Thanks Pete, its good to be back. Yes I do love dogs, I am now down to three though. They all love snow.
I don't care how much/how little snow we get, just a few flakes falling from the sky and that will make me happy.
Those were the days, my friend...Taking the old Collie out for a game of snowballs! It was the 'Swinging Sixties' mind you...
That's like asking Jeremy Clarkson does he like cars?
Do you like cars WM?

Have not posted on NW for months but OMG We have a met office warning for heavy snow for Sunday for Skye Lusa.
I cant wait Welcome back, S...
Do you like dogs at all, btw?
-
Yo SO!!!
I must admit, that in the 21 years that I've been up here (1995 excluded) I've not before seen an outlook quite as promising as this one's shaping-up to be! Maybe, I'll even see one of my old (MK) favourites of yore: snow falling through freezing fog???
That was 1963 btw!

Also, some potential for a freezing-fogfest, should that flabby area of LP hang around?? Back to the Good Old Days!!

Winter 95 was one of those winters that i will always remember...it was pretty bad in Aberdeenshire, i think -15oC was recorded in Banchory
It was a stonker, for sure...We got -25C in parts of Glenurquhart. It even killed the broom!
-
Ah, so that's Blackburn in Lanarkshire now??!! I'm sure Alex Salmond will be happy if we annex parts of England
Aye, you're welcome here SC
No mate. it's the one by Aberdeen!
-
Can I join in on your forum please guys, mine has too much tumble weed blowing round!!
So long as you don't mention the MW!!!!

Still looking fab for me when in Inverness
Well Stu, IF the models are right, snow should spread down from the North sometime late on Friday??
-
Now, I imagine we're all going to do better than this over the next few weeks, but it goes to prove, just because the forecasst doesn't say snow....
Nice pics OON...It's nice to see so-many 'entities' this early in the season!
-
OMG this is nuts,as a child i used to spend hours wathing the lampost outside our house,then when i had to go to bed i used to sneak a torch upstairs and hold it against the window to see sleet or snow, it used to drive mum nuts. And yes now i also get in the car to see if any rain is turning to snow, its just now the missus thinks im nuts.
Me too. I used to sit on the window-cill behind the curtains, watching the Lamppost...When my mother crept in to check on me she'd say: "You stupid boy"!
-
Well. well, well - the latest Fax chart for Sunday indicates Sneckie's best change of a snowfest for many a year, methinks: strong NW winds, sub528 air and (hopefully) widespread heavy snow showers...The only word of caution (I hope!) is that if the wind comes from due North, any falls will be that much lighter, or - perish the thought - non-existent????
Please God, keep a Westerly component in the wind!
-
Has anyone ever had it where they are looking out their curtains at the lamp post and someone across the road looks out aswell and you kinda slowly put the curtain back across like nothing was happening? I have many a time
Many times!

Hello everyone
I'm a new member, just signed up a minute ago. Been reading in the sidelines for months now.
Welcome to netweather snow1975...

Hi Pete
I should think that folk in your region are well pleased with prospects. The weekend onwards looks pretty good for you up there. A nippy sweety of a northerly to look forward to and it looks like quite a bit of snow as well as a white xmas is a distinct possibility too!
Aye Tamara. It's already getting hard to sleep at night, what with my (rather premature) need for lamppost watching...Old habits die hard!
Anyhoo, if you don't get snow today, tomorrow's looking a dead cert!!
-
I suppose we all see different angles from the charts from the point of view of our own backyards so fair enough :unsure:
:lol:
What I really meant, is that that type of evolution is likely to be what's caused the MetO to predict a longer cold spell than the GFS 06Z...For all of us North of the Border!!
-
Put some washing out yesterday to 'air'...and forgot to bring it in!!
I have several tea towels that are still as crispy as poppadums out there!!
lol I used to put ONE wet nappy on the line, so that I didn't need to go and read my thermometer...I always put it down to my eccentricity! :unsure:
-
Im hoping that the Fax charts are nearer the mark...the angle of approach looks to be a tad more preferable, to me???
-
Dry and bright with a fresh NNE breeze, 8C...It's good to see the mares' tails coming from the NNE, for a change!!

100 reasons why AGW...............is wrong.
Goodness, this'll take some ploughing through.
That's 100 more reasons not to vote Tory???
-
And, if winds back more to the West or Northwest, most Western parts (esp. Argyle and the West & NW Highlands) could be in for quite a packet??? I'd guess (uppers being generally around -6C and below) that any marginality should be confined to coasts and areas close to sea level (Me!
)...That said, an increase of only 1 degree has the potential to scupper all that???Interesting times ahead!
-
Dry and partly cloudy with a balmy N breeze, 7C...

I'm hoping, BS... :lol:
