Proper Scottish winter weather for Christmas

Post by pagoda »

Excluding the Express "weather bomb" hype it will be getting progressively windier from Wednesday onward , seriously nasty from Xmas eve to Boxing day. Just hope everything is tied down well. Just a series of deep lows being fired at us across the Atlantic, but more potent than usual because of a well established Azores high. Just wait for the BEEB to start the panic....

Who knows about the week after!
