same with M90 for Fife - Thursday.

its hope it doesnt end up like this:

yes thats a W124 under there!

after digging it all out (did this a few times!)

part of me wishes it does (as i have winter tyres and the kids will enjoy it etc).... then again it causes havoc work-wise!

Modernised to look like an Alfa 155.

Or does it? Is it forecast to snow on the M77 Thursday?

Maybe.

Frequent and occasionally heavy snow showers are likely across the north and northwest of Scotland on Thursday, particularly on high ground. Accumulations of locally 5 to 10 cm are possible on ground above about 200m, with a risk of as much as 15 cm above around 300-400m. Drifting is likely in strong westerly winds. At low levels some temporary deposits of snow are possible, mainly in the far north. Icy surfaces will be an additional hazard, including at low levels, where surfaces freeze following showers and lasting into Friday morning. The public should be aware of possible disruption to transport.

11pm weather update - moist and temperate. No frost developing on the cars.

BBC Local weather (G72) suggesting 4C overnight - too warm for snow.

 

[LTD]

Cold, grey and damp.

That's the weather - not me !!!
