We've already had sleet, the snow won't be far behind. NMM looks pretty tasty for some parts, hopefully we'll get a good covering over night as this would set us up nicely for a cold, crisp, crunchy weekend.

Apart from the other night when snow was forecast and I left the office in EK to horizontal sleet being propelled at me with great intensity on gale force winds! A degree or two lower would've given a genuine blizzard. Seems like reasonable prospects of overnight snow tonight though marginal.....

Looks like we may well be in for a night of radar watching and temperature reading after all. A tasty looking area of precip is heading towards us.
2010/2011: Amazing with 30 days of falling snow, more than 50 days of lying snow and a white Christmas plus a Big Freeze December.
2011/2012: Satisfactory with 20 days of falling snow, 10 days of lying snow and a good December for snow.

Some very low temperatures across the country right now. How low can it go!
Aboyne: -4.5C
Loch Glascarnoch: -4.3C
Aviemore: -3.2C
-5C will be reached, it's a question of whether -6C, -7C, -8C, -9C or -10C get reached.

Looks to shift further east as night turns to morning. A few isolated showers making it through to Western Perthshire give me a bit of hope but really the Forth-Clyde will be the northernmost limit of the front in all likelihood (winks to showers moving up from the south and hope they take the hin that they move north).
And having said that, it might well have worked - the NMM is suggesting the front will make it all the way up to Fife by the early hours. Still not absolutely convinced but who knows, it might be worth setting the alarm early to see if our luck's in for once! -1C here, so I don't foresee a marginality issue (unless that occluded front is in fact a warm front in disguise).

Still too early to rule out a white christmas, probably not blow torch but not extremely cold either.

You know LS - i think we may just be in for a wee snow surprise tomorrow a.m. Will be up early just to check!.
I think christmas is looking increasingly ok - average maybe - but probably just as well for those travelling on christmas day - thereafter we are all chilling out - so it can snow later!
