crazily 3 miles out here in Luncarty ive had 2 epic showers and getting on for 8-9 cm which ordinarily id be delighted witj if was not viewing this thread and getring snow envy 

defo picking up some great showers  i would say last 2 have delivered 3 cm alone in last 30 mins

@hawesy you just never know... could be an epic comeback

intense shower just now

Glad to hear it! We’ve had a couple of decent ones this evening after a day of nothing but flurries. Probably sitting at 3cm, so short of the 8 I predicted for myself.

DON’T do what I did and use your appendage. I’ve been in the bath ever since trying to recover. Plus, I’ll never know if we got past 2 inches....

That streamer through the Forth-Clyde Valley doesn't want to relent, anyone on the M8 I suspect is suffering very badly. A similar event occured in late November 2010 I think as well.

Anyone in Glasgow city centre? Must be bad just now? 

[edo]

[Cheggers]

Yeah really, don't think I could have found a sweeter spot for this winter. I dare say it wont be like this every winter but hey you take the rough with the smooth.
