If we can't be completely sure of what happens only a few days ahead, then how anyone can be certain about what happens a few weeks from now, I have no idea.

Keeping an eye on things from down under....and here there is a good amount of snow on the moors this morning.

Just posting this from the 06z GFS op. Over many years of model watching this is the classic pre-easterly chart.

Lets see. :)

There is a reason why I suggested waiting until the 12z runs before drawing any conclusions. The 06z GFS may not be favoured but is possible.

The 06Z op is certainly looking encouraging at T+198, and has reminded us that there's a great deal of uncertainty even at just 7 or 8 days out.

I suppose we ought to bear in mind that, according to data posted here a couple of days ago, the 06Z run has been verifying least well of the four daily GFS runs. Bearing in mind that the ECM has also consistently verified better than the GFS makes me wonder whether the 06Z GFS is actually a better guide than the 0Z ECM when looking at the same future date and time. In other words, is the benefit of the GFS 06Z having access to data that's 6 hours more recent enough to outweigh the model's poorer performance?

looking at the 6GFS, the Met Office might be able to temporarily detach the omelette from their face?

Well I called that one right from the +123 chart ;)

Only one run though.....

Well if the 6Z is anywhere near the mark I will be more than happy to be proved wrong for Feb. Looks rather unlikely though!

Goes to show the depth of model volatility at the moment though.

Control not going with the op sadly, but enough uncertainty to keep us interested

not much support for the op, but a lot of GEFS have a blocking high to the east, so perhaps chances later in the month as per METO forecast
