    The EC mean 850 hPa temp profile out to day 10. Seems to be hinting at an increasingly tight thermal gradient developing in western Atlantic. If it continues this theme, it sure could be a potentially interesting run up to Christmas.

    Very similar to Christmas week of 2013?

    The two storms of the 23rd and 27th of that year

    Yes the ECMWF shows a 210-kt jet coming off New Foundling later in the week so that is bound to latch onto something and possibly give a storm that is not yet showing up on the models. I notice too a very zonal jet pattern for a while too, which may stir the polar vortex tank a bit give a very brief cold outbreak.

    Impossible to say at this point, but looking at the anomaly version of the same chart above, there does look to be a grim potential.

    Its almost funny at this stage, after winters 13/14 and 14/15 we thought it couldn't get any worse but it is!! :D
    I would bet my gaff that this winter is going to be dominated by a euro high.

    Comes charging through on the 23rd/24th. Quite a few ensembles seem to be showing a stormy setup 7 to 10 days out.

    Are there any worth showing? :pac:

    Both 12Z GEM and GFS showing a potential storm on the 23rd, but less developed on this GFS op run. Still impressive to see two models with something similar at that range.

    gfs-0-204.png?12

    GEM also has another deepening low approaching from the southwest on the 24th at the end of the run.

    Which eejit was it who predicted a ridiculously stormy winter on account of the record El Nino?
    I'm holding them INDIRECTLY responsible for the sh!te it looks like we'll have to put up with. :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,576 ✭✭✭patneve2


    Looking very poor for any prospects of decent cold - arctic oscillation index forecast to hit +5 in just over a week. http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/precip/CWlink/daily_ao_index/ao_index_ensm.shtml


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


    A few runs have been showing HP building up towards Scandi, if it locks into place, things would start to get interesting into the new year!

    does it get any more zonal than this - a westerly all the way from Newfoundland to Mongolia. Its not even depressing anymore. its just laughable :D

    Not the first time we've seen hints of stormy conditions around the 22nd.

    Aye circulating around one of the biggest expanses of polar vortices I've seen in a long time
    The jetstream is barrelling into the best area possible (us :() to support those vortices and keep them in there


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


    Polar vortex comes to play on the 12z ... :pac:
