  1. In 2010 I had really good winter rubber on my BMW and led many a poor soul into trouble, all of those folk thinking if a beemer can manage that then we're bound to be ok
  2. Yep, I remember that in 2018 too. It was like sitting in the cleft of a forked stick and watching the inbound streamers split to go north and south of us with just a smattering left over as scant consolation. Hopefully this time will be different.
  3. I'm on the southeast side of East Lomond and if that happens it is going to make for some spectacular weather watching.
  4. That was an incredible evening, exceptional in the extreme. 10 hours of electrical activity. There was a quieter period between 1:30am to 5:30am and then an epic re-awakening. Torrential rain out the front of the house, but relatively little wind, yet out the back of the house there was hail the size of garden peas and ferocious winds.
  5. Absolutely unrelenting, this is incredible. 2+ hours of non stop electrical activity.
  6. Certainly a lot more snow in Glenrothes today, we largely watched everything slip north or south of us yesterday. Oddly enough the snow on the road in front of the house is staying around 4"-5" deep as the wind is continually scouring off the top.
  7. Thanks. I regret not walking up to see it in 2010, if it stays cold enough this time I will definitely head up.
  8. A nice wee shower coming through now with a flash of lightning and peel of thunder. Hopefully this is the start of something a bit more notable for Glenrothes now
  9. So frustrating eh? Looking at the radar there does seem to be a lovely dark red blob that is better placed to give us a doing. I even went out to clear the driveway and road to goad the snaw gods a wee bit and encourage them to whump us!
  10. Happy to hear so many snaw stories from others, but i'm still watching too much slide by just to the south of me. I thought being relatively high up on an east facing hill would have see me covered by now.
  11. Yep, 10-15 miles further north and we would be mullered, but it seems we are destined to watch it slide south of us.
  12. I had hoped that the Tay/Forth basin would have been a bit like a funnel and we would have had a good dolloping flowing over the top of us, but it seems to be the opposite just now with a still slightly northern element to the wind. All a little anticlimactic for now for snow at least. The cold is living up to the hype.
  13. 3rd heavy shower within the last hour, starting to look much more purposeful.
  14. Had a good wee spell 30 mins or so ago that cleared to a lovely blue sky and now back into showers again. In the clear spell and looking out ESE over the mouth of the estuary it was smashing to see the convective clouds starting to build and tower. Reassuring to actually see evidence of that happening that is not just on a laptop screen.
