On the basis of this analog, my forecast for the rest of Dec is that after a mild start, the second week will be colder, followed by an increasingly mild rest of the month, particularly in Scotland & N Ireland.😉

I noticed the cold spell at the end of November bore a remarkable similarity to the one that occurred in 2024.

Yes I did.
They're still playing catch up with the ECMWF as far as NWP is concerned.

The graphs shows the recent mild spell at the start of the month & this cold spell.

The midday run is faster with the low that zips down from the NW.
The UKMO has finally caught up with the others.
Shame these charts weren't for 06 UTC, if they had, the chance of snow on lower ground may have been higher.

As in previous runs, the ECMWF are forecasting that pressure will build in from the NW by Thu, introducing a much colder, wintry spell of weather across Scotland from the 13th-21st.
A milder, zonal type returns after that.

An incredibly mild start to Nov, particularly across NW England, with +5°C anomalies.
If the forecast cold wave comes off, this could end up being a month of two distinct halves temperature wise.

A consistent signal from the ECMWF over the last few days of a cold wave, which will start on Thu in N Scotland, will gradually push S by next weekend.

As mild as it's been for the first six days, it's going to have to keep it up for the rest of the month, if it's going to have any chance of beating 1994.

Quite a number of stations with 20 consecutive 'rain days' (>=0.2 mm) at the moment.
We're on 19 (now 20) here in Strathpeffer, and although it's not been overly wet, it's never been completely dry either.
