Walk past nonchalantly wearing a red scarf! 

You'll be a hit on Misreporting Scotland :laugh:

Sorry opportunity missed, they cleared out PDQ as it is mental up here, and the wind is ferocious. 

All my digging today has been in vain, my first igloo entrance almost half closed already.

Yes it's hitting here hard. 

Sorry for the lack of snow pics. Been out in the snow. Drifting here is incredible. 

This 2mb limit is a pita. 

Thanks...the drifting in and around strathaven was getting quite bad. Is there much fresh snow..? I left strathaven at 1200

Heavy snow on again. Lashing down!

So happy for u mate this has been a most unexpected bonus to u.... We are bang in the action tonight with heavy shower after heavy shower.....I actually fear Perth might be missing a lot of them though...my 4 miles out may be proving crucial in this line of snow......hopefully not though

TBH only been walking up the hill above 300m. Up there the drifts are above the head. Worst I've ever seen. Not sure if fresh snow or drifting. Just mental. Down at the road might be ok. Not sure.

Great to hear you're in the zone tonight too mate! Hopefully plenty of sledging  opportunities  over the weekend for you :D 

I think that's probably the last of the heavy showers for here. Today's been great and a nice bonus to yesterday's epicness!

This is/was a road hedge either side. Wish I could get the photo of my daughter and friend under one of the drifts. It's a belter but too big to post.

@hawesy you must have a decent covering by now? @sawel heavy showers on now. A nice convergence line for the third or fourth time today.?

https://www.netweather.tv/live-weather/radar

Certainly had more today than we did yesterday and yes another cm or so this evening after some beefy showers. I live on the main road so watch it turn white and then back to tarmac as the cars pass and the grit gets to work. Something like 6-7cm on the ground I would guess, where the snow has not been disturbed.

Looking at the radar and the heaviest dark colour blob is heading straight for my house some heavy stuff before it as well. I was gonna have an early night but not anymore, I want to watch this come in.

Still some hefty showers rattling through. About 2cm added since about 8.30. Great stuff :D

The line of showers has been missing us just to the North recently and there is another not far to the South. Stuck in the middle for now.

    The flooding in the Middle East desert city of Dubai earlier in the week followed record-breaking rainfall.
