    All seems to be reliant on the development of a shortwave at the southern tip of Greenland if I'm seeing things right, if it develops it pushes the high over us, if not then the other shortwave slides down its eastern flank and heights can build north as happens on the ECMWF run

    Thanks for the explanation, I was wondering what was going on there.

    If we begin to see heights build more around Iceland and Greenland we will be!

    There is a trend to weaken that shortwave. Maybe with the 00z having more new data it will take an even bigger step?

    Tis a warm current we get. Keeps alot of the ports in Northern Europe from freezing.

    From my time swimming down at the half Moon on the South Wall. The sea although cooler can still be as pleasant as summer. Your balls freeze when you get out.

    Why is the Atlantic so strong though?

    I'd imagine it isn't a particularly warm body of water so where does all its energy come from?

    Is it simply the sheer size of the ocean to our West that gives it all the energy?

    Here is a tip for new people

    Yellow Further West GOOD
    Yellow Further East Bad

    Yellow Go up to Greenland/Iceland Good
    Blue come from Greenland/Iceland Bad

    I reckon we have very limited chances of significant snowfall in Ireland,even the east coast will struggle .

    Some potential for us I think as well, particularly if you live in the East! Much better charts so far! Of course the morning charts are often notorious for their downgrades so we shall see.

    from an imby perspective, if the current charts verify,, it looks good for me next Tuesday, but still would prefer to see epic snowfall at home.

    We need to be able to build high pressure north though. Otherwise it just delays the Atlantic. Need blocking.
