Quite a strange morning here in a way, There's a particularly pronounced inversion here. If you look at observations across this area, even a few miles further up the same river valley, They are mainly 8 or 9C (a few 7C or 10C).

Yet here we seem to hae had a pocket of cold air trapped in the valley all night as it's 3.6C here currently! A station that's higher up about 1 mile away is 9.1C.

Hope this will work, but here's a comparison between my site (red) and the nearby one on a hillside (blue) on the Met Office's 'WOW' site. http://wow.metoffice...rement=dry_bulb

Following on from claims that it's snowing in scotland currently (model thread), it's not - temps are in double figures

[Paul_P1]

Whats the white stuff on the ground on the cameras? hail?

[Weather Wizard]

It looks exactly like snow to me

Following on from claims that it's snowing in scotland currently (model thread), it's not - temps are in double figures

[Paul_P1]

There's even a white snow like substance on the cameras in Dunblane.......

[Paul]

There is no weather station in scotland reporting snow, in fact the lowest temperature I can see is 8c in Stornoway. Some are reporting thunder so hail is possible.

And looking at the cameras, they appear to me to have some sort of image enhancement for night time on them which makes reflected light and the grass appear white.
