Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue.

I thought predictions, suggestions, opinions, were about sticking one's neck out so to speak, and exactly what this forum is for. But those stats are interesting!
You can stick you neck out but not too far or you run the risk of getting it cut in half by the pitchfork welding locals!

Appears to be a good start to the snow cover over Siberia this year! More of the same an we could have a nice pool of cold to the East and hopefully over Sandi should snow cover the area early this year!

I am still going for a 2011 Winter for this year but this if from a Russian Paper.
It could be the Russian Daily Mail for all I know.
Europe could see coldest winter in 100 years

Knowing our luck we will only get sizzle and the rest of Europe will be white.
Edit also from kildareweather.comThis week will be unseasonably mild. I won't use the word warm as i think mild better sums up the weather.
Most days will see some cloud but some good sunshine to be had everywhere in Kildare.
So far it looks good up until next weekend but lots of uncertainty beyond next sunday.
If this weather pattern establishes itself over Ireland/Europe it could actually lead to a very cold winter and is a known as a blocking pattern whereby the jetstream stays well to the south over Spain and puts us on the cold side of the system.
No point talking about winter just yet as lots can happen between now and then so just enjoy the weather while it lasts.0 -

That sounds familiar...
Coldest winter in 100 years on way (From last year....heh)0 -

You couldn't be further from the truth.
Statistically 2009/10 winters happen more often. It's just since records began we have had unusually mild winters.
Let me draw your attention to some cave art found in Cavan of all places. The art work is a bit crude. But you can make out the details.
This one dates back to 5,500bc, you can see the Cavan mountains in there. Scientists believe we had so much snow, the weight flattened the mountains. Science doesn't lie.
And this one here which dates back to 4,500bc
Look at this poor fellow, frozen to death. Cavemen knew the dangers, this guy was most likely homeless cave man. At least he went out with a smile. No doubt enjoying the very thing that killed him.
So people who come in here predicting no extreme snow event. Take your informed educated prediction some where else.

Enjoy There's even a few clips from Ireland
Ha I know it is bad but I would love to see this type of weather. Most of the cars slipping looks like they are in residential areas I just hope the main roads would be better.
MENTAL NOTE park in driveway if we do get heavy snow after seeing those cars and knowing my neighbours.0 -

Exacta Weather updated the winter forcast (Sorry if it was already posted) and this weekend forcast as wellThe coming days will bring some quite extensive cloud cover for many parts of the country, although some brighter spells will develop in parts to the south and east of the country.
There will also be some periods of fine rain and showers developing in places, especially in parts to the far north and west of the country. As we head into the weekend, a surge of thunderstorm activity will initially break out across parts of the south, in particular, in parts of the south-west and Wales, before spreading northwards to other parts of the country. The intensity of the storms and expected rainfall may also bring the risk of some surface or flash-flooding in places.
The heavy rain will also be accompanied by some strong winds throughout this weekend, especially in coastal areas to the south of the country. Areas to the north are likely to see the best of any drier and brighter conditions developing under variable cloud cover.
The unsettled theme and further periods of rain and strong winds will also continue into next week and the start of October, with the best of any drier and brighter spells developing in parts to the east of the country. It will also feel quite warm at times for the start of October, especially in parts of southern and eastern England.
However, it is likely to turn progressively cooler for most as we advance throughout October, especially towards the end of the month and into the start of November.
This will bring the risk of some significant snow across higher ground in parts of the north for this part of the forecasting period.
There is also the additional risk of some snow to lower levels of the country in this part of the forecasting period and into the early part of November, some parts of the south may even see some snow falling in places for the second consecutive year in October and the early part of November.
Widespread frosts and some dense fog patches are also to be expected for this period too.
There is also likely to be some further periods of wet and stormy weather conditions for the British Isles in October and November, which will also be accompanied by some very strong and potentially damaging winds at times, in particular, throughout October.
Stormy October followed by a cold and maybe snow november , sounds too perfect , My fingers are crossed for this 0 -
