Wet and windy here, but much too mild for any white stuff.

Express reporting the worst storm in a century. Good grief.

They must be running out of superlatives to describe the next weather disaster. There can't be a single individual left who actually believes their bullshit anymore.

Based on my Facebook newsfeed there are still a few! Total idiots.

I'm calling a green Xmas guys. Despite hints from pro forecasters to suggest a pattern change is in the offing I can see nothing in any of the output to suggest this. I'd suggest that we'll be in this pattern until after Xmas now, with low pressures zipping through, so wind and rain, followed by a showery day and then a possible frost, repeat.

Possibly the dominant Azores High might move closer to us, dampening down the rainfall (at least down here) but overall it's average to cool, but never cold for very long.

I hope I'm wrong, and there still is time for a change, but it'll need to start to show itself soon to effect a change by Xmas.

Good news.

It is looking more and more like a repeat of last Winter. The Jet stream is in a similar position, ie the worst possible place for any cold weather with atlantic systems starting to rush in, last night, thurs night and then 1 every 3 days for 3 months. I doubt there will be a single flake of snow again this winter. Windy,wet,mild, average 10C by day

Perhaps the thread should be renamed to 'No More Snow Ever'

NSC proving global warming, what more proof do you need

Why don't they just market it as "anywhere in the ground for a pound" ?

Ah, welcome back. I don't share your pessimism, as the setup this winter is already very different synoptically from last, where High Pressure was anchored over Europe, ensuring a continual chain of SW winds. This year the high is more mid-Atlantic allow colder air at times, and frost, which we saw none of last winter.

I am still hopeful of a more blocked outlook to arise later; the question is, how much later?

As an aside to my earlier post - as soon as I posted that a few of the 6Z GFS ensemble members produced a more interesting outlook near Christmas - but it's still very unlikely. IF a trend develops, then maybe I'll review my forecast.

Give it up PL. That way you won't be disappointed. This winter is a write off

I was feeling dispondent, but now you're backing a no show I am somewhat happier

My thoughts exactly. A great day for snow lovers everywhere.

Im not sure what the minimum is but they averaged £8.50 per head when they did this ladt season .to keep in line with the thread it was a bit chilly .

Yup, another 20 years like this before a couple more snowy winters I reckon.

Why this craving for snow?

I hate snow.
