The mountain torque primarily coming from the North American Rockies. Research shows that +ve NAMT can promote neutral or -NAO patterns. I do get the sense that regardless of deeper cold / widespread snowfall risks January could see a repeating waxing & waning of blocking patterns. I'm still anticipating a below average month overall but detail re: deeper cold & snow prospects continue to remain elusive.

A huge injection of negative anomalies in the sub tropics moving poleward this coupled with a rather large injection of momentum via strong +FT and a strong +NAMT event and things are looking fairly favourable for continued blocking longer term.

The current broadscale setup favours Scandinavian troughing and while the jet stream is weak it hasnt collapsed entirely and with limited blocking to our north it seems likely the Atlantic jet will remain influential on UK weather through the next couple of weeks. Any cold spells or colder periods therefore are likely to be transient with low pressure pushing in across the UK. This may allow for some transient mixed phase (snow rain) events primarily across northern counties and particularly across hills."

Day after day we saw blocking to the north and low pressure disrupting south. What actually transpired (second gif) was weaker blocking to the north and low pressure tracking more north across the UK resulting in lots of rain and snow across northern hills. We are seeing something similar (albeit less dramatic initial modelling) for next weekend. Blocking has been weakened and as a result its looking wet rather than white for the vast majority. Weve seen this same theme play out all winter."

"Interesting uptick in AAM tendency at the moment being driven by +FT and +MT. The mountain torque primarily coming from the North American Rockies. Research shows that +ve NAMT can promote neutral or -NAO patterns. I do get the sense that regardless of deeper cold / widespread snowfall risks January could see a repeating waxing & waning of blocking patterns. I'm still anticipating a below average month overall but detail re: deeper cold & snow prospects continue to remain elusive. Colder doesn't necessarily = a snowy month. https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2004571109358751943"

"This is a BIGGGGG signal emerging from the flux plots. A huge injection of negative anomalies in the sub tropics moving poleward this coupled with a rather large injection of momentum via strong +FT and a strong +NAMT event and things are looking fairly favourable for continued blocking longer term. This does show further evidence that the initial blocking is likely to enter a waxing waning waxing sequence i.e repeated attempts at either Atlantic or high latitude blocking as January progresses.

"Previous tweets: AAM tendency is currently falling following a surge in late January. The current broadscale setup favours Scandinavian troughing and while the jet stream is weak it hasnt collapsed entirely and with limited blocking to our north it seems likely the Atlantic jet will remain influential on UK weather through the next couple of weeks. Any cold spells or colder periods therefore are likely to be transient with low pressure pushing in across the UK. This may allow for some transient mixed phase (snow rain) events primarily across northern counties and particularly across hills."

"MODEL BIAS (first gif) The AIGFS was consistent in bringing in cold easterly winds for late January. Day after day we saw blocking to the north and low pressure disrupting south. What actually transpired (second gif) was weaker blocking to the north and low pressure tracking more north across the UK resulting in lots of rain and snow across northern hills. We are seeing something similar (albeit less dramatic initial modelling) for next weekend. Blocking has been weakened and as a result its looking wet rather than white for the vast majority. Weve seen this same theme play out all winter."

The recent stratospheric weakening however may allow for ridges of high pressure to develop out in the Atlantic or towards the north of the UK two competing drivers working against each other.

The key points from the winter forecast issued at the end of October were; ⚫ Strong zonal / Atlantic regimes lower than normal ⚫ Blocking more likely than normal The MSLP anomaly (first image) shows that this blocking anomaly to the north has transpired with low pressure shifted south. A much more blocked pattern vs normal winters. So broadscale Im very happy that the winter forecast using a GSDM / teleconnective approach has proven to be very"

"PERIOD OF INTEREST 5th-15 February Following on from a coherent MJO transition through phases 6-7 its likely we will see further progression into phase [--]. Equally we have a spike in +ve AAM tendency thanks to strong +MT in particular an emerging +EAMT event which will generate a Pacific jet extension which will likely lead to a relaxation of cold across the USA.
