While there was no snow down here in the Central Belt, I decided to make a trip up north to where there was plenty. Roughly 150 miles north, northeast of Glasgow and 58 miles due west of Aberdeen, tucked deep within the Grampian Mountains is the beautiful, picturesque village of Braemar. Myself and Operations Director, Lhyam decided […]
Scotland Another chilly night across the country with a widespread frost. Coldest parts will be where snow lies and also in sheltered areas as winds will freshen from the southeast. While air temperatures are less cold than of late, -1 or -2 coupled with a brisk wind will make it feel cold with a noticeable wind […]
Courtesy of Daily News Northeast A fine, dry, sunny and near seasonal next 48 hours will dominate the Northeast today and Friday with high pressure firmly in control. Cool but not cold for New England with highs in the upper 30s while 40s bring comfortable conditions throughout the rest of the Northeast. Inland parts stretching from western upstate New York down […]
As an area of precipitation advances into western Scotland tonight into Thursday morning, snow is expected from Dumfries and Galloway up through Ayrshire, extending into Greater Glasgow and up through the West Highlands. [s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_level1)] This snow is likely to whiten many parts away from the immediate coast including Glasgow with perhaps an inch […]
Scotland Yet another cold night to come and likely the last proper cold night for a while as milder Atlantic weather moves in late tomorrow. Expect towns and cities to return to 0/-4C territory tonight while rural areas fall to between -3/-6C, some Highland/Grampian Glens may approach -10C. An odd snow shower is possible here and there just like we […]
After a few days of impressive cold, particularly at night all the way to Texas, as expected, this cold is now weakening as it tries going east, in fact it fails and this cold will weaken on the spot as heights rise. The culprit for the lack of cold in the East is the negative PNA. The pattern is much […]
The accummulative effect of cold combined with clear skies and light winds sets the stage for what is likely to be the UK’s coldest night yet, highs today failed to hit freezing for many and this sets a cold base for a sharper fall in temperatures widely overnight, fog formation and a thin bank of cloud pushing into parts […]
Scotland For many inland parts, the temperature failed to crack the freezing mark today following the coldest night of the season for the Central Lowlands. While the coldest place overnight was Tulloch Bridge where the low hit -10.5C, Glasgow Airport fell to -8C, Edinburgh -6C. Many places outwith towns and cities fell to between -7 and -9C last night. Temperature […]
A powerful storm system crossed the Northern Tier of the US through the weekend bringing the season’s first real blizzard to the Dakotas and western Minnesota. As the system slid east during Sunday it brought Minneapolis it’s 4th largest December snowstorm with a dump of 10.5 inches. Sacred Heart, MN recorded the largest snow total of 17 inches.

The next few days will challenge the coldest weather we’ve seen yet across the UK and Ireland and I think most of you will agree, it’s been, for the most part, pretty chilly from late November till now. The month is running slightly below normal and it’s certainly not like last December where it was […]
