Just read your post and looked out and sure enough here as well.

[Ravelin]

Bah humbug, all coming in the wrong direction for Aberdeenshire so we ain't getting any snow, wet or not. Would probably be cold enough too at around 2C currently. Traffic cameras on the higher bits of the A9 look interesting. Hopefully all the ski areas are taking a pasting, maybe enough for a wee trip skiing before the end of 2013?

also would add the 12z GFS keeps the warming in the Canadian sector of the strat aswell

Not quite a Steve Murr sausage but a spectacular sausage none the less!  Lets hope it delivers.

with the warmings on both sides and the cold being leaked out you would think its only a matter of time before the PV goes pop.

Rain readily turning to sleet and then snow across many areas..

Heavy snow showers on and off up here.

[Gogoslo]

How far east do you think that snow will get before turning to rain?

[Swave Snow]

Very Heavy Snow in Aviemore 

[A Winter's Tale]

Quite a few flashes of lightning again.

[lorenzo]

Couldnae resist. Moan the Braemar Snowgate Cam

 

 

Incase anyone missed this earlier in the week. http://earth.nullschool.net/#current/wind/isobaric/250hPa/orthographic=-20.51,49.99,1024

 

Some amazing images also kicking about of the Ice Storms.

 

Hope someone gets Thundersnow this evening..

 

 

[Cheggers]

Aye, just seen a flash over the Campsies. Hail and snaw currently pelting doon.

[Stormeh]

Quite a few flashes of lightning again.

Seen a few flashes of lightning over your way from my bedroom window. Someone must get thundersnow tonight!

[Highland Snow]

Temperature settled out at 2.0C/+1.1C and all the precipitation is of rain.

 

Another13.2mm already today (13.2mm yesterday also) making 125mm for the month so far.

[Glaswegianblizzard]

A few flickers of lightning here too, just before a heavy hail shower passed over.

[Highland Snow]

Very Heavy Snow in Aviemore 

 

[Hairy Celt]

Fair bit of very wet sleet here today. Took a trip down to the compost heap earlier & thought I might need the coastguard it was that bad - then panicked cos I'd not got my phone with me...

 

How many bombs this week?

[blitzen]

Anyone actually know where we're at with this thing? Can't get any info on the storm thread because they are all banging on about comparisons with the St. Jude's storm!  As far as I can tell, GFS was the only model with a dual centre? which appeared to downgrade the situation slightly for us. Other models still going with at least

930mbs and NOAA at 924mbs?
