Snow levels in Braemar have now reached more than 2ft (70cms) breaking the previous unofficial record of 68cms 20 years ago. The Beast from the East Two continues to bring severe weather to the UK and blanket the Cairngorms National park in heavy snow. Temperatures overnight 8th to 9th February 2021 fell to -14 with deeper lows predicted for the following nights.
The village of Braemar sits high up in the Cairngorms National Park, close to Glenshee Ski Centre, at an altitude of 339 metres. This film shows current conditions around the village and the extent of freezing, which has created some wonderful icicles along the buildings. The Braemar Gathering Games Pavilion is now buried in snow and difficult to get to within the Park. Local deer are also struggling to forage for food and have come close to the village. The slow air music is called 'The Beauty of Cromar Before Me' composed and performed by talented fiddle player Paul Anderson from nearby Tarland.
