The colder weather of this week and into next won't last long.

Good luck with that one!

I regularly read the Model Output thread on TWO and the gist I am
getting from that is that over the past week or so the models hwve been
flip-flopping like mad are hard pushed to call anything at 5 days, let
alone 10.

The people on TWO that you were reading were wrong, I'm afraid, Col. Those people simply do not know when to trust model output and when not to - especially when there is a sniff of cold. It tends to addle their brains. 😀😀


When you made that forecast the models were all over the place. There
was simply no clear signal at 10 days. Well done for calling it
correctly but you really just got lucky.
