There is now some good consensus a cooler NW regime is coming into place, no doubt good for Will! But even if that chart were to come into fruition it would probably result in sleety rain at best in London. [Apologizes in advance for bad grammar, spelling or misplaced commas]

Come on Alan, you can do better than that, your apology was in arrears, not advance. I have added some commas for you to cut and paste when you feel you require some. Enjoy. ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, (May have been a little over-generous).

David, if you could convert those commas into snow that would make me much happier, and I am sure Lawrence as well.

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

There has for some time now been a bit of a trend towards a change
around that date. The GFS ensembles now show a majority trend for
something colder around the 14th on as does the latest ECM run. 10 days
is a long time but it could be the first little cold snap of the winter
for us soft southerners.

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

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

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.

I realise everyone has their "go-to" favourites but I do like WeatherOnline and it's "everyone in one place"-ness.

It's not perfect (i.e. they've dropped the UKMO output as it's so unreliable) but there's a lot of interesting diagnostic stuff in there and they continue to improve it. They're even daft enough to include the occasional suggestion from me.

Yep. :)

The GFS operational run seems keen to keep the cold snap brief, but some
ensemble members are more keen.
