Yes nice GFS 12z. GFS in particular starting to pick up significant HLB as we head into late November. Is it onto something?
GFS has evolved a northerly flow around 17-18th on several runs in recent days, always based on a retrogressing high pressure, moving WNW into mid-Atlantic and setting up a block and driving energy south into Scandinavia. To be honest I’ve not seen much evidence of HLB?
The 12z brews up a pretty intensive low pressure over Gibraltar which just drifts slowly towards the French/Italian coast. With low pressure in the Med we’re not going to see high pressure building to our south, so it’s hard to see an early route back to mild conditions, other than from less cold air toppling in from the NW.
