February 12

Moderate snow here now! What a bizarre 15mins of weather

February 12

Heavy hail and sleety pish

February 12

Massive crack of thunder there

February 9

Only evidence of snow this morning is a light dusting on the hill behind the house from about 250m+. Wee bit more of a covering in the higher Pentlands.

February 8

Longest period of falling snow we've had here all winter and it's still not managed more than a dusting! Nice to see though

February 8

A bit heavier here now but still only a dusting on some surfaces

February 8

Still snowing here but no intensity to it at all

February 8

Mair Snaw Not sure @edo getting some action is something I particularly want to see

February 8

Still snowing here but very light and not amounting to much really except a light dusting on untreated hard surfaces, the car etc.

February 8

Off the bus at home now and it's light snow with a wee dusting building on some surfaces.

February 8

On the bus home and bits of snow starting to stick here and there on hard surfaces from about 110m asl. Nothing to get excited about mind

February 8

Light rain Edinburgh City Centre. Hardly surprising

February 8

Cold one this morning at -5c

Might see a snow shower later before the rain spreads in. Tomorrow looks really unpleasant

February 7

Bit of light snow earlier but apart from a few flakes on the grass there's no evidence it happened

As good as it's going to get round here I suspect before the rain appears later in the week.

The non-winter of 23/24 continues

February 6

Just as ECM and the Met drop any notion of snow here the GFS is back with this nonsense

February 4

Lovely looking nonsense forecast from yr.no (ECM)

February 3

Looks great but with winds from the east it'll be a sleety mess at best here! Met Office currently showing just rain for the same period!

January 26

@Ross B I'm heading to DC tomorrow morning for work. Sadly will be a lot cooler this coming week as could have done with a bit of warmth!

January 22

Against my better judgement I went for an evening cycle up to the reservoirs. Plenty of large trees down and lots of branches. Trails were like rivers in most parts. Tried to avoid the woods as much as possible just in case. Actually a really enjoyable ride despite the conditions.

January 20

As expected there's no issue with frontal rainfall reaching here as forecast

Absolutely horrible morning!

January 19

Wind is whistling round the house already! It isn't even close to getting started

Well. Apologies for this late spam post folks. I’m absolutely miles behind in the thread now as I became a Dad within the last 48hrs. So things have been eh hectic! A healthy wee girl arrived safe after a tricky birth. NHS highland have outstanding staff providing a brilliant service.

Thumping down with snow at the hospital and through the labour.

Nice wintry scenes outside the ward window after the delivery next day

Have always found Culloden battlefield a good place to ponder so walked the dog within a brilliantly snowy onslaught there too

These conditions continued yesterday evening and in to this morning. Family in western isles saying they have had the most snow in years. Other locations the same. Yesterday and overnight it was great here

Flow freeing up in the river today as the milder temperatures arrived *boos audible

Hopefully another frozen spell will come soon enough and more kilties can get pasted with snow. Planning on raising another winter aficionado with stories of this particular blast for her catch you in a few months after I’ve caught up with what I’ve missed on here
