Depressing model viewing this morning to say the least.

Doesn't seem long ago Mr Keeling was predicting a good end to March? Reality up here on the Pennines, is it is the worst end to March I have ever known.

Similar view here in North Durham Pennines. The even hint of milder weather has gone from the forecasters now. We are defiantly in "unchartered waters" here, grass and crops are non existent , and silage supplies diminishing at an alarming rate!!

So long as the change isnt the start of "localised torrential downpours".

On the ten day ECMWF chart 7th of April has warm air flowing our way now.... Don't believe it just yet though!

As long as they are "localised" on someone else.

[Bruce Almighty]

How's it looking for the midlands wobs ?
Do you think heavy rain will stay over the south & west ?

 

[grumpy]

no it's not.

well I was correct its still been snowing for the last 2 days,but im in a micro climate how do forecasts cover them?

 

[wobs]

They cant forecast them and to mind will never be able to.thats where PWS come into action,if of good quality and correctly situated a pattern will emerge regards microclimate.
By the way you weren't correct.
you said "foot of snow fer the last 3 weeks and forecast is for the same for next month,"
It isn't and never has been forecast simple as that really.

no its forecast for my area a cold spell to last for another monthbut how they can tell im doubt full of.

 

[wobs]

the foot of snow for 3 weeks and the same for next month was the confusion.
