It had looked for a while during this morning as though the Sun was going to break through but although there are still some bits of blue sky around, the clouds have generally filled in yet again and so, our summer borefest goes on with the result that a total of just 54 minutes of sunshine has been recorded for today so far at Edinburgh Gogarbank as at 12 noon.
In addition to that, the temperatures are also refusing to rise and so, the temperature at 12 noon was 17.3°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank, 17°C at Edinburgh Airport and just a rather disappointing 16.6°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh.
So far, I have to say that this has been one massive disappointment up until now, especially as today was forecast to be so much better than this.
