And here's the 850mb temps. Nice push north of very warm air aloft into Spain. I see it's snowing in NorthEastern Canada. :-)

Typical.. all that warm air in Spain could be pushed up here, instead we will have a cold day tomorrow, just 13C, but then back up to 20C on Friday at least.

If we had a real southerly airflow right now, we could be seeing our first May 30C for 8 years or so.

Euro weekly. Looks like average and above average temps here until early June. Mainly above average for the East Coast. Cooler and wetter for the south and southwest. This could be the pattern for the summer as a whole.

Why is that even a surprise? It can snow there in July.

The suspense is on. I'm going to say 41° is your low. Clouds or wind wont clear out fast enough.

How can anyone not like today over yesterday. What a relief!

Latest GFS12z data sums it up for the region. Ups & Downs without any decent rain till next week. Saturday keeps getting less. Next good chance is with the front next week but that's 7 days away.

We start warming up Friday, get very warm again Sunday then start cooling down and chilly mid week to following weekend then start warming up again.
