    Woop! I missed this thread and the endless rollercoaster as we approach 96 hours out and the cold front stops before it reaches Ireland. And then we start all over again.


  • Registered Users Posts: 635 ✭✭✭Video


    I still have a feeling this is the year for snow... don't know why but i just gots the feels :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,180 ✭✭✭pauldry


    yeah i think it will be cold too based on ...nothing.

    Maybe climate change and all that might result in a few more cold snaps in Winter! :cool:


  • Registered Users Posts: 571 ✭✭✭gugsy


    Not even a glimmer of hope for the next 1074h atm. Hopefullly that will change.

    GFS control run , builds heights over Greenland and helps pull in cold air from the NE ...

    This is the kinda thing i'd like to be seeing :cool:


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,985 ✭✭✭BLIZZARD7


    Plenty of Nice charts in FI on today's runs- much nicer Ecm 12z than the 00z earlier and also a very nice 12z gfs parallel run with serious blocking to our north. The 12z Gem day 10 chart is a thing of beauty - someone post charts, I can't right now. Early days yet but some classic charts appearing...

    Edit: heres the Gem day 10 NH chart

    An easterly airflow could be the making of our first cold spell towards the end of the month.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,797 ✭✭✭✭hatrickpatrick


    FI on both ECM and GFS indicate serious PV disruption and slight pressure rises over Greenland:

    Not normally one to want snow, but I'd desperately love to have some in the next couple of weeks! :D

    What a crazy looking chart for November.

    Anomalies literally off the scale.

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,985 ✭✭✭BLIZZARD7


    Yes thats an amazing complete split of the polar vortex- UKMO in general agreement with the ECM as far as we can see.. We need the GFS back on board now. Very rare charts for November as you say though.

    Looks like an improvement on the 12z GFS and UKMO. Starting to come onboard


  • Registered Users Posts: 932 ✭✭✭snowstorm445


    ECM 12z is just as good as the 0z if not better! Gets us into an easterly setup within a week! :)

    Is mid November a bit early for an eastery to deliver? I would think that the continent is nowhere as cold as it would be in Jan/Feb.

    I hate this thread. All the hype in this thread over the past few years and being shot down each time.

    This year is going to be especially bad I think.

    A lot of the recent images show all that coming in from Norway and Sweden and we all know what happened the last time snow came in from that way around the 20th of November :)

    my rationale is telling me your right but lord knows us starved of snow or just even seasonal weather deserve some sort of break after the mild mush last year. is it possible? I don't know heard of same case scenario 2012 and Ecm may have bias for raising heights. I imagine it shall be total lunacy in here if all the other models come into agreement . but hand on heart we are usually wrong side of the equation or get the watered down version. but hey on a whim I reckon you will have a ramp yet !even if it tis only one decent snow day this year. cheers

    GFS 18z coming up now. Get your F5s ready...

  • Registered Users Posts: 332 ✭✭howlinwolf


    was wondering , having looked at the charts over the last few days , albeit through confused eyes , are the charts in any way consistent with the breakup of the pv over the artic or is every run/day different as in where the cold is getting pushed and by how much....seems from my very limited knowledge the charts are agreeing that there is a pv split happening but it seems very random and disorganised on every run

    Some degree of vortex disruption looks to be very likely now. What we don't know is where the colder air will spread to in the mid-latitudes following the disruption and how long until the vortex reorganizes.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,221 ✭✭✭pad199207


    12z GFS seems to push better Heights towards Greenland. Looks better then the ECM on some days

    This new GFS Parallel doesnt seem to have a clue . So inconsistent!

    UKMO is the last one now to come onboard. Or will it be right and stab us all in the back?

    To be honest, I really wouldn't be getting too excited about anything yet. I have a feeling we'll end up with a fairly short lived period of blocking with the cold air locked away to our northeast.

    Just a gut feeling, it's too early to know. But at least it's a bit of FI fun anyway.

    I think things will be more interesting when we get into December, hopefully after some good strat warmings.

    Ice has already moved in on Svalbard. Given our location, our warm sea and the necessicty for so many ingredients to be correct for snow. I think we need to first look at the cold pool to the East. We need to build up on that so that any block that forms in the Atlantic can allow cold air to filter in rapidly. If we need the block to last 4+ days, then we are talking rare occasions and clutching at straws.
    FI is nice on the eyes, but this early on in Ireland, keep dreaming :)

    For blizzards in Ireland, not only do we need the planets to be inline, we also need their moons to be inline :)

    While it doesent lead to much on this run, its nice to see a fully split vortex at day 5.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,780 ✭✭✭✭ninebeanrows


    Typhoon Nuri and that record deep Barents Sea storm may force too much energy and prevent that nice cross polar block that was being progged a few days ago.

    Only the 10th of November, so we have plenty of time for something to develop and the PV doesn't look too well organised as of yet.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,134 ✭✭✭✭maquiladora


    12Z ECM sending -12 uppers into...Texas.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,068 ✭✭✭Iancar29


    I like the look of the GEM , yes its the GEM but sure why not let it have a shot at things ha.

    Cold pool feeding into Scandinavia and pressure building over Greenland where i would like to see it setting up shop there to give a better chance of an easterly feed then a few days later for us.

    My own explanation is save and retire to Spain or Portugal as the Atlantic looks to be in charge for North west Europe, which is normal fair and the weather in Iberia looks decent...normal fair too.
