Outlook for NW & central-northern Europe is fairly dry this week & then for NW Europe v. dry the week after. This October isn't shaping up as you might expect based on the strongest El Niño events in the historical record - a reminder that it's not the dominant player in Europe.

Avec une pression de 1046 hPa modélisée la semaine prochaine, les records mensuels de haute pression seront pulvérisés au Royaume-Uni. Jamais un anticyclone n'avait été aussi fort depuis au moins 1950 en Europe occidentale au cours du mois d'octobre.

17th August vs the 31st of August - grass bounces back rather quickly after rainfall!

L'éclipse solaire est en cours en Europe, sur l'image satellite visible de Meteosat12 on voit bien la zone d'ombre de l'éclipse, mais aussi la zone d'ombre de la nuit venant du Sud-Est qui se rencontrent.

In keeping with the Hurn figures, this month reached 334.5 hours sunshine here yesterday, making it the sunniest calendar month on record with 4 days still to go. Prior record was 335.4 hours in May 2020. Absolutely stupendous.

Wowowow, basically no measurable rainfall for the entire 16 day outlook for Ireland and many in the UK.

Dramaric scenes at Church Hill in Scalby as a large tree in the churchyard has come crashing down into the road. Blocked to traffic, but tree surgeons are cutting it up in a major highways operation.

Wondering where the sunshine has gone? Spare a thought for northeast Scotland; Aberdeen Dyce hasn't recorded any sunshine since 21 January! This is provisionally the longest sunless period here since records began in 1957 ☁️

There is a LOT of ensemble spread now. The closer the lines are the more confidence we can have in the forecast. The spread is largely down to an increasing number of ensembles finding cold or very cold solutions later in the month. Momentum continues to grow.

A big change to the feel of the weather for much of Europe next week, temperatures widely above average. More variable for the UK & Ireland with some mild days & some chilly ones as weather systems move through. Anomalously wet in western parts of Europe but mostly not by much.

Here's the latest thinking from the Met Office regarding Fridays low. They're currently favouring the worst snow to be across Wales, Midlands extending into parts of East Anglia with a 50% chance. A much lower (20%) chance of the system tracking further north.
