Saturdays pirouetting low according to the midnight run of the GFS model starts its journey moving quickly westward into central France from the Bay of Biscay before taking a sharp turn to the left and heading northwards in a retrograde manner towards London and the UK. If this forecast comes to pass and at the moment every model run seems to end up with a very different solution, It may well be that Meteo France or the Spanish AEMET metservice will get to name this first storm of the 2020-21 season storm Alex before the UKMO can name it storm Aiden. Each successive run over the last three days seems to have taken the initial low on a more southerly track into France.
