  1. Altnaharra has an amazing weather . Numerous times it has been both the hottest and coldest place the same day . Recent notable cold spells at altnaharra include -22.3 in 2009 and -21.2 in december 2010 . Been a consistent performer.
  2. The coldest overall is Dalwhinnie with an annual temperature of 6.6 C followed by by Braemar at 6.8 C .
  3. I think braemar is the only place in UK to record below - 20 in November , Decemeber , January , February and March . Thats some record
  4. Number of days of average air frosts at low lying places according to met office 1981-2010 figures : Braemar 101.7 days Dalwhinnie 97.2 days Aviemore 88.7 days Loch Glascarnoch 85 days Aboyne 85. 9 days Esdalemuir 84.1 Tulloch bridge 80.5 Redesdale camp 78.9 Altnaharra 77.7 Santon downham 76.5 Shap 74.5 Spadeadam 74 malham 73 Englands highest is redesdale camp at an average of 78.9 while Katesbridge's was NI coldest with 57 airfrosts . Sennybridge topped wales with 65 average days of airfrosts. I wouldnt mind moving to Braemar or Dalwhinnie though . I was most surprised with Altnaharra as it usually has the coldest temperatures along with braemar and expected it higher on the list.
  5. Lowest minima into double digits as of now. From the met office 24 hour temperature: Loch glascarnoch -12.2 C Tulloch bridge -10.2.
  6. Not sure if mentioned , Braemar recorded -8.5C last night which is the coldest of the year.
  7. dalwhinnie might have recorded the lowest temperature of 2014 last night. It was somewhere around -8. Can anyone confirm this?
  8. Scotland as usual getting the best of snow showers. Kingussie this morning Drumochter A9 This video of carrbridge is simply beautiful. https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=1536608236587633&set=vb.1520970718151385&type=2&theater
  9. http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/media/pdf/b/d/MetLIB_13_001_Factsheet_4.pdf Met office says 5000 mm for west highlands but does not a mention a specific place.
  10. How big is fort william? 1883 mm of rain
  11. There seems to be alot of dispute which is the wettest place in UK? http://www.telegraph.co.uk/travel/picturegalleries/5386736/Top-10-Britains-wettest-places.html?image=0 this website states dalness in glen etive is the wettest. While other sites states its seathwaite in cumbria. Also the wettest spot in place is quoted as top of snowdonia with 4500 mm but met office states part of highlands get more than 5000 mm of rain. Can anyone clear up both wettest inhabited place and spot for me?
  12. Braemar recorded -2.1 , aviemore -1.1 as well as air frosts for altnaharra , kinbrace ,topcliffe and the usual spots in highlands last month. Katesbridge also recorded -1.9 C
  13. They should have a university in highlands with campuses in braemar , aviemore , dalwhinnie and tomintoul for all the snow lovers:-D
  14. Braemar recording -2.1 C and aviemore -1.1 C
