Your Winter Forecast 2012/2013.

This Winter forecast I stress is entirely my own thoughts and not influenced by any outside source.
HEADLINE.
Cold to very cold conditions generally throughout this winter,Stormy at times, picticulary for Southern Britain, flooding issues are still likely,and generally above average snowfall. Milder weather at times likely but short lived.
DECEMBER.
This month will often see airmases sourced from the Artic move south to cover the Uk for most of this month,with limited milder spells in to SouthWest Britain. Snow is likely to be disruptive in places and even the South of the Uk could well see snow with perhaps stormy winds with low pressure moving North or NorthEast.
JANUARY
2013 Looks to start off cold and wintry, but this month looks like Northerly to Northwesterly winds will be more common place, so Scotland and Northern England and North Wales bearing the brunt of any significant snowfall whilst South East Britain could well see some very cold frosty weather with subzero or"ice days" and see less of any significant snow but not exclusively. January is likely to see the coldest month overall of the Winter months.
FEBRUARY.
High pressure is likely to establish itself over Scandinavia, so frequent Easterly outbreaks look likely to be more common. The North and East of the Uk look like seeing the driest of the weather but with snow showers likely, but low pressure is likely to move up from the SouthWest at times bringing the threat of snowstorms and flooding rain as the West turns briefly milder. Overall temperatures colder for Eastern Britain a little milder for Western Britain at times but overall still average temperatures or below for all.
KEY THOUGHTS SUMMERY.
*Generally below average temperatures for all,but all areas at times will see some short lived mider spells.
**Above average stormy spell especially for Southern Britain picticularly during December and February
***Precipitation including snowfall above average ,although Eastern Britain may well see average or below precipitation during February.
***Disrupted or Buckled Jet stream leading to some notable severe weather this Winter,which computer models will not pick upon until very near the time.
****Computer models will often underestimate severe weather even in a so called "Reliable timeframe"

Your Weekend Forecast....

Evening folks. Some dire weather this last week, and unfortunately more to come this weekend. A respite tonight as skies will become clear and Jack Frost will make an appearance. Lows on Saturday morning down to minus1/30 f, so watch out for icy surfaces on untreated roads and pavements. Perhaps some mist and fog first thing, but this will soon clear to leave a dry morning, but with increasing cloud and breeze. Rain moving in during the afternoon and this gets heavier and more persistent during the evening and first part of the overnight period. A cold feeling day. Overall, an inch of rain looks likely so certainly more renewed flooding problems are likely during Sunday. If youre concerned please go to  http://www.enviromentagency.com  to check river levels. A brief respite on Sunday morning and early afternoon but more rain moving in later on Sunday and into Monday.Anyway whatever youre doing have a good weekend, stay safe, and later next week ,we may be using the [S] word! Ian.

The River Severn is likely to see some of the worst of the Flooding as Heavy rain will also effect Wales during this time. The enviroment agency is worth keeping up with.

An Early Weekend Forecast!


Evening Folks , and an early and quick update for the weekend. Both Saturday and Sunday both have a windchill, largely dry and bright , but there will be some scattered heavy even thundery showers, containing hail and some of these on the top of the Cotswolds and Malverns will be of a rain/sleet mix.  Saturday evening for the most part will be reserved for the Firework celebrations, take your boots, scarf and hat and even an umbrella, as the wind will be strong and it will feel below freezing!although it should be dry as the showers will have died back to the Welsh hills and Mountains and Coasts, although some showers are still possible! Have a good one.
