I travelled far and wide yesterday. Moved about 3cm off the car in Kingussie and went off to Aviemore where there was only a dusting. Went to Carrbridge where there was about 3cm and temp was about 0C. Off down the A9 at 3pm there was about 10 cm in the Dalwhinnie/Drumochter area, -1C frozen slush on the road and some idiotic driving. Beautiful sunset, drifting snow off the tops catching the golden light, hundreds of deer and grouse at the side of the road and a golden eagle soaring overhead, magical.
Only an icy dusting at Bruar and nothing by Pitlochry. Very heavy wet snow and sleet coming over Sheriffmuir with the temperature hovering about 1/2C. Just the wrong side of marginal for what might have been a really good snow event in low lying areas.
4C and raining at the house in Glasgow, 7C today with the snow line on the Campsies slowly rising.
