Rest of Europe
As forecasted now for days, we have a large temperature spread setting up next week across Europe as ridging and warmth builds north from Iberia to the UK while arctic cold drops south over Scandinavia. Expect highs into the 21-27C range early next week over the UK while temperatures may struggle to get much above […]
The Europe pattern becomes highly amplified starting this weekend and as warmth lifts north a low over Iceland will slide east, riding the northerly periphery of the northern extending UK ridge. The thermal contrast will develop a storm system that will tap colder arctic origin air and pull it south across Scandinavia while warmth builds north over the UK. […]
While a lot of focus is now on the upcoming warmth which by the way could linger through the next 7-10 days, all indicators suggest colder times ahead with a significant change in the upper pattern across the northern hemisphere to end the month.

Humberto became the Atlantic Basin’s first hurricane and fell just 3 hours shy of setting the record for the latest hurricane on record. That same system is once again catching the attention of meteorologists here in the UK and it’s northward progression over the Atlantic later this week, will have significant influence this weekend into […]
A deep area of low pressure spinning over the northeast Atlantic has brought the 2nd spell of snow to parts of Iceland and 100 mph wind gusts over the tops of the Scottish Highlands. In the wake of the deepening low, skies cleared, winds fell light and bitter cold settled over Greenland with a rapid rise in surface pressure. These conditions, all thanks […]
As forecast since way back last week, the deepest low to date has formed and continues to deepen in the incubation region made mention of in yesterday’s video. Through Saturday afternoon, winds within the cross-Atlantic jet core screamed at 190-200 mph with a region of divergence out ahead. That area of divergence where upper winds part, forces intense […]
As your well aware since August, I am going for a colder than normal October for the UK, Ireland and western Europe and while there is a largely zonal pattern at the moment and that’s likely to continue over the next week or so, there are more solid indicators of change on the way.

We’ve entered a far more active weather pattern over Northwest Europe in recent days and it’s about to get a whole lot more active through the later half of the upcoming weekend. While a series of frontal systems cross the UK yesterday, today and tomorrow, a more interesting feature is currently crossing the North Atlantic and this […]
The UK is poised for the first big autumn storm late this upcoming weekend. I cut a video earlier which provides detail but thought I would post the charts I put up. Potential blizzard conditions along with power loss for Iceland. It will be much colder early and mid next week over Ireland, UK and western Europe. […]
