Snaw cover still hanging on here. Thawing only very slowly. Currently, 0.0C/-1C and cloudy.

Snaw cover still intact. Third ice day of the winter so far today, with a max of -0.4C. Average temperature for the past seven days was -0.6C. Winter has arrived - finally. Some more very light snaw this evening and currently -3.1C/-4C. All is well.

Just a covering here but a gorgeous winter morning. Cauldest night of the winter so far at -8.0C. Currently, -7.8C/-9C and clear.

7.0C and 105.2mm for me please. -
Snaw started yesterday evening and gave us a covering here, but already thawing later on. Still a bare covering at 9am this morning and now a cauld, rimy, dreich kind of day, with most of the snaw offski. Currently 2.1C/1C. Looking ahead, reckon we'll do okay for cauld and snaw up here, on and off well into Feb. Second half of winter shaping up much better than the snoozefest first half.

No snaw here so far. Cauld again overnight with a low of -4.7C. Currently-4.2C/-7C and bright. Ground frozen rock solid. Get the cauld in...etc, etc.

Happy New Year, kilters. This winter: snoozefest so far. One of the mildest Hogmanays I can recall (Flambeaux snaps attached) followed by this quiet weather for days on end. We did manage a second ice day this winter on Ne'er Day, so that's something. Signs of change from mid-month. Possibly. Currently grey, 3.3C and ZZZZZZzzzzzzz... -

Some weekend snaw snaps (from Sunday). We got well whumphed and the snaw was the dense and claggy variety. Its weight took out the gutters on one side of the garage. The cover lasted through Sunday and Monday and still a covering of slushy melting wintry mush on Tuesday morning at first light. A decent wee event to start the season. -

Ah, but is it 'stella' and 'nailded on' yet or still 'F1'? -

A decent wee dump of the snaw once it got going after dark. Horrible 'wintry mix' until then. 3" level and still going. Couple of snaps from Comrie and a wee festive one from Crieff. -

-1.5C overnight. A heady mix of frost and cauld drizzle to start the day and that wintry grey halflight that's barely there. Typical sh*te easterly in November - still too early, despite what all the feverish trumpets in the TOORPing thread have been banging on about for weeks. Will it snaw? Aye, probably soon. Will we have another 1947/63/78-9/2010? Probably not yet, but you never know. And that's yer winter forecast. Next! -

Bit drookit for the fireworks last night - over an inch of rain yesterday. Much milder than of late, too. Today: calmer, drier, sunnier and still fairly mild. A final tidy-up for the garden methinks. -

^ ^ ^ ^ ^ Sooner we have our own Scottish Met Office, the better. In other news, first air frost of the year overnight Fri into Sat. Low of -0.1C. Autumn bang on track this year and the sun is still snoozing. Stay safe in Friday's storm. -

Happy autumnal equinox, kilters. A lively week of weather ended with the first ground frost of the season after an overnight low of 0.4C. I know long range predictions are usually a daft idea, but given the soporific state of the sun just now plus other factors in play around the arctic, I'd have an each way wager that this winter is going to be epic. Snawtyres are getting putting on early. Eyes doon!
