11:53:00 o'clock GMT
Wet and fairly windy start to the day, although some brightness is discernible on the eastern horizon. The weather radar shows a band of rain just moving northeast from the Butt of Lewis (the northern cape of the island, 25 miles from Stornoway), followed by a scattering of showers. Mainland Scotland is under warning for substantial hillsnow.
Out in the South Pacific, Cyclone Funa is now at hurricane strength, and may reach category 3 on the Saffir-Simpson scale. Its eastern outliers may sweep Fiji through tomorrow (GMT), which will leave the place rather wet. Funa will remain over the open ocean, but is heading south. Puts me in a bit of a worry for New Zealand, which lies south of Fiji. This is long-term forecasting, and bearing in mind the unpredictability of tropical cyclones, is a hazardous assumption to make. Watch this space.

It's snowing here, beautiful and sticking now. It took several hours longer to get started than predicted originally. It's okay -- just we'd like enough to "have" to stay in some:)
