Default 12" to 24" in 35 miles

Yesterday saw 12" of snow in Aberfeldy and reports of 24" in the
Braco, Greenloaning, Auchterarder area. These towns are 35 miles south
of me. Stirling had a couple of inches 10 miles of so south of say
Braco.

Braco is roughly the same asl or so as I am so it seems strange to me
that 35 miles would result in such a difference. I am not doubting the
reports but I would welcome an official reading just to highlight the
anomalie.

That all said when i drive from here to Stirling, as I often do, I
often remark to my father that the rain always seems to start just
before I hit Braco and ends at Dunblane.

My rain converted total for the snow 0900-0900 25th Feb was 40mm
