I didn't think we'd catch any flakes here from this current cold snap,
primarilly due to the unfavourable northerly direction / shelter from the
highlands.
But sure enough, there's just been a brief flurry here. One of the CB's just
retained enough shape to make it over all that high ground I guess.
Very low humidity today, with the dew point falling as low as -10ºC at one
point this afternoon.
Alex.

There were flurries forecast but we ended up with a glorious sunny day
here in Edinburgh. Ok the wind was bitterly cold but was glad to see
the sun.

Very low humidity today, with the dew point falling as low as -10ºC at one
point this afternoon.

We've had quite a few light showers of snow and snow pellets today with a
very nasty wind.

Temperature about 5C now.

And as if by magic we get a small flurry.
