Default [WR] Heavy Snow, Wanlockhead

will see some snow. I hope Steve has supplies as it doesn't look like
stopping all day for him and also on the occlusion pushing in tomorrow.


I was about to report that the temperature was rising slightly and the
snow was easing off - then the temp started falling again and the snow
is now coming down heavier than ever.

Temp now 0.4C, wind increasing and the snow's starting to drift. The
anemometer's clogged and showing 4 mph, I reckon it must be over 20mph.
We had 10cm level snow when I went out to the garage half an hour ago. I
love it here!

The snow plough came round earlier and the bus braved another trip - no
chance of that now in these conditions.
