Lowest now at Corgarff in Upper Donside at -14.4C. Several locations in the Scottish Borders near -12C so it's not exclusively a Highlands affair.

Where are you getting the readings from?

-5dc and falling outside Glasgow

Here  possibly?

Although Weather Underground’s map  shows the stations too if you know where to look.

-3.1°C at 21:00.

Given the extreme heat we had in the summer and now this cold spell, I wonder if this year could be a contender for the greatest range in temperatures? 40°C in summer, then -20-something in December would definitely be something to remember this year for.

-8C and dropping 🥶

That's exactly where I'm getting the readings! Lee (highlandweather) makes all of his amazing network of stations available at that URL. I also scan the stations on Weather Underground.

Well there is one station in the Highlands now down to -11C making it the coldest I've seen this cold spell.

As at 11pm GMT (23:00 UTC) tonight, the temperature here in Edinburgh was already down to -4.9°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank and around -6°C at Edinburgh Airport.

This means that tonight will now go down as our coldest night of this entire year so far, regardless of what happens between now and the end of the night (which is officially the start of the next observation day at 9am GMT (09:00 UTC) tomorrow morning).

-11C here at Cragganmore and still dropping

-13 now in Townie - Aberdeenshire 

The lowest official value I have seen so far is -15.6°C although a number of stations in Aberdeenshire have minima below -17°C.

My garden thermometer is at -9 C this morning. Looks like Edinburgh Airport is the same.

Lowest on the Weatheronline hourly list is currently Aviemore at -12.8C but that doesn’t show all the stations in Scotland. 

I presume none of those -17C stations are official Met Office ones?

Almost, but not quite.

The lowest temperature at Edinburgh Airport according to the overnight half-hourly METAR data which is produced at 20 minutes past the hour and 10 minutes to the hour was -8°C, although that was still more than enough to give us our coldest night of this entire year so far.

Even at Edinburgh Gogarbank though, the overnight minimum temperature was -6.75°C and as I write, the temperature there as at 8am GMT (08:00 UTC) was still at -6.53°C.

Hit -12.4C , currently -12C , my weather station is at an elevation of 7 mtrs.  Crispy !! Methinks ice day today. 🥶

Yes, but the Braemar value is an official Met Office one.

-5.3⁰C at home in the city just now, much colder inland a bit.

Parts of Aberdeenshire have struggled to get above -10C today!! The location I mentioned last night is currently -11C however it did rise to around -10C earlier. 

We hit the dizzy heights of -8C for 10 minutes before it’s on its way down again , now that’s an ICE day !! , way it’s looking we might not go above freezing until Friday .  Spey is beginning to freeze over, it’s likely that -20C and below could well be achieved tonight as some places already -15 C
