OMG the Snow Central Belt

[Scottie]

Not seen so much snow down in this area from oh it's got to be back in the mid 90's. Allan had been out with his measure 9" lying in Larbert:eek: it never snows like this down here.

The guy collecting his wheels can't get through to Larbert:( (the main reason I came down) worse than that I can't get home to Inverness A9 closed @ Blair Atholl and then again @ Dalwhinne:( but worse than that no camera down here to go out and take some pics :(but even worse than that my X is home at Inverness.:(

Why wouldn't you be working? Just 'cos of a few snow flakes?

[AndyP & Lenore]

I love this. Just checked out www.theaa.com traffic news. Apparently it is only snowing on one side of the road on the A7. See for yourself:

"A7 Snow on the road between Junction with B7007 and Gorebridge (junction with B6372) in Northbound direction"

WTF?

[zimbo]

Still snowing as heavy as anything here in Dundee. Could'nt believe it when i came down stairs this morning and looked outside, SNOW! and lots and lots of it... Hopefully no work tomorrow :D:p

What a superb day hav'nt had this much snow down in Cumbernauld for years, headed out a 9:30 this morning and Kerr got back in just after 5pm! yes we were freezing but well worth it.:p

[Scottie]

well headed North even though all sites was saying A9 Closed passed all the Bear Vans telling us road closed and just started to slow down at the gates near Blair Atholl and the police just opened them:cool: through the pass and there was hardly any snow:eek: but it was blowing off the hills and causing drifts on southbound carraigeway it was still closed.

[Craig]

glad you made it back safely :D:D

[Smitty]

I think aberdeen got missed this time!!

Go on....i challenge some you's to make a bigger snowman than i did:p;):D

I drove back from Glasgow at 2am on Sunday morning, took me over an hour. Defo the worst conditions I've ever driven in. Apparently loads of ppl slept in The Garage cos there were no taxis.
