My target for 2016 is to climb at least 3 munro’s (Scottish mountain above 3,000ft) and by that I mean entirely on foot and not using mechanical aid such as chair lifts etc. At 5am Wednesday (13th) morning, I scraped the frost off my car and set off for Aonach Mor, located roughly 7 miles N of Fort William.

Plenty of folks, mainly above 100m are waking to their first covering of snow this morning along with below freezing wind chills. Many of you who have stepped out this morning will have felt the difference, a drier, more biting cold representative of arctic air. Thanks to sunny skies, here’s a view of the Northern UK […]

It’s 4.45am and about to hit the road after defrosted my car. Thermals are on and taking the 2.5 hour drive up to Fort William where I am attempting to summit Aonach Mor elevation 4,006ft, 8th highest in UK today. This would be my 5th munro (Scottish mountain above 3,000ft) and most challenging given the solid winter conditions now […]

The combination of system and lake effect is bringing heavy snow squalls through the Great Lakes and across the Northeast today. With lakes waters so warm and ice free it’s like lighting the fuel for major snowfall to the lee of all the lakes, especially Erie and Ontario. [s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_level1)] It was a chilly start […]

It’s kinda an all or nothing upcoming 5-7 day period for us. This ‘cold spell’ will be nothing special if we don’t get much in the way of snow on the ground except the higher elevations but with a widespread snow cover and with a 1032 surface high covering the UK, there’s the potential for […]
