Starting to accumulate in Glasgow now too.

[frewbuddie]

Can only say wow sorry for you guys that are not getting the snow ,But don't get this very often so making the most of it.

[scott_anthony_glasgow]

Yes heavy snow now. Accumulating very quickly.

Which radar should I look at to see where the showers are coming from? Is it the MO rainfall chart?

[dragan]

Are the winds due to swing west, to help the showers feed into lothians? I thought this was the case....

[November13]

Aye snowidea. Although if you google met office rainfall radar that one is better for zooming in!

Snowing pretty heavy here again, we now have more snow than the amber weather warning day!

erskine bridge is closed due to an accident on the snow (pic on bbc) and hgvs getting stuck on the m74.

[A Winter's Tale]

5cm - best snow event since February 2013.

[November13]

Yep against the odds the snow is now moving east into Falkirk!

[A Winter's Tale]

I've got a few videos but I'm struggling to upload so I'll try and get some pics. My sister is meant to travel from Edinburgh to Oslo tomorrow and will have to leave Glasgow early. The snow has stopped here and I've had no time to check the radar so is anymore snow in the way.

Reports of chaos in Glasgow City Centre. Don't know if it's snow related, although if it is that's quite pathetic for the amount that's fallen. 

[A Winter's Tale]

Cars are really struggling on the roads here - probably the most unexpected and disruptive snowfall since December 2010.

[skyeblue]

Have we got a streamer going to happen ,looking at sat 24 ??????

[GrangemouthBairn]

Snow at Ibrox just before 7

The game is on by the way so for those of us missing the showers tonight, and wanting to see some snow, it's probably best to watch the game

Yesterday, BBC weather were predicting lows of -12c overnight Sunday into Monday, and today, that has gone down to -14c.

BBC Scotland however are not predicting anything out of the ordinary - with mid single figure lows. Just how can the two differ so wildly?

Well, that was a fantastic journey home (sarcasm).

Very heavy snow in Cumbernauld at about 2:30 then it was ok until I headed towards Kilmarnock. A good inch on most of the fields there.

Then as I almost hit Thornhill it turned into an outright blizzard. In literally 5 mins the road was covered white and we were crawling at 20 mph.

Not too much here in Dumfries (around 2cm) which is now melting as light sleet is falling, I hope the temperature falls a bit to harden up the snowpack and/or a wee top up overnight....

[Norrie]

Heavy snow all afternoon in killie. Next to nothing in Irvine

[Poots]

At last, proper snow!
