    Is eastern Europe definitely going to get a very cold period even if Ireland escapes it?

    Absolutely.

    That’s not going to happen
    I’d have my doubts about modeling that’s prone to spurts of super exaggeration

    Whilst it is a bit far out of this world, I wouldn’t totally doubt it given the record breaking reversed zonal winds that have never gone as extreme or as persistent than this.

    I have bad feelings about the ECM 12z.

    Arpege 06z better than its 00z run at +72 hrs, better ridging North and a more south-north WAA angle. Small but important differences.

    If it does, what's the odds the GFS will change for the worse then. Trolls all of them.

    A week today it has temperatures below freezing from south Dublin,all of Wicklow Wexford Carlow Waterford and east Kildare at 1pm in the day under a stiff easterly wind
    -1 to -3 widely at that time of the day in Wicklow and Wexford

    Baltic would be an understatement

    Yeah, just look at this thread as an example - which I had never seen a point of being made in the first place at the time.

    Ah I think it was necessary. No point clogging up the winter thread with such a large amount of discussion, even 22 pages is alot.

    Large amount of discussion of false hype when it was going to be normal frosts all along. The zonal winds were far too strong. Stratosphere was too cold. NAO was positive.

    I think we will be safe by Wednesday morning runs if this continues to grow in support, some really serious cold and snow incoming if the GFS/ICON/GEM 12z's are right - on par with the coldest days of 2010 and possibly feeling colder with extreme wind chill.

    12z ECM and every run tomorrow to get out of the way first- don't expect plain sailing...

    I think this is going to happen
    But please no special thread for it until Friday because that’s when it’s going to be sub 120 and probably at 96 hrs
    We’ll have more clarity on what to expect and better guesses at impacts
    I suspect it will be a very long thread and one of quite a few

    About right. If it's showing at 48 hours then start a thread about it. If anyone starts a thread before then it should be wiped:p
