Whoo hoo happy to live in Falkirk, also happy I drove the ancient camper to the garage earlier and didn't wait until tomorrow.

From my reading of it, it'll alternate between being split and fluctuating - I think it might be starting to move back north a bit in an hour or two and I certainly don't think places like Perth, for example, are at all out of it yet.

Am I right in thinking it then comes back down and funnels up the fourth ? Around the early hours ?

Been an exceptional 24 hours! 

Dundee has done great, 6-7cm at house , dundee still looks to in for another few cms tomorrow and still just in a yellow weather warning...
 

euro going for anywhere between 15-20 cm here, any accuracy in this, surely not another 10cm to fall in Tayside in 36 hours?

Possibly same as 2018...Linwood across to Greenock was a sweet point back then as heavy snow followed the Clyde.

That's exactly what I was hoping for, flags up 50-60cm (taken with a bucket of salt ofcourse), for livingston, Bathgate, Armadale, blackridge, Caldercruix. 

Definitely a correction I wanted to see. 

We have a decent covering already, maybe 3cm on the flat on average but some parts reaching 6-7cm with the wind. Just a pity the wind isn't stronger 

Definitely puts us more in the mix 

but I still say the nauld

when’s the next update 

[Cheggers]

Back door measuring stick. Excuse the muck, dogs in and out all night, they love it.

We're just on the southern edge of the Glasgow snow and have got a dusting. Cars coming  off the motorway are plastered. Picture of the showers over Glasgow (before everything turned white here) 

Hoping everything moves slightly further south!

pretty bullish week ahead from the Shaf... suggesting the cold wins out and high pressure builds again to the North/Scandi

[Jambo Fowler]

I'd say Perth will get hit with this line of showers .... or am I being delusional lol

[lorenzo]

Got permission to share this one from the UKV, snow totals out to Wednesday Evening.

Good to have the UKV model to review along with the other Hi Res output.. really good close up view of things so will happily shamelessly plug that it is available on Net Weather Extra. The 03z and 15z runs go out to 120 hours, with 00z, 06z, 09z, 12z, 18z and 21z runs which go out to 54 hours.

12z and 15z from today below..

Just been out for a wee walk and back at garden it’s measuring  2cm in last hour . 

[101_North]

Absolutely epic stuff just now! Walked to the garage and in 10mins probably an inch fell! Hammering it down! 

[sn0wman]

Edinburgh snow shield has broken... Heaviest snow I've seen since BFTE!

[scottishandy]

I'm interested in this little chap on Thursday, just in case I don't get any more in the meantime! 

[WhiteXmas]

Looking at the radar- Some really beefy showers looking they are going to track their way through Glasgow area and into Renfrewshire over coming hours

[Polar Side]

Amazing snow conditions now!

[bomdabass]

Showers seem to be on a straight line from Edinburgh City Centre to Glasgow City Centre, which is a shame as I'm 5 miles south of Glasgow City Centre. Fingers crossed the next couple of blobs stay south!

I'd think so, the timings are a bit up in the air really but generally it'll fluctuate back and forth between the main streamers being south of the Forth and along the Tay over the next 30 hours or so.

Much the same here although last blob has given us cm or 2. Incoming snow may looked more favourable for us in southside.

This might even go too south!

let's hope so Jambo that looks healthy still need that bit of luck, I love the fact despite all reports in here people are surprised by the intensity of the showers and the speed of accumulation.....Nothing better than that first big shower of the cold spell
