Jeez...Was up through the night to it hammering down. I knew the garden would be flooded and I wasn't wrong! It's like a lake down there and that's with the pumps working as they come on automatically! I wonder what's next in store? Temp currently 5.2c DP 4.3c Pressure 973.1mb. -

I hope that the heavier blob out west just above northern Ireland keeps breeding as it is now. It is travelling from west to east in a straight line. Saw this set up a few years back (when the M8 was blocked because the front had stalled) Anyone remember that? Temp and DP were stuck at 1c the whole time. -

well at least I have seen some snow in this latest will it won't it scenario! Not much mind and alternating between graupel and large flakes. Coming in on a straight easterly off the sea at the moment which might possibly lead to something a little more interesting later on in the evening. Current temp. 0.6c dewpoint -0'7c -

Surprise surprise we currently have a snow flurry here (along with bright sunshine!) However, it looks as if there might be something heavier incoming? -

Morning...(just) Feeling cold here this morning despite being 2c. Beginning to cloud over now. Was getting quite used to those crystal clear skies! -

Well, no snow blower will be required today me thinks. Crystal clear skies again and temp currently -5.4c - dewpoint at -7.4c and no wind. No frost either! I'm off to Edinburgh today for a check-up so at least the roads shouldn't be a problem. -

Thursday 6pm - 12am (snow) C3.7 mm 997.8 mb Moderate breeze from east12 mph Friday 12am - 6am (snow) 13.4 mm 994.3 mb Moderate breeze from east north east15 mph Looks impressive and it would have been had it been in cms! What is that in English? I make it around 3/4" Or is there a difference with snow measurement? I must have missed that day at school. Can't think where I would be! Anyhoo, It's a first for the Fife station throwing their predictions into the ring! Oh...wait a minute... Snow depth is measured using a snow depth sensor which measures the distance from the sensor and the ground beneath it An ultrasonic transducer transmits pulses and listens for the returning echoes from the surface!!... which is... One o' them... -

Dew point -1.8c here. Didn't expect that to be so low at this point? Not that I understand it fully! I mean i've only been on here since 2004! -

Hello all. Nice morning here at the moment but cloud creeping in now unfortunately. It should be a week of keeping an eye on developments I think. Here's hoping for an interesting outcome. -

Morning all. I think it would be a brave person to try and unravel any/all weather predictions at the moment. I have a feeling that none of the forecasts have a handle on future prospects. Yesterday, Fife forecast had it turning colder next week but not as cold as being forecasted today. The quick rise to double figures predicted yesterday by Fife for the coming Friday, has now changed to overnight -4c and only achieving 3c for a couple of hours thereafter. Beyond Friday is remaing low. So... back to the daily updates from me at the moment until things become a LOT clearer. (From a Fife perspective of course.)
