). Very little rain in the S, not much more in the north after a a wet couple of days around the 14th, also bits and pieces cropping up in far NW.
