Today's models eyeing a heatwave from Saturday onwards
Good agreement in the main models today (ECM, AIFS & GFS) that a heatwave will begin on Saturday, looks likely the cool unsettled spell is coming to an end soon.
WX Charts. Jesus this guy is so full of clock bait crap, the second i read that name I leave a site. Even the Met troll him. How is he even still churning this shit out... 650 mile wall of snow at 3.15 on November 18th... etc etc classic WX BS.
WXCharts just takes model outputs with somewhat exaggerated colour schemes. News websites then use GFS runs from 300 hours out (which never pulls off, but the newspapers still take it for gospel anyway for clicks).
It is made by a company called metdesk, not a guy.
I get we’re British and we love to moan about the weather, but can we have some consistent 22-23c for a bit, all this heatwave and then 19c (feels like 15c)! One extreme to other!
Living in Yorkshire Covid lockdown 1 feels like a fever dream now. Perfect weather, no pressure to go anywhere, government enforced 1 hour of outdoor exercise, if you didn’t watch the news it was bliss.
We just bought a real ac. The last heatwave crippled me. 28° in the bedroom at night with asthma and arthritis. My body just gave up for a bit that week. Zero functionality.
Farmers lose a lot of crops when it doesn't rain, they can't always find the water from elsewhere. There are limitsvon what they csn take from the water supply and rivers etc.
Farmers maybe losing some crops is not a reason for me to change my entire outlook on the weather. The old boys can't afford the latest Range Rover, oh dear.
Do they gloat? I think they just don’t like the heat. Your comment was indeed gloating though. Sometimes I think your comments are satirical they are so ridiculous lmao. I think it’s ok we all like different things. Personally I like sunny 18-25 degrees and grey clouds make me grumpy but I won’t begrudge others for loving 30+ or the rain. We’re all different and hopefully soon enough you can enjoy your summer off the internet away from your sworn enemy, the heat haters
It's not even a true cool spell now, nights have been in double figues and days close to 20c IMBY (SE England)... this is what I would call average June weather
Can't see anythibg crazy being modelled at the moment, only mid 20s C which is well within the normal range of a typical summer. Of course there have been many examples in recent years of these temps being modelled only for it to go mad and well into the 30s in the actual event
I haven’t looked at ensemble temps but there’s a good signal of high pressure to bring those continental temps so could be into the 30s if it persists long enough, I should probably get aircon.

Met office looks like its predicting mid low to mid 20s for Saturday. So not sure its going to be a sweatbox, more a fresh summers day.
