I still cant post a photo ! Even the screenshot isn’t working ??

[Scottish-Irish Skier]

Best way tae go.

View oot the upstairs windae.

That must’ve been about 20cm that fell in under 2 hours in Glasgow. Some quite heavy stuff so no wonder the roads and the airport struggled with it. Some light snow starting to fall here again.

Correction: think that’s the rain started.

No, correction again: It’s snizzle!

Radar looks like it's clearing for here. What a great way to end a cold spell though

Been snowing here for about 25mins

Yep, started here in Thornton at 1.20 Vey wet but it's white and still falling

[Ruzzi]

Sean Batty reporting that 7cm of snow fell in the proximity of Glasgow airport and over a foot at Tulloch Bridge ... although I'm assuming the Tulloch Bridge depths are today's snow added to the previous accumulations to give a 31cm snow depth. 

 

[shuggee]

We've had 33/30/37/33/30 cms on different days lying flat on the lawn. Wind, thaw, sublimation. Completely random!

[snowy owl]

Woo hoo it worked! Not the best photo but it’s actually snowing in the east ! 

[GraemeB]

Went off here for a bit, but is now back on.

[NorthernRab]

That's the snow on here! Started light and was really struggling but now turning heavy.

Double post!

[JoeShmoe]

Stopped here now - just going out in it for a walk.. hoping that's not it for the winter !

[101_North]

Ended up with about 2.5cms. Usually these setups are straight to rain here so I'm delighted with that

[GraemeB]

Watching the radar and the cold air seems to be fighting back - the mild air looked like it was steaming through but seems to have slowed.

[mardatha]

Heavy here too

[Hawesy]

Nice photos people! 

Really proud of the Broughty Ferry snow shield, it has done a sterling job yet again where other, lesser snow shields have failed abysmally. Precipitation has broken up nicely as it approached and we have stayed dry. In addition we now have a nice wee SE breeze off the sea to raise the temperature to 3c, so any precipitation we do get will be rain. So there shouldn’t be even so much as a snowflake to blemish the day. Another great performance from this top of the range model. For anyone looking for a snow shield I couldn’t recommend the Broughty Ferry product more highly. Five stars.

Aye I didn't word it very well, I meant I'm assuming the 31cm at Tulloch Bridge is today's snowfall on top of what ever was lying before the frontal snow arrived. I didn't mean adding all the accumulations together. Be interesting to see how much they actually got at Tulloch Bridge from this frontal event. 

[Cheggers]

wind picked up and fog rolling in here. Still a few flakes falling

First few flakes just started falling here in the extreme NW of Dundee.

Aye, I'd figured out what you were trying to say and edited my post!

It's light snow here Hawesy.

+03/M00 here in Aberdeen. I think we're going to miss this whole period of snow throughout this last week in its entirety. Some amazing pictures from around the country though!

Wee snow shower back on here.
