Blizzardo

The showers off the East coast are definitely pepping up and converging in bands (I can see 5 or 6). How far inland they will get is the question.

I've got a few short videos. I put one from this morning on YouTube called Cockapoo tackling Scotland snow, I couldn't get it to upload onto this site. Snow at that point was 2 feet around my back garden but we are seriously snowed in now. I will stick the one when I saw the snowploughs when I get a bit of time tomorrow morning.

2 snowploughs are currently stuck on the main road between Lennoxtown and Strathblane at the Lennoxtown end. They were trying to unblock the road going into my estate. The snow is blowing across the Campsies over the fields and is around 5'feet deep in places.

I'm in Lennoxtown and we are just over 2 feet of snow on the level parts, the drifts are around 4 feet.To measure it I had to stand in the snow and the depth was between my knee and my hip - just over 2 foot.

I'm 10 miles north of Glasgow and it's been snowing heavily almost non stop since yesterday morning. It's been a constant train of showers. Snow depth was over 30cm when I went to bed last night and it's well above that now.

Have had non stop blizzard like conditions most of today. I think my estate must be cut off now as there are drifts of 2 to 3 feet everywhere. The level snow is really hard to estimate but I'd say approx 20cm. I'll try to upload some pictures later.

Another very cold start to the day for me at -6.6c with a hard frost.

-5.3c just now for me which is colder than any minimum last winter.

Snowing here and starting to lie on grass and cars. 1.5c and dew point below zero for first time tonight -0.1c.

Coldest night of this winter for me at -4.6c.

Heavy snow here for the last hour which is way ahead of forecast. The temperature started tanking from about 9pm when it was 7.8c and raining heavily. It's now 1.3c and the dewpoint is 0.4c. The ground is saturated because of the amount of rain we've has since yesterday afternoon but the snow started to settle about 30minutes ago and it's all white now. Things could get interesting if this keeps going.

I was driving through Bishopbriggs earlier and the snow was was wet but heavy with huge flakes. Here there is a bit of interest with a heavier band of showers moving in from the east and the temperature down a bit on this morning. 2.5c/1.4c.

Sleety rain for me with surface temperature and dewpoint on the wrong side of marginal. As often happens when the upper temps look much better for snow later on - dropping from -5c to -8c about midnight - there is no precipitation around. At least the tops of the hills looks as though they are turning white. Currently 3.1c with the dewpoint 1.6c.

Just had a snow shower pass through there. Reasonably heavy for a few minutes but didn't last long. 1.9c/0.2c.
