Since this morning’s video the CFSv2 monthlies have updated but the long term solution remains the same. A nice blocking high anchored across Northern Europe with lower heights from Iberia across the Med. This supports a warmer, drier summer overall for Ireland, UK and Scandinavia, cooler and wetter across southern France, Iberia and Med. This is very similar to 2010 and 2013 which had a very similar spring to what we’ve just seen. All this coincides nicely still with my overall summer ideas.
