Heaviest snow since Tuesday here again. Just got back from the neighbour's when it started. Mr fatty flakes billowing down there and the gritted A701 covered once again. Snow Farrah only went past 90 minttes ago.
I was up around 3am and it was moderate snow - but nothing like Tuesday. Disappointing and a lesson in frontal ppn behaviour as CMD suggests! Local roads still closed and we are running out of supplies. Send a helicopter with a curry.
Latest radar has it 200 miles west over NI and as far north as the central belt. And it's 'growing' ENE. It also appears to be 2 hours ahead of modelling, so who knows!
I think the A701 is back open now over the Devil's Beeftubs - not very often that that gets blocked and Moffat gets cut off from the north. Two gritters in convoy went passed at around 10am here - followed by a convoy of a dozen cars and trucks.
Right! I phoned I to work from at home at 06:45. Soooo pleased i did - the main roads are skating rinks with cars crawling past, the few cars that are out that is. What a day.
Still very wet here too. Heavy shower has given a covering, but it's dripping from trees and melting. Baby steps to tomorrow's less marginal conditions.
