SYNOPSIS / DISCUSSION

A ridge / high pressure area expanding towards central Europe from the SW, while strong zonal flow establishing to its north in between the deep and dynamic upper-level trough over N Atlantic sea. Several disturbances are foreseen within this strong jet streak, with a new intense cyclone foring in the morning and later on passing just off UK to its NW. This low will affect NW UK with very strong winds, but models are not simulating any DMC so convective threat seem very low to zero. However, very strong wind field should result in rather widespread damaging non-convective winds over northern half of UK. An upper low over S Mediterranean quite rapidly moves further SSE and off our forecast map, where only some marginal convective activity is expected.
