For the first time in quite a while, some places down here must have more snow than some places up there.

Isn't snow good :lol:

Aye. Don't forget you are an adopted Scot now, so there is no "down here" and "up there", just "aww aboot ra place".

I braved the mod thread earlier, what a mistaka to make-a!!!

Back to more pressing issues, all forecasts point to some snow overnight. So please, bring it on!!

Raining here. Doesn't even look marginal - dewpoints too high really. Maybe later on we'll see some snow as these showers look like passing again but I'm not expecting much tonight. The ECM has wobbles like all other models, and TEITS has his secret forecasting technique which makes him think it'll be worse than '87, so all to play for really! One dodgy run is still better than what we had a few days ago when hardly any runs supported the easterly. I think it will happen though, the block just looks like it'll win through sooner or later, and given that an MMW (stratospheric warming conduicive to northerly blocking) appears to be on the cards, this could make for a very interesting start to February as well. I just wish TEITS would reveal his secret forecast method!

Metoffice new style radar looking good for maybe a light dusting from midnight. 1.2 here with very fine drizzle. :D

Looking at the real radar the precip is fizzling out. BBC Scotland forecast earlier went for light snow overnight, but at the moment radar says "NO".

Few bare patches starting to appear but in the main a good 3" at least, and very compacted. Takes my 14 stone frame without leaving a foot mark :D

OK going for the wine, then the MO thread, charts are dodgy on NW so quickest way to get the "drift" (pun intended) is to go in.. back in a bit

That's me scuppered then... 11 years and counting.

9 for me and counting. Must admit as a Saffer wouldn't want to live anywhere else.

That 1lb really makes a difference. :drinks:

forget the extra pound and enjoy a G & T !! well thats what i say now, enjoying the G & T!

Braved the model thread and that was frankly long enough! still a bit of a mess over there, still a lot to be resolved before the models sort it methinks!

Away to watch Hustle that i've taped.

Will check in tomorrow and see how things look then and hope you all have some nice snow cover.
