Down to 1.6°C in the heavy sleet earlier. The analysis since Sunday in here nailed it correctly for me.

Hairy drive home for me too. 50mph max on the A roads. Then coming down the hill after Mountain Cross +BANG+, something was catapulted onto the car roof from the roadside trees. Haven't been out with torch to check her over yet - but couldn't see anything immediately. Fingers crossed.....

Yes I am clutching and any straw will do
And mine for comparison:
Been showing this consistently for a few days..... But looking at GFS there's a lot of heavy ppn within uppers no colder than -3°C until sunset then -4s and -5s reappear. Of interest at least!

It's wet and wild out there. Blowing a hoolie after a snow day at 9am. Currently 4.7/4.0°C.
Interesting week coming up...

Yep - was pitch black. Hand held and I was out of breath climbing up the back garden. The phone requires you to stay still for about 4 seconds whilst it does its wizardry.

Twentieth air frost at -1.4°C.
Took a couple of shots using nightlight on my Pixel 3 last night. Seems to be a competent system.

A 40mph drive into Edinburgh (well until everything went green down below Howgate and into Penicuik). Roads pretty bad, think we were caught out by the initial rain washing everything off the treated roads and then it turning to snow. Big crash on the A702 at the Red Barn/Melbourne. Meanwhile, the A701 really is turning into a gravel path with frequent big deep pot holes for mile after mile.
5cm in the end

4am 1.9°C and rain.
Up at 6am and 0.4°C with massive snow flakes.
2-3cms now and waiting for light before driving into Edinburgh. Couldn't cope with a blizzard in headlights just now, so sat in waiting with a lovely cuppa.
My first snow of the season. Lovely jubbly.

@shuggee @mardatha @CatchMyDrift on snow watch later?
All I will say is the short range models I have looked at don't really show much at all so wouldn't be getting my hopes up
Indeed. It's a genuine anything could happen situation. The predicted system is exiting a very fast jet stream to the left....

Disgusting weather. Going to be breezy this afternoon here in Edinburgh....
Looking ahead, is Sunday the first bringing of snow to the masses?

I'd just put it down as incredibly boring so far! And the yawnfest just drags on and on. December 2019 will certainly be quickly forgotten and never mentioned ever again.

Forgot to record Weds morning's eighteenth air frost at -1.0C.
+7.5C at 7am this morning. Positively Mediterranean.

Potential for someone to get 4 inches off the blob, my money is on @shuggee
Grand shout by @Kirkcaldy Weather previously, maybe yesterday?
I've been away! Left 5am Saturday to drive to EDI and in West Linton you couldn't see the road for all the snow. Was a 30mph job.
Home last night and there was a smattering of snow on the ground/grass but nowhere else and it was spitting with sleet. Same this morning.
Seventeenth air frost Sunday am and Sunday pm at -1.0C.

Snow here now too. Big gloopy stuff. Just taken the dog out round the garden and up the hill and after five minutes everything's soaked through, including him!
0.9°/0°C.

First snow of the season on the drive home last night - mesmerising in the car headlights. And this morning verges white in the headlights and tracks on the 'A' road at the highest points (~230-270m asl). Holding on to that steering wheel!

How was Sunday's storm a 'named' storm that no-one noticed, where as it's a working day today with significant weather disruption the storm has no name?
Lorries topple as wind and rain cause disruption
WWW.BBC.CO.UKRoads are closed and trains and ferries cancelled as heavy rain and strong winds batter Scotland.Really not understanding this so-called naming convention now.

Suppose it was the fifteenth air frost at -5.0C around 1am. +2C at 6am however, and spitting with rain which was falling on very icy surfaces....

Interesting read there Jo. You pose some interesting questions many of us have been asking for a while... Is anyone at Meto prepared to do an interview/write something justifying decisions and lessons learned etc. I wonder.
