Quoted from Joe Bastardis blog on Accuweather...

http://www.accuweather.com/ukie/bastardi-europe-blog.asp?partner=accuweather

SATURDAY 5 PM
WINTER ON THE HORIZON DEC 15-25...BACKS IN FROM THE EAST.


While the next 7-10 days are relatively tranquil as the extreme rainfall of November has relaxed and there is not alot of cold in the pattern..right now. But the hounds of winter are gathering and whether this is the start of the pattern that I am looking for mid and late winter, or just a prelim glimpse, the threat of major eastern and central Euro cold, that can develop west with time, is on the horizon.


While the ridge is over western Europe overall the next 5 days, it will reposition itself northwest to over Greenland and iceland between the 15th and 20th. This will mean pressures build over Scandinavia and just in time for the Christmas season large amounts of cold air will spread back south and west through Europe.

Again, this is in line with ideas in the winter forecast, that we would see more than normal blocking and with it, the threat of cold working back to the west. Such a pattern while still 10 days or more away could last right through the New Years and supply much of europe, though centered in the east... with a cold holiday season.

thanks for reading, ciao for now ****


Maybe this yucky wet Atlantic weather we have will break and we'll get some seasonally cold weather?
