I know I heard folk saying it was coming from the USA! I didn't realise the US owned the polar maritime?

Yeh it might be a nowcast Ravelin. i.e A couple of inches fall on Wednesday, and they crank it up during the day to amber.

Does anyone think the yellow will change to Orange later tomorrow?

It's good it's moved back to 9am Wednesday. At least there is agreement the cold will dig in from the wee small hours of Wed. Just the boring non day tomorrow to get through. I think we might all get something out of this. We have had some snow but not what I would term real snow.
I reckon 4
inches and above is proper snow! -
On another note I was infuriated hearing people talking about first signs of spring on Radio Scotland this morning. It's bloody January get a grip. Spring in Scotland doesn't come until mid March! The reason for the discussion was snow drops appearing. Again they are a winter flower and always appear at the end of Jan if there is no snow on the ground. It's nearly as annoying as seeing summer holiday adverts on Boxing day!

Yep I am not getting too excited about Wed/Thurs yet! We have all been there before. Lets see how it pans out. Just wish we didn't have the Tuesday mild day getting in the way before the model watching starts!

Right can we fast forward to Wednesday and bi pass all the boring days.

Well I will be watching the temps after this front goes through to see how low they go. Expecting at least sleet/snow tonight at any elevation!

Here is an interesting thought. We all love winter on here. But what is your favourite month and why?
Mine is actually October. I love the colours,the first hint of darker nights and the first frosts. It also fills me with anticipation of what winter will bring. It can often be the first month that the mountains get their first proper snowfall. People in my work think I am crazy for liking the dark evenings.

BBC are hinting at another cold spell and soon. There seems to be something afoot that they are speculating on. Feb 1st is not that long away now!

Yeh Spindrift it's only for 12 hours, and then back below Munro level according to Winter Highland.
-
Meto have rain turning to snow on Friday after 9pm!
-
Does anyone agree that there is snow potential for Friday evening and into Saturday. I realise it will be short lived but it would still be good. It's not really being suggested on the usual sites but on the models it shows potential. The good thing is the mountain forecast for next week looks below freezing at Munro level.

Snowy I think you are correct. Friday is about average to mild,Saturday is colder, with snow potential. Sunday looks like the hairdryer day, and then it's back to cool with cold spells. It's not a disaster by any means.

Light precipitation appearing in the borders....ho hum....

Yeh some dribs and drabs appearing inland as well. Might be interesting if the North West stuff come in fingers crossed.
-
Blitzen -I will be happy if it snows on Saturday even if it only lasts a day!

No chance of breakdown snow on Friday. However there is a 50/50 chance of lowland snow on Saturday. Realy boils down to the intensity of the showers. After that back on the roller coaster and mainly upland snow for a week at least.
-
Well I hope the cold returns on the 24th. Can live with 2 mild days I suppose!
inches and above is proper snow!

Snow Idea. I wouldn't worry about the Falkirk sleet thing. The weather station they use is Grangemouth 30ft above see level! You are up in the braes where I am, at altitude 400ft plus. I never worry about what they say will happen in Falkirk, as far as I am concerned it's a sea level town and we are completely different in the wee towns higher up. Anywhere above Polmont will get snow.
