    You posted a chart from 2010 :confused:

    Look above that one... :rolleyes:

    FI seems to trend towards an outbreak of cold from the north rather than the east. RTÉ wont care since it will just be the northwest getting the snow if that were the case :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 117 ✭✭srocliffe


    That's the first even remotely decent chart in a while in FI, maybe a trend, or more likely it will be gone again on the next run.

    Type of setup wont give snow on low lying areas but its nice to see . :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,234 ✭✭✭thetonynator


    3 of 20 perturbations the best we can do, at 384 hours?!

    Thats taking FI too far . . .:P

    It has to start somewhere ,

    Last year was somewhat similar , nothing on the charts then bang out of nowhere in it came.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,548 ✭✭✭Harps


    0z GFS has thrown up some really interesting developments from 192h onwards this morning, an easterly flow across the north Atlantic and a high building over Greenland eventually dragging down some cold air. Looks very similar to last Novembers outcome :)

    Yep, very depths of FI showing an interesting setup. Bordering on the timeframe for snow now...

    Rtavn3841.png

    Interesting signs on both GFS and ECM of an Atlantic/GL HP starting an easterly setup...

    Will people please save the chart and then upload it from their computer rather than linking to the image on meteociel etc. which just get updated and it gets very confusing. For example if you look baove this morning those charts showed an nice easterly now just typical atlantic zonality.

    Earlier on that showed an easterly. Oh how wished people would stop just linking charts :mad:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,548 ✭✭✭Harps


    Here we are

    gfs-2011110400-0-372_rqf5.png

    Nothing spectacular on that chart from our point of view but its more the fact that there's a high over Greenland and an easterly extending as far as Newfoundland!

    A largely similar set up on the 12z GFS

    gfs-0-384_bqw3.png

    Gone again now but its the first sign of a proper cold spell at least

    Edit: Turns out its not gone! Was looking at the 6z thinking it was the 12z, a high building to our north around the 12th hopefully

    It's a game of spot the difference!

    Ok, there are a fair few differences, but a similar general set-up:pac:

    From here. http://meteociel.fr/ Click on GFS Europe, then when the page loads up you can choose GEFS ensembles near the top. From there you can go through each individual run.

    Encouraging signs. Hope its the start of a trend.

    Downgrade on the 06z run but we all know that could change again on the 12z. The joys of model watching this time of year ;)

    In fairness, its a big change, the GFS is showing a trend of a cold outbreak towards the end of the month. The details may change with every run, but the trend is there. Up til now we've been seeing atlantic zonality the whole way out.

    True your right about the trend has being showing a lot, would be nice to see a lot deeper cold over europe, but early days yet

    Current forecasts are putting a lot of snow into western russia and maybe parts of eastern europe over the next week, so hopefully we'll have a decent cold pool there to tap into.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,461 ✭✭✭Musicman2000


    This was posted over in Netweather its still low res ECMFW, but might be a sign:) most of us can only see out the 240+

    Morning all...

    Well I hold good news, well depending on your terminology of good news that is. I've looked at the latest EC 32 day info this morning and the signal for a pattern change later in November and into early December is still there and in a big way!

    Up to the middle of month high pressure persists to the E and this maintains relatively mild conditions, driest in the E, wettest in the W etc. However, beyond mid-month what the model is signalling is for high pressure to migrate and there is then the development of a +ve pressure anom to the N or NW of the UK during the final week of November and into early December, as low pressure becomes dominant to the S. In essence the final week of the 32 day forecast is signalling a pattern similar to that of last year with E or NE'lies across the UK and there is a dramatic drop in temperature forecast during the final quarter of the forecast period.

    Clearly I put emphasis on this model signalling a potential pattern change this time last week and whilst any longer term model is open to change, I do have quite a decent liking to this model as it has picked up trends at times throughout this year weeks in advance. Clearly this post will be fascinating to read and come back to in around 3 weeks time to see what is actually on the horizon for the end of November, but IF this model is picking up this pattern change correctly then it would seem that another dramatic turn-around to something far more wintry is likely towards the end of November onwards...

    Time will tell!...

    Looking at the 06Z GFS ensembles, the average 850 temp drops down closer to the 0 degree mark after the middle of the month or so.

    So there are hints there in FI of a gradual change on the cards but nothing very dramatic or consistent yet.

    Early days anyway.

    12Z GFS in FI....nothing interesting there at all I'm afraid!


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


    Quick look at the ensembles, #7 is really nice.

    Very very premature. Wait til you're looking at charts with December dates under 144 hrs and then get excited!
