Just woke up this morning and the village is covered.
Glad the game's not today or I wouldn't be making it out. How's it over in Edinburgh?

Roads are clear. About half an inch, if that, on the pavements. Blue skies appearing with the sun behind the clouds so might get a bit of a thaw.

There's a couple of today's games cancelled already, but both in the west (at Morton and Ayr Utd).

Forecast is for very cold but little to no snow. Only issue would be problems with undersoil heating

If the snow covering remains the same as it just now out my way I won't be able to make the journey tomorrow which is a pain

Went a run this morning.
Very little snow but it's compacted right down and frozen solid. Not the best for walking on. I'll be allowing plenty time to walk down to the game from where I park at Lochend tomorrow. Roads and pavements around there are always treacherous when it's coldPM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017. Probably robbed in other years

Livingston game called off. There is a minimal amount of snow out here, but that tinpot club can never seem to cope with any frost or snow.
I really they are relegated and piss off into obscurity where they belong

It’s pretty much the lowest geographical point in the town, almost every direction to leave the stadium is uphill
That said, there’s really no excuse for a match to be cancelled on a plastic pitch, there’s certainly no issue with the roads and paths in Livingston.

Plastic is supposed to be more weather resistant, and should be less likely to get waterlogged (which isn’t the issue here admittedly)
At this level, there’s no excuse for not having the heating on. However, with a grass pitch, there’s a chance that a heavy snowfall could cause the pitch to become waterlogged as the snow melts, that won’t be the case with a plastic one as it won’t absorb the water and should be drained off easily.
Also, how long does it take to thaw out a plastic pitch? It was an early morning inspection for this match, surely they could get the heating on and have it ready for an afternoon kickoff.

All flights in and out of Glasgow airport suspended due to snow.
There is no such thing as too much yarn, just not enough time.

Quite heavy snow in Renfrew/Paisley this morning. Airport is having problems. Apparently the snow we got overnight will be repeated tonight over Edinburgh

The UK will presumably implode in its usual pathetic annual fashion now there's been a few inches of snow
