All the forecasts I’ve seen for the start of next week clearly show that we are in for an icy blast. The wind will swing and come in from the East bringing in very cold russian/scandic air flows. What does this mean for us? Well its going to be cold, very very cold. The east coast will get a some snow, depends how much moisture is in the air as to how much will fall, sadly however, now don’t quote me on this, but I think the western half of the UK will not get as much snow as the east, since the snow will tend to fall on the eastern side.

After yesterday’s breif flurry of snow, today has seen a much greater snowfall, all in the space of 30 minutes, the grass is now white, and a nice covering on cars and pavements, the roads are becoming slughy now too. Hope this keeps up! Although I do have a 3am start tommorow!

There will be a video clip to follow shortly. (when its been converted)

Well were are coming to the end of November 08 and here in Scotland we are looking at forecasts showing the 3rd noteable arctic blast! The first was in October, but multiple forecast sites are now prediciting more snow and cold temperature for the beginning of December! This has been quite a remarkable start to the winter, perhaps the waxwings were right?

Hopefully we’ll see some snow in glasgow this time!

If you get tired of never seeing any snow, then there are places not too far away where you will get pretty much garuanteed snow after christmas, just check out this example of swedish snow fall, this took only a few hours to accumulate!
