    Gfs 06z falling into line with ECM 0z and ensembles. The usual caveats apply of course. Amazing run though all the same :)

    Latest ECM currently rolling out and still looking good for an Easterly to develop next week.

    Looking really good indeed but that ecm has lead us down the garden path many a time before.....Not getting excited yet...Once bitten twice shy and all that larksmile.png

    Forgive my ignorance but the ECM is showing the lines of pressure 7 days out to be lower than the pressure around Ireland. Would that suggest cold air but little or no cloud/precip given the relative high pressure surrounding us?

    Snow for all.

    Surely it's too good to be true, but nice to look at all the same

    The Easterly\Extended cold snap looks to have moved back west, could change again. Would think some chances of something, just not as strong.

    Moved east you mean
    It might be back later;)

    Latest GFS shows that the cold that had been looking like moving back east is showing as moving west again towards us, in the latest runs.

    It's both and neither, in varying degrees of probability until nearer to the time!

    Joe Bastardi is rather confident.

    He thinks it will be like 2013.
    That was very cold but frosty, the countryside was burnt by frost, maybe we get snow this time which would be better.

    He will eventually get lucky and get it right. Prone to hypebole and attention seeking

    Another interesting fi chart. Possible height rises in Greenland due to the pv moving east.
    There is certainly no sign of raging zonality at the moment from any of the models, but after Friday we will be on the mild side for several days, while England experiences a cool and dry continental feed.
    I think it's still very much game on for a more sustained colder outbreak


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,778 ✭✭✭✭ninebeanrows


    The EC 12 Op is cheeky!!

    Would be probably colder than the coldest 0z EC Ensemble! Who would be a Forecaster

    Beast from the East is back ON. Another super ECM 12z run rolling out now. Charts to follow

    Look at the low pressure in Iberia, surely the high can only go one direction from there, if the ECM is correct.

    Somewhere Gerry Murhpy's face is contorting with horror as he contemplates his next tv forecast after seeing the latest ECM :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 99 ✭✭Deatr


    Given that the pressure is high am I right in thinking that there won't be any snow with this just cold and frosty? If it comes off!

    Also look at the diving low in the Atlantic,heading for the Med?

    Pressure is a bit high for my liking, but, as somebody said yesterday, get the cold here first and then worry about snow!

    Yes that chart is dry but 2 days later @240hrs it's showing possible snowmageddon!

    Indeed it is! Nothing short of full blowen Blizzard conditions. If it did happen (not likely) 1947 setup. Epic.

    I'll take that! :)

    Went back over my records of November/December 2010...it was pretty much dry once pressure was over 1025.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,141 ✭✭✭Rebelbrowser


    If it wasnt for the brief mild interlude on Sunday, snow falling tomorrow would hang around on north facing surfaces for quite a while....


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,544 ✭✭✭✭sryanbruen


    Yeah, once I hit 1028mb on December 3, 2010, it was bone dry with no snowfall again 'til 4 days later, December 7 when pressure dropped back down to 1015mb.

    EDIT: Oops sorry didn't notice this was the FI Charts thread.


  • Registered Users Posts: 99 ✭✭Deatr


    Thanks gents!! I'm off to Swedish Lapland on Monday with work hopefully I'll bring something back with me on Wednesday.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,317 ✭✭✭PokeHerKing


    T minus how many hours are we at if the beasterly confirms lads? NW is too hard to follow, charts just constantly get pushed back to 240+.. are we anywhere near a realistic time yet?

    Couple of points
    Easterlies don't need as low uppers as they travel over much more land than sea
    Consequently they can have very low dew points with the surface air they bring in
    This is type of already frozen conditions our easterly will be traveling over
