Rest of Europe
Well it certainly doesn’t appear that cold will make it to the western flank of Europe (south of Scand) this week as Atlantic low pressure appears too dominant. I know back last week and up till Saturday, I believed the models would flip back to what they had originally with cold making it to Ireland but […]
The very air mass which dove south into the United States from the wastes of the arctic last weekend into early week, has crossed the North Atlantic and brought snow, freezing rain and ice to parts of Scotland this morning in it’s far weakened state. A direct discharge of intense Siberian/Arctic air crossed the pole and […]
Well it’s looking more or less a lock now that winter will finally come to the UK next week! Without any stubborn ridge near the Azores, there’s nothing to stop a cold easterly flow from reaching the UK and N Atlantic ridging, as anticipated, appears to stay far enough to our west, meaning the cold reaches the UK. On […]
The most recent monster Atlantic storm has been responsible for causing a lot of damage to coastal Ireland and the UK with it’s massive swells caused by long fetch WSW gales which have ‘built up’ the spell as it approached shores. Huge waves slamming sea waves have been known to kick up spray towering over 100 feet. […]
A lot can be said for the bitter cold shivering North America while Britain suffers it’s worst spell of storminess since the 1800s, is there a link? Yes. Blame the vast thermal gradient over North America for sending a 190-230 mph jet stream across the Atlantic and with a ridge bringing mild to much of […]
The latest Atlantic low brought a fresh wave of trouble with yet more damaging winds, flooding rains, hail as well as thunder and lightning. Unfortunately this system as it pushed in from the southwest, drove a tidal storm surge which flooded many promenade’s from Devon to Ayrshire. Here’s a stunning high res satellite image captured by […]
We have endured one heck of a battering over the past 3-5 weeks with simply one storm after another and now, the land is struggling to cope with the amount of water. Unfortunately more nasty weather is looming night, tomorrow and through the weekend with more deep, sprawling lows sweeping more flooding rains and gales […]
It may seen like a long time coming but right on schedule, the operational models are now picking up on what the CFSv2 has shown since before Christmas, a Greenland to Scandinavia block by the end of day 10 or around Jan 10th. This would coincide nicely with the 10mb strat warming over Asia and the stretching and […]
