This is my first full winter as a resident of the Scottish Highlands -- and boy, did Mother Nature not disappoint! When I moved up to the Far North at the tail end of winter 2025, it was a very mild year; the first week of January 2026, by comparison, has been a properly old-school winter closer to what Scotland used to get forty and fifty years ago.

In this debut of the second season of The American Highlander, find out if this dumb American expat has sufficiently prepared for winter. Are there enough supplies? Enough firewood? What happens when we get snowed in and ice blocks the roads?
