Snowing again in central Manchester! It's fascinating watching the showers driving over The Pennines towards the city.

I was up in Wanlockhead this evening to do some measuring up for a job, and I called in to the Hopetoun Arms at Leadhills to say hello on my way back out. There's a lot of snow, maybe 30-40 cm level on average, and most lay-bys are unusable so if you want to park, best carry your own shovel to dig a spot. The roads are clear enough just now, but were intermittently white with fresh snow tonight and there's quite a lot of ploughings scattered about so wouldn't recommend driving them with a vehicle with low-profile tyres. Met up with a pal to had a wee headtorch ski on the hill to the north (Broad Law) of the road from Leadhills down to Elavnfoot, and lovely powder it was too

Thanks for the information! Looks like there is a lot more to come. I wonder what the final depths will be.

The guy who installed that webcam posts on here (moffatross?) - I believe he is involved with the Lowther Hills ski club, which should get some action at the weekend. The two villages in the area (Leadhills and Wanlockhead) only have a population of a few hundred each. Was up there in December and it was difficult to park the car because all the lay-bys and parking spaces were full of snow, but there is definitely a fair bit more now than the pre-Christmas snow.
Ah, cool. I've been to Wanlockhead a couple of times as a scenic stop off on my way to The Highlands. Us lot down in North West England are having to live vicariously at the moment - we've had nothing but sleet, rain, and hail from this current spell.

Do any of you live in the Lowther Hills? I would love to know the snow depths there. The webcam in Leadhills looks like there is some really deep snow in that area.

Strange sleet at Manchester Airport
C.S
I think it's passed south of the city centre.
-
I believe it went below -11 or even -12C at Braemar last week.
Apologies, you're right. It got down to -12.1C at Braemar on the 6th.
-
I believe the lowest minima so far has been -10.6 at Loch Glascanoch on the 5th of December.
