OK, a crazy busy day at work meant I've not been able to check things as I like - but the latest weather run uses the word TORRENTIAL.

WTF????

I think the Weather Gods saw our joyous use of pictures in a bad light!

[Ponyegg]

Quick, sacrifice a goat or a Frenchman or something.

[formed a band]

what has happened? i come up with a weather model that brings loads of sun. then i pop to a meeting and i come home, there was even talk of some sort of local hero telling us how dry it will be and all of a sudden there are torrential frenchmen everywhere

[scaryclaireyfairy]

JACKONE update

So 2 charts. 1 amazing. 1 terrible. And they're ECMs.

So really f**king clear then. So frustrating.

Need the next one to agree with the 00z.

Another scorching hot day here today(Reading). Anyone here else getting worried that the 'nice weather' might have 'come it's cocoa' too early?

[formed a band]

how ia it so fickle?

[scorp]

As has been pointed out before the GFS is up and down like a bride's nighty, as long as the other models stick to today's earlier pattern we can still be fairly confident. This could well be an outlier!

[Dav0s]

are these french style forecasts you speak of due to the 12z run or the 18z run?

[nellyt66]

Jackone has changed his forecast and it doesn't look finished yet. See JACKONE

GFS is done, not ECM. We knew from earlier that GFS had gone all French again.

[Conrax]

They just said on point's west news that the weather is looking like it will be better next week than what it is now right through the festival, so that's a good sign, obviously means nowt really i know but hey any good news is welcome.

[jezzer]

Jackone's summary so far, more to follow...

Provisional summary awaiting ECM 12HZ, a generally good summary this evening with 3 of the 4 outputs going for mostly settled conditions, with the GFS 12Hz being much worse. However on a down side, there isn't that much difference synoptically between the GFS 12Hz and the others.

[gibbo13]

so when is the ecm12hz out?

am i right in thinking at present were german, with a french grandad???

[nellyt66]

Update now finished except for the ECM 12Hz ... Jackone

I'm none the wiser to be honest.

so

and

[jezzer]

Not sure when ECM is out, hope soon, not sure if I'll be able to sleep tonight! This isn't good for the nerves

[4AssedMonkey]

I reckon the 12Hz is a rogue. Not having it AT ALL. The 4assedmonkey verdict remains

Come on you barsteward sun and BURN MEEEEE!

[Aragorn]

the 12z GFS operational run was out on its own for some of that run so I wouldn't pay too much attention to it
