Anyone have a rough idea when the 'main event' is meant to get here tonight ?

Looking at the BBC site etc..id go for a guess at 1-2am ??

Finally! Switching between large flakes, small flakes and graupel here. Approaching a couple of inches now.

I am about 7 miles from city centre to the northeast, the snow is very patchy here and quite thin on the ground temp is 0.8 celsius, this type of snow which is not frontal can be very localised.

most folk were predicting that the main event for us would be Tuesday into Wednesday still not sure its cold enough yet i did say last night that i thought the met-office would change there warning for the strathclyde area but iam still not sure that we are going to really get any worse unless the temp really drops

[Duncan McAlister]

[sammie]

Really comming down now outside, out of no where light snow then bang it does dark and starts gusting, huge flakes! Glad I do not have to go out in it.

[glasgow-guy]

[WhiteXmas]

Same here Sammie but it's calmed down again now. Radar shows another band of heavy snow coming towards me

[Mondy]

Light to moderate snow for 30 mins now - perfect snow for snowball fights

[glasgow-guy]

did anyone see the bbc report last night when they were interviewing people then there was a almighty crack of thunder that must have been cool

[Zenarcher]
