[LomondSnowstorm]

NAE upgrade:

Could still be ok for those just north of the central belt even at 9am:

[Highland Snow]

My Weather Display weather station software is now predicting SNOW! Can't be wrong surely.

Temp -1.9C/-2.9C hourly rate of increase +0.5C.

[Isolated Frost]

Hi-res ECMWF meteograms seem to indicate snow for much of the central region at times tonight- mostly sleet in Dundee and Edinburgh, but a strong signal for snow before midnight in Glasgow and Stirling- and on high ground in central and eastern areas, a good chance of heavy snow this evening.

Just writing to say that us southerners are green with envy.

Yours sincerely,

Some rather jealous people.

Thanks for those, looks touch and go for my location based on that, little bit more elevation and a touch further inland of both Edinburgh and Dundee. Of course if temperatures do hold below 1C for the whole evening in both those locations it wouldn't take much to just keep the dewpoint just below 0C...

Light snow in Motherwell.

[frewbuddie]

Getting really heavy here in the Frew, daughter in Cardonald Glasgow, text to say no snow there yet great to see the white stuff again.

[Harve]

Rain here in the south of Glasgow. Falling onto a frozen surface. If I had a dog I would not take it out for a walk just now.

And yet snow is settling readily a mile north of the city centre. No hint of sleet yet.

[sn0wman]

Snow throughout Glasgow now, even in city centre. Very encouraging!

[Sunny Leith]

He's been trying to steal other peoples snow for years now but this is going too far. Aye, a real snowciopath !

He keeps moving closer to me. Starting to feel slightly concerned.

Put a lock on the picnic bench just in case.

-2.7 C (rising), DP -4.0 C

[West Highland Storm]

Fort report -Minus 1C, Nae Snaw at'aw.

[Winter Snow Blizzard]

Heavy snow in Bearsden and lying on the ground too

[LomondSnowstorm]

Given the progress made by the band, I wouldn't be surprised if it hit Fife and the Lothians by about midnight, if not slightly before.

[Blizzardo]

Snow getting heavier and instantly lay with a full covering but temperature still rising. 0.9c/-0.5c.

[Stockaree]

Still frosty on cars. Clouding over. Really need to get to bed now so will probably miss the snow if we get any

[skyeblue]

The Kirkcaldy meteogram predicts sleet before 3am, while most if not all precip is snow afterwards- which is bizarre, but the majority of the precip does occur before 3am.

The shaded/striped precip is snow, whilst the all-blue precip is rain.

Amanda, so sorry about your dad, our thoughts are with you.

[spindrift1980]

Snowing for the last few minutes here now too. A light dusting lying on everything.

[Bullseye]

No snow here, just ut side Castlemilk has been raining for last 45mins and the ground wet , if it does snow has to be fairly heavy for chance on few cm's . Hope...
