Scotland/Alba weather discussion - Jan 2021 onwards

[Norrance]

Notice about forty + pigeons on the roof of the semi behind me. They must be getting heat. Their insulation must be crepe as all the other roofs in the street are covered in snow.

Epic stuff again

[GoldenJackel]

Looks to have been about 4 inches for here in the last two hours. Quite incredible and much more than expected!

[JoeShmoe]

Anyone from Dundee, they must be getting plastered there ... 

[Gogoslo]

We have doubled the amount of snow on the last 45 mins.  Great stuff.  I think I may call another snow afternoon for the kids...  Maths can wait...

Hi everyone bee sent home from work due to weather getting worst  sky is black as anything and looks like it’s on all night again

[jon_d1983]

It’s stopped in Altens just now  

[Snowplough33]

Slowly becoming buried from this stream ...... very 2010 ish.
2018 was very high winds and didn’t give us depth like this.

biblical stuff here, 2cm on a path that was cleared 10 mins ago. Proper snowstorm lasted 45 mins and still looks to continue for a few hours , 22cm snow depth here. Should be red warnings

[Ruzzi]

[Penicuikblizzard]

When is the convergence zone expected to move into the Forth?

So that 80 minute streamer in Aberdeen around midday gave 5cm at my house - total is now 11cm.
