Default [wr]Aberfeldy, showers merging

After a day of mod to heavy snow showers then a wee thaw, the odd break etc
the showers are merging and accumulation has begun.

Just back from a trip into town and was making fresh tracks on the main
road. I then took the dog across the valley floor, mistake. The wind was
stiff and the snow horizontal. I was bent double on the way back as my eyes
and face were being pierced by thousands of little ice daggers (you can see
I am getting carried away).

As I look outside now, it's a whiteout and the radar looks tasty.

calling Comrie/Wishaw/Whistlefield update..

.....and here's the Comrie update:

Occasional sunny periods throughout the day with snow flurries. Two
periods of light to moderate snow showers lasting no more than 30 mins.
Slight thaw, accumulation about 1cm (if I look hard). The 1600 radar
looks much more active, but still not seeing any real action. Glen Ogle
shows temp -2.6 @ 1500, we have 0 - +1, about what I would expect. Not
particulary windy, more like the odd blustery breeze from a gust front.

Cheers

John

Light snow showers today in Wishaw, with a near equal thaw in between.
Heavier and more prolonged in the last hour, we have around a 1 or 2 cm
cover now.
Timelapse footage shows a few flurries, hopefully a white scene in the
morning.
