Bit more like it today up at the golf course. Bit more of a sleety mess in city, and wet down at harbour.

Aye, I'm still lurking away! Though winters back so probably the odd post too great to hear @Norrance. Hope you still beat him! He's got a bit of time on his hands now right enough so annoyingly beats me, the bar steward.

Cold ice day yesterday, but a beut in Kenmore. No golf this holidays anyway, attached pic from 5th green! Back up to Aberdeen today and back to normality. Currently heavy wet snow but forecast to turn to rain later on. Fear the toads will be challenging..slow and steady!

Happy new year all! Pretty heavy snow in Kenmore from before bells for a good few hours. A further good few inches on the previous dump. All the best for 2023!  

Back at original home and good snowfall yesterday, turned to rain in afternoon before fizzling out, and this morning now frozen few inches of concrete. Looks nice though, and fun yesterday. lots of power cuts most of yesterday. Might catch a snow shower later today, then later tonight looks promising. Happy hogmanay!

Hi all, just patches and pesky ice left here in west of city - will be glad to see the ice gone. Are we getting some "fresh" in time for the big man and end of the week? Still looks a good possibility, but getting a bit edge of the seat stuff with a lot of scatter, and some delays to the northerly. Looked good agreement to me between means of GFS and ECM to me, once you cut through the MO thread noise. But mean is meaningless ?

Hi all, still lurking... Awoke from summer slumber and been meaning to post since. Great start to winter here. Picture from front garden couple nights ago. Hard frost all day, but stayed dry here. Picture of "unusual " icicle from friends in East Lothian. Little snow there it seems. And Picture this afternoon looking out the window to Loch tay from family, not that you can see the loch today!

wowzers - gusts starting to get severe now i'd say. Fascinating, but not fun!

Out of hibernation again. Not in a pleasant way this year. Stay safe everyone. I've not seen a system quite like this before and genuinely a little bit myself.

I think we got lucky in Rhodes. Sunny, though keen wind at times. Mid 20s but as another poster mentioned nights chilly. We usually are there earlier in month and this year at least then the weather turns through October. Still very pleasant, but the earlier the better I guess.

Hi all. I'm heading to Rhodes on the 16th October for a week. I often go at that time and been lucky to get good weather. Outlook looks a bit mixed though. Anyone with any experience of that area an takes?

Thaw on now I'd say, or at least snow disappearing in a different way to last couple of days. Showers I think now done for hear. Bit of warmth in the sun. Quick lunch walk at the golf course and even there a mile to west seem to have missed most of snow that hit the city. Dogs had fun in the drifts. And a slow mo of the last flakes of this spell ?

Morning. Looks like Aberdeen faired fairly well if it's snow you are after. Overnight radar showed some quite persistent light to moderate snow early hours then again towards end of night. A few cm of fluffy snow this morning. Sun had started to dent it earlier but clouded over now with light snow back on again. Looks quite a big streamer inbound. Hopefully the last of this spell!! . Looking forward to some spring warmth-ish tomorrow.

Light covering reinstated overnight. Maybe a cm or two, but blown around/away largely. On heavy again just now.

Exciting weather. Wind blowing it bare, then sun melting other than drifts, then another squall comes in. Thus one of the better ones so far at lunchtime, though on heavy again. severe windchill 20210405_122816.mp4

Light dusting of powdery snow. Just enough for a sledge. After fronts not much more happened here overnight, but heavy snow showers since dawn and radar continues to look pretty active

Fairly heavy snow. Temp down to 1c, dp just sub zero. Fat flakes, sticking. Think there might be a reasonable covering in the morning

It's really annoying for easy webcam views. Windy has a few good ones and can see weather conditions too. The more you zoom in the more pop up: Windy as forecasted WWW.WINDY.COM Wind map and weather forecast Also this but a bit limited. Snow Gate Cameras – This page will refresh once a minute. Please check the times on the individual feeds to make sure current. WWW.SNOWGATECAMERAS.CO.UK Temp down from 12c to just under 7c in 45 mins.

been awoken from my hibernation a bit early this year. Hope everyone is well. Currently 13c on my garden thermo, but it's coming. Kinda hard to believe, but temps dropping fast further north now. Be interesting to see what comes by the morning. Gave the birds double helpings this morning, poor buggers in for a shock!

Nice in the north east. Cold breeze, but nice in the sun and there has been lots of that, and lots more then next 4 days. Think the breeze is forecast to fall light too so good. Noticeable day by day the stretch in daylight hours. Still looks a probable cool down by the end of the first week of March to back below the seasonal average. Colder, but not that cold. Still some -10 breaches in the ensembles in outer reaches, in fact a couple as soon as a week's time. Not much support - yet!

Morning all. Another bright enough day today. Looks a bit blowy and dreich tomorrow for most, then long rangers paint a fairly dry picture well in to next week with temperatures well above the seasonal average (to my eye anyway). Very usable weather! Thereafter, still signs of a cool down to average or below average further in to March. Who knows, but a few ensembles still breach -10C and a fairly consistent cluster now that are well below -5C so will feel very chilly again and a shock the nature after this next 7-10 days. We'll see.

Braw day. Beach walk and garden tidy. Happy days

It was just a Thrush after all! Anyway, been a few nice days, a few damp days here. Nice just now, damp later, so getting out with the dugs now. Outlook looks like pressure rising and very little rain in the ensembles. Will take that - get out in the garden. a few more members dipping below -10 in the outer reaches. Still hopeful of some further wintry excitement in to March.
