It has absolutely chucked it down for a good part of the day at Glencoe, with 10-12 inches of new snow fall according to the rain radar today.
One of the few times you could see anything at the top of the Access Chair was a brief clearing at lunchtime:
The Access Chairlift is reopening after it's almost half a million pound electrification. It's available for sightseeing and touring, there isn't yet enough snow or consolidated base to open other uplift for proper lift served snowsports - yet, but the Access Run was skied on Friday. The snow was heavy and sticky in the afternoon at that level, but should improve with a frost expected overnight with some further snow showers.
It will be a bit combat, but for those wanting to go for a hike / tour, or just play in the snow, it should be possible to carefully get a lift assisted run back to the base!
