    A cloudy overcast night with the odd light snow shower and clear spell developing during the early hours, leaving a dry overcast morning and an overnight low of -1.5c, feeling raw in the East wind.

    Current Conditions.

    The same old snow patches still remain under the walls, and a thin covering in places if ice/snow pellets. Tonight could turn very interesting..
