Strathdon/Corgarff or the Cabrach would be my choice if you really want to go for snow! 

Otherwise, just pick somewhere high. A friend lives at 300m just off the Tarland Road and gets noticeably more snow than even we do at this relatively snowy exposed location.

I’d say Upper Deeside over to Strathdon would give you a considerably good chance of the snow and frequency of it you desire

The Tarland area is a great spot for good snowfall

Just after 7pm and hit -10C. The coldest temperatures are expected early Thursday.

Bit of a shock going outside from 20C indoors 

I wonder who's weather stations will have the biggest inside and outside difference tonight,sweepstake?

That would mean knowing/guessing who has a "hot" missus (mr) or a "cold" missus (mr).

I'll take a punt at -21.2C for a purely outside temp (official).

I don't even know how low mine CAN go.....

I had to tell Weather Display to ignore -19C because when there is wind and rain, we sometimes get the temperature reading -19C for a second or so. So I assume, being presumably a voltage issue, -19C is the lowest my station can read?

EDIT:

For those waiting for a reading - we are now at -5.9C....

-4.6c so far but still very cloudy, enough even for some flakes falling. Hopefully once that lifts the temp will drop further.
