Great day here in Aviemore/Cairngorms. 

Been snowy all day but was late afternoon before any started to lie at low levels. 

A covering here in Aviemore currently and 0c. Should be lots more to come!

Will the slider turn glider and float our way? I doubt it but I'd probs laugh a bit too. 

Edit: Surely snow is laying rather lying? Is it speaking untruths? I would type lying so I'm asking myself this too.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm u wouldn't say I'm tired I'm going for a lay down.....  I think I will stick to lying not that I get a chance to say it these days

The snow's lying here alrightee now, and I'm not laying. It's sticking too. Not often I get to say it here, it's usually not.

[aggy]

Nice HC augurs well for the cold spell

We probably will get snow as I am injured for sledging after pulling my hammy attempting to roll back the years at a five a side tournament tonight.... after 6 years not playing it was not the smartest of moves....

[NorthernRab]

Good covering of the old sneachd here with the temp at -1.3'C and more snow incoming. Night all! 

[igloo]

still getting snaw showers but not lasting very long now some are even hail i think there  breaking up as they push further inland still i cant complain 3-4 inches laying here with the temp of -2c it will be a nice setting up here for the next few days at least

[Northernlights]

About 2 inches of dry windblown snow this morning and any bits of clear ground begining to freeze up at -0.5c

[Ravelin]

Snowing moderately here at the moment in a gusty wind. Just a light covering so far and temp just above freezing. 

[Altostratus]

Nice covering at home and in the city. Hard to tell depths as the wind is blowing it around.

I think there are going to be some happy snow covered folk in here today and tomorrow and others who will just have to suck it all up with a big sad wiggly straw. At least it's going to be very sunny for some of those without snow. The precip chart is accumulated up to midnight tomorrow:

No snow and no straw for me so I'm just sad. Happy for those of you who do have some white stuff though.
