I think the mean chart at T+384 says it all.
Quite remarkable.
At the very least it does look like we're going to get higher pressure close by as we move into February - it'll be nice to see the sun again, as well as have some frost potential! Of course, with even a sniff of a continental feed the air will dry out and with lower dewpoints the prospect of frost lingering in the shade all day comes along... the next best thing to snow, IMO.
(Edit: I also notice the sun's quietened down, coninciding with an increased switch to blocking in the ensembles. I wonder if sunspots really do have the effect of energising the jet... can't see how, but it's amazing how often a sudden surge in sunspots coincides with the models ramping up the jet!)
