United Kingdom & Ireland
If you read yesterday’s post which looks in detail at our rather complex pattern over the next 7 days then you’ll have noticed I made mention about the possibility of seeing very heavy rain working up from the Azores into Southern England and Wales during Sunday. If you haven’t, take a look as it gives […]
It would appear that autumn is well and truely here as you only had to go outside to feel that chill in the air over the past few days. The pattern has changed and looks set to stay that way with no warmth through at least the remainder of September. While glancing at the models this afternoon, there is […]
Just about to shoot out the door but wanted to show you this. Check out both North America and Europe for the next several days.. Here’s what the ECMWF has for North America through next week! Brrr Of course what stands out is the amplification indicative of the negative NAO and the amount of early […]
Today was similar to yesterday with some heavy, thundery showers rattling into northern and western areas of Scotland though much less widespread compared to yesterday. Some of those showers were reportedly containing a mix of rain, sleet and snow and not just to high levels up over the Northwest Highlands, no real surprise given how cold […]
The heavy, stinging showers of today should ease through tonight with some lingering in places but with a flow drawing increasingly cooler air down from the NW, under those clear skies, it will feel cold tonight. Even in those passing showers, temperatures may hover at only 5 or 6C with sleet or snow falling over […]
There’s a heck of an early season cold period coming over the next 2 weeks for a large chunk of the US, east of the Rockies and for Europe, You’ve been warned! Given it’s still only mid-September, the pattern evolving is one of great interest both the NAO and AO going into the tank. Models have been […]
I thought I would cover a little on the warm AMO that we’re seeing and just how strong it has become. This is a key driver in our weather these days not just locally surrounding the basin itself but globally. This warm AMO is controlling or at least is having a strong influence on many […]
If the pattern that’s evolving next week was to be 3 months from now, I would have had plenty of snow and cold in the forecast for the UK, unfortunately it’s only mid-Sept BUT we are likely to see our first ‘cold’ days with highs struggling in Scotland, Northern England and a large parts of Ireland to only […]
We have a very interesting pattern is evolving across the Northern Hemisphere over the next 2-3 weeks starting early next week as the latest ensembles suggest a significant tanking in both the NAO and AO. This follows a couple of weeks of positive. In the chart above, this shows the level of blocking expected and you can clearly see this […]
Thought I would do a brief post just to clarify how strong I think winds will be overnight tonight. While not a big deal really south of Cumbria with a stiff breeze blowing for most, it should be a rather windy old night throughout Scotland and across the northern half of Northern Ireland and the Donegal areas […]
