Whisky and then bed for me! Not much happening here for now to justify a late one! Great to read the reports coming in and glad to see @edo and the Perth lot catching some decent showers! Hope it keeps up. I'm sure we'll catch something at some point. Few showers earlier but for now dry, breezy and -1.7c! About 1mm on the ground - in patches

How is this one looking @LomondSnowstorm on the latest runs? So much going on over next few days so apologies if you haven't had chance to have a wee look 

I actually decided not to be lazy and had a wee look . Got it (I think) and looks good still?

It's certainly helpful that they're decreasing, although as it currently stands the flow on Wednesday is largely just about keeping the showers heavy for the east coast and inland south of the Forth. If we do get an extension of the easterly into Thursday though it would likely be on the slack side and something like that would go a long way to increasing the snow risk and maybe creating the conditions for secondary lows to develop (just speculating now but we'll see how it goes )

Oh dear. Hope it goes well.

Meanwhile, dash and blast it, I've seriously miscalculated on the beer/sport front. It's only blooming Superbowl night and I've left myself with just three more bottles to get through four hours plus of American football. Onto the malt then...

It could be an unsettled night here too.

i love my NFL...extra special with snow chucking it down in my eyeline to the right

Where's the game? Los Angeles?  If so, aren't they about 8 hrs behind GMT?   So what time will you be watching then?

I was just thinking cornflakes and malt

It is in Los Angeles and the game has just kicked off. Come on Tampa Bayyyyyy!

It's in Tampa.

This is the first Superbowl where a team has competed in their own stadium.

Think the game is in Tampa. First time a team has played a Super Bowl in their home stadium.

You're right. I stand corrected. I've been there so I should have recognised it, but when I was there the temperature was 110deg.F pitch side and the place was absolutely hoaching with water boys.

I'm also staying up for the Super Bowl (basically a neutral after my adoptive team had their customary exit in the NFC championship) although I suspect I wouldn't have slept that well anyway with the radar starting to look more interesting for here. I can report lying snow (about a light covering) in Freuchie.

The wind is starting to shift to quite a nice direction for more of the Forth convection to head down the M8, and the southern band is stronger than I've seen it all day. Probably worth a lamp post check at half time

Usual Brady/Gronk combo.

Buccs looking strong.

Good stop by KC but the Buc's defence is terrifying, KC just don't look like the same team at the moment. If they can keep it within 10 they can probably come back but hard to beat a pass rush like that against backups.

totally agree, chiefs look totally off their A game and Tampa are all doing their jobs.....as seen in playoffs last year though KC can turn it on in an instant and score a pile but not against a defence like this at the top of their gamer i dont think.

Back to weather, and I'm really quite impressed by how much the convection is pepping up east of the Forth - not as intense as the convergence line to the north but starting to stretch out pretty far:

I suppose the 49ers last year were on the same level defensively, and gave them similar struggles, but always hard to beat Brady in the playoffs.
