The 12Z is now up. It's unremarkable at T+288 and I'd guess very
different from the 06Z that you presumably saw.

Richard showed me the sacred place where the most outrageous charts are
saved until eternity or the next ice age .

Yes, I had a look when Richard posted that link here.

Mind you if it is the next ice age , then we will all be hankering for
the current dross that we are so ungrateful for at the moment, by then
it would be the 'good old days'.



Anyway, though the GFS 12Z operational run may look unremarkable at
T+288, the GFS ensemble and the ECM operational run and ensemble look
much more encouraging for cold-weather lovers from about 8-9 days out.
