All Eyes On Cairngorm

My secret sources (so secret, they're all in the sidebar) were suggesting last week that this week would be much cooler but as is usually the case, everything changed and the unusual mild conditions are set to continue for few more days.

Some long range boffins seem to be going for a colder than average winter this year. Given that our local forecaster couldn't get it right for the same day during the summer, I'll take that with a pinch of salt but with snowfall on the increasing year on year recently (still nothing like it used to be), maybe this will be the year we're snowed in for a week!

The number of locations in Europe recording snowfall is now on the increase and today snow has been mentioned in the forecast for the tops of the Scottish mountains this week. It's time to start checking out the web cameras at Cairngorm Mountain, when I see snow falling there, I'll know winter as arrived.

Best Season For Years

I've not posted any web cam images for while with us having plenty of snow pictures of our own but while we're waiting for the next possible snow event due tomorrow and Thursday, here's a snapshot of the conditions on Cairngorm Mountain in Scotland where they seem to be having the best skiing season for years. It's probably down to our visit to the top of the mountain back in December which heralded the start of the season for Cairngorm ..lol..
