Clear sky now. Hoping for a lot of ice... :)

Will I ever grow up?? :) :)

I can guarantee its much more fun being young at heart. Enjoy!

I love the snow as much today as I did as a youngster..........it meant lots of fun and laughter (as well as cold fingers and toes which were all part of the memories). Doubt that our children and grand children will see as many proper snowy winters as we did.

I think later in the night will be a bit better here, with the showers pushing further northeast towards Fife and Dundee. Not done too badly so far, but I think tonight and tomorrow will be better.

Still unclear what wind direction we are going to end up with. wallbash.gifwallbash.gifwallbash.gif

Band of snow moving west towards the forth with the hint of a southwesterly wind - anyone remember the 8th of February this year? Fairly similar track of PPN though there looks to be more showers around.

I give up!! Raining here beside the huge blob of precip which is passing to our north. I see there is another warning out which covers here but I am not holding my breath :)

Those showers are taking a more westerly angle now. Glasgow city looks like a good place to be just now. (Didn't think I'd ever say that in any context!)

I can't see much making it through east, certainly not with Perth hogging everything that came out of the Highlands today.

Cait' a bheil mo shneachda?

What's your temps? Temps are the key 1C DP -1. A degree or two up and it sucks :-(

That's almost an hour now of snow here. Sometimes it's light, other times it's battering down.

Still waiting for some snow here. Had the brief 30 min blizzard yesterday that made the place white then slushy and icy, no lying snow of note here, maybe a millimetre of two depending on where you look. Whats the chances of some substantial snow (a few cm's for us) reaching here soon? Not holding out much hope. :lol:

You're right enough, Gilly, the snow is free, and it has no price...But, it's wonderful none-the-less! :lol: :lol:

Maybe, we could organize a Net-weather meet-up in Inverness? Just an idea...What do y'all think? :lol:

Guys further west have slightly warmer temps, maybe two degrees max more than inland areas (dewpoints too). Cold air is totally embedded here (still 0.3c) - the wind has shifted more westerly and it's come unstuck against the coldness here. Quite dramatic when you think 25 miles west and it's raining. What's happening on the east coast, Edinburgh too ?

Not very happy, temperature now 1.8C and dewpoint 0.3C. On Thursday, the station was recording dewpoints of 0.2C and it was still snowing so I'm not entirely sure what precipitation falling will be. Hopefully the showers will bring the dewpoint down a little and it'll be snow all the way but I'm becoming a little wary.

Nothing happening here at all. Light sleet shower in Leith in the last 45 minutes.

Edinburghis still managing to avoid anything worthwhile - goes around us on all sides - and even our castor sugar dusting is at risk from sleet and any slight rise in temperature.

Bugger! Have METO radar on and the showers are just scraping to the south of Fife. Looks like they are following the river. Temps and dewpoints both 0.8
