I think it would be a good idea to start a new topic on the winter events in Scotland. So far this winter (November Onwards) it has been very promising. I would like to share all the images i take and see others across Scotland. Below are my winter images so far

Here are the images from the snow event from last night and today...as you can see the whole of Aberdeenshire towards the Cairngorms are covered in about 5" of snow, nothing at the coast except a dusting but 10 miles inland its a winter wonderland as far as the eye can see. Hope you like them...

Here are some pictures of the snow event here and the Frost from monday night, there was reports of -15oC but here it was -7oC

Need i mention it? Snow, Snow, Snow...the snow fom last week is still inpatches, now another 3" of it....

Had some snow this morning here is Banchory at 0900. Very heavy hail at 5am aswell, woke me up it was so loud.

Hi All, I had the opportunity to take a few pictures of the Snowfall at my parents house near Stonehaven on Saturday, unfortunately i couldnt take any on Sunday, wish i could have because 4 more inches fell during the night. Its still completely white here this morning even after the rain yesterday. I honestly cannot remember this much november snow since 1996. The deepest snow i measured were drifts at 19" and the deepest on the grass was 8". You can see this by my footprint on one of the images, my feet are size 9 so you can get an idea of the depth, bear in mind this was before the heavy snowfall f Saturday night. Hope you like the images.

Thought i'd share some images with you all of the snow in Aberdeenshire. These images were taken on Saturday, however, there was another 4" of snowfall on Saturday night. The average depth was about 9" by sunday lunchtime. Its been raining but not much of the snow has melted. I heard that there is a sever weather warning for snow today in Aberdeenshire and "yes" its been snowing again this morning. The picture with the footprint shows how deep the snow was on saturday, my feet are size 9's so you can get a better idea. Add another 4" onto it to get the real depth after Saturday night.

Continual snow showers all night and today, at least 5" deep with 12" drifts, current temp -2oC and -0.5oc in Aberdeen. Looking forward to the freezing rain and snow tonight!!!!

Took 45 minutes to drive home when the normal is 20. Still snowing and the regional weather forecast is for heavy snow tonight with another 3cm's expected and even more tomorrow night. They mentioned 3 warmer days and then a return to a Northerly for the end of the week...anyone able to confirm the likelyhood of this???

Getting a bit concerned about the snow fall now...my drive home is going to be dangerous and i'm hearing reports of heavy snow and dangerous driving conditions

Here is an update of the snow conditions as of 1230pm today

Thought i'd give you an updated picture as of 1230pm

Just west of Aberdeen at 10am, will get an updated picture by this afternoon

Pictures are better than words (10am in Banchory - 15 miles west of Aberdeen)

Drove over the Slug Road to work as usual this morning, the view was amazing, completely white from the Cairn O' Mount right up as far as the eye could see. The snow started at 0820 and sitting in the office now in Banchory where there was no snow when i arrived on the ground, now there is about an inch, very large snow flakes been falling for about 20 mins. One of my friends at work travels over the Cairn O'Mount and it is closed due to snow. Its looking very promising here, yet again another good Aberdeenshire snowfall...keep it coming

Here are some pics from this weekend at my parents between Stonehaven and Banchory. We had a tree fall down due to the wind and found some pretty impressive Fungai growing on some dead wood.

So the snow patch that is attached in the photograph is coming up for 2 years old??? Thats really interesting that ithas survived so long

Would you need planning permission to erect something this tall on your ground????

Sleet Showers and Hail last night at about 6pm here. The Cairn O' Mount had a lot of snow on it last night also.

Snow showers all morning here, settling well then melting in the sun but not shifting in th shade at all. Reports of nearly 3" of snow in Westhil, 10 miles west of Aberdeen...Its freezing

Lots of snow here at the moment, reports of severe distruption in aviemore and the Aberdeen-Inverness road. Approximately 2-3cms here in Banchory, a light dusting on the coast at 8am. Have seen lots of vehicles with an easy 2" of snow on them coming form further up Deeside. Looks like winter is finally here in Scotland....

That photo showing the depth of the snow is really impressive...

Cant give you any scientific reason, however, it looks like something is coming through the clouds given the edge of the shape on the right hand side....spooky!!

The realisation of Christmas!!!

Just had a sleet shower here in Banchory, very cold wind aswell
