frustrating isnt it 

 

its unreal how different areas are affected... 

 some will remember this forever as epic yet others will remember a decent snow fall 

if its lasting till sunday though could be epic for many especially memorable for how late in the year. 

i have 8cm now just been out and measured but the depth of cold and beautiful powder snow with drifts and being best fall since 2013 will make it memorable for me and for just seeing the disruption and totals elsewhere. 

and i may wake up to 15 more cm in morning and it enters epic. 

I now share your pain from Tuesdays snowless Perth. It does suck sir.

lolz of course mate.... im not some mad mad from the model thread.... like OTR i love to see everyone have copious amounts of snaw... 

Appreciate it Edo, all your comments tonight have made me smile. I've a nephew in Edinburgh and he's thoroughly p****d off that he's got very little snow. If it's any consolation I spoke with another nephew in Shawlands, Glasgow and they've just a light dusting.......but it's still coming down in Motherwell as I type?

There was traffic sign near Tore this afternoon that said bluntly

AVOID TRAVEL TOMORROW

Bizarre. Do they want the country to have a day off?

Do you want me to update you with the depth in Motherwell in the morning or would I be pushing my luck? Hope you take this in the fun manner in which it is sent.

Heavy wet snow in the West End of Glasgow.  The pavements on the quieter side streets are treacherous, semi-frozen with a layer of slippery wet snow and slush.  Looking at the overall picture, although lying snow is limited in places, I'm amazed there was no amber warning.

Heavy snow showers lying in Motherwell at 1145.
