Global forecast model for synoptic patterns, pressure, wind, and temps with a strong ecosystem of verification.
AI-enhanced version of the GFS model offering rapid-processing guidance and additional comparison alongside the operational run.
A 7-day forecast model at 10km resolution, derived from GFS data. This model is excellent for picking up on trends outside the shorter timeframes.
A 54hour forecast model at 2.5km resolution, derived from GFS data. This model is excellent for shorter range forecast conditions.
High-skill global model for medium range guidance in 6 hour steps, with more variables. Useful for pattern changes, blocking and storm evolution.
AI-enhanced forecasting outputs for rapid guidance and comparison with physics-based runs.
ECMF HRES global model providing high-quality medium-range forecasting and strong performance in dynamic weather setups.
Additional global perspective for trend confidence and scenario comparison alongside GFS and ECMWF.
Met Office global model providing high-quality medium-range forecasting and strong performance in dynamic weather setups.
Met Office global postage stamp ensemble system for viewing trends in the short to medium range.
Our multi-model comparison charts display sea level pressure from the ECM model, GFS model and GEM model, overlayed on one chart.
High-resolution European guidance for precipitation, convective detail, and mesoscale features.
Short-range UK detail for local impacts: wind, rain bands, showers, and near-term temperature gradients.
Short-range UK detail for local impacts: wind, rain bands, showers, and near-term temperature gradients.
Very high resolution, great for near-term precipitation intensity, shower structure, and short-lived features.
Scenario spread and confidence signals. Useful for storm track uncertainty and pattern reliability.
