Effectively all of March in latest EC Monthly is signalled as chilly under northerly-sourced flow, with pronounced +ve MSLP anomalies growing widely to N (esp NW) after mid-month. All in all, it looks like we will see disappointingly depressed temperatures for the start of Spring, with protracted risk of frost.
-> De laatste EC32 uitdraai laat een kille noordelijke stroming gedurende maart zien. Teleurstellende temperaturen voor de start van de lente.
The largest cluster from 00z EC gives a fair representation of expected outcome towards mid-March. From around then into late March, northern blocking becomes extensive in longer range suites (conspicuously so in yesterday's EC Monthly) and similarly reaches on into (at least early) April in GloSea5, maintaining the colder than normal theme. Note the risk of this outcome was previously suggested in the Feb issue of UKMO 3-monthly probabilistic assessment, before the EC Monthly support emerged.
Is het nu toeval dat nu de stratosfeer op zijn gat ligt, de noordelijke blokkades meer kans maken? Ik denk het niet.
