If you really want to get into fantasy land a subscription to Netweather Extra
is good value for money. Amongst a whole variety of really useful stuff they
also include surface and upper air forecast charts for the North Atlantic and
Europe in 12-hourly time-steps out to 9 months ahead, updated daily! These
originate in NCEP in the USA. Today's issue shows mild SW'lies over the country
for Christmas Day! They also have UK regional monthly forecasts out to 9 months
ahead, also originating in NCEP. It's all quite entertaining stuff but they
also have a great deal of very useful "conventional" model output on the site.
It's one of the more useful sites I've come across. The cost of the
subscription is very modest - and no, I am not in any way involved with the
site other than as a subscriber.
