Still snowed in in Dundee
 

Still over 30 cm of snow, -5.5 last night, and nothing moving here.

For descriptions of the chaos the online Dundee Courier (that most
esteemed organ) is full of tales of everyday folk getting stuck in
their cars.

I have a collection of snow photographs towards the end of my album at:

I'm told by others it works.

Konqueror takes me to an Apple mobile login page. Seems as if I might need
an i-phone or i-pad to see anything.

Tried to dig my own car out of the snow in Dundee today. Gave up. I
estimate about 90% of cars in Dundee are still stuck in side roads. Only
a limited bus service on priority routes. All schools still closed.

Roof collapse in Dundee city centre - see
http://www.thecourier.co.uk/News/Dun...g-consort.html

Also snow brought down a tree on top of a care home in Brought Ferry.

Spectacular footage of the snow lightning - the lightning was striking
the wind-turbines at the Michelin tyre factory - see

My

gutters are in danger too.

After three hours the car is free and down by Lundie church hall, so IF
there isn't too much more snow and IF I can get up to the Coupar Angus
road I'm quite confident of at least getting to Kingsway Tesco tomorrow
and stocking up on red wine and bird food. (Please tell me Tesco is
still open ... I never thought I'd look so much forward to shopping!)

I think I don't really understand lightning in snow. Presumably the
clouds above were cumulonimbus, and there must have been enough
convective energy to force ice up and down the cloud? And that energy
still came from the temperature difference between the top and bottom
of the cloud, so even though it was very cold at the surface, it was
much, much colder at the top? Or is this too much of a simplification?
Or just plain wrong?
