[William Downie]

We're midway between Edinburgh and Glasgow at 610 ft (186 m) asl.

It's -8C on my car thermometer this morning, after another probable ice day yesterday. It likely won't get above zero today either. Aside from a couple of brief thaws lasting only a day or two, we've had snow on the ground since 28th December, with 5 or 6 ice days. From what I've seen our coldest day was Fri. 8th, with a maximum of about -5C. The coldest night was -10C (can't recall when now). 

I see parts of England and Wales are getting snow today. I hope you enjoy it!
