A decaying weather front has finally brought a little bit of rain down from the NW, but has clearly never actually properly moved through as it is still overcast and very warm and muggy.

In the end, a total of 1.4 mm of rain fell during yesterday at Edinburgh Gogarbank along with 5.6 mm at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh.

Meanwhile, the temperature at midnight was 17.4°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank, 18°C at Edinburgh Airport and 17.9°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh so once again, this is not going to be very comfortable for trying to sleep.

We are heading northwards to Scotland for the weekend to sample some of this much talked about 'permacast hell'. 

Yes, you did mention in the Model Output thread that you were planning on coming to Edinburgh fairly soon and if it is this weekend that you are here, I can tell you that the forecast for here over the weekend isn't that bad apart from that permacast hell as you have mentioned. Regardless of what the weather is like though, I hope that you will enjoy your visit to this city.

Anyway, we have had a little taste of that permacast hell this morning as the day has dawned to yet another boring grey nothingness. The Sun is trying hard to be seen through that cloud, but there has been nothing at all in the way of sunshine recorded for today so far at Edinburgh Gogarbank as at 8am this morning.

Last night was very warm and sticky, and the overnight minimum temperature was 16.7°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank, 17°C at Edinburgh Airport and 16.2°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh.

Meanwhile, the temperature at 8am this morning was 18.9°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank, 19°C at Edinburgh Airport and 19.0°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh.

 A warm night with a low of 18.5C 

Current temp 23.0C

Mostly cloudy with occasional brief sunny intervals.

It’s 20°C and sunny here currently.

Beyond that I make no promises 

26.1C and 60% humidity and it's not even 10am yet. Glad I didn't have to go to London today!

A true summer's day with the sun screaming away in clear blue skies.

26.3 C & 47% H under calm air.

Cloud cover 74%   Sunny intervals. In the shade 23.0c. Outside 27.0c. Humidity 52% rh. 

1006.9 hPa. Breeze 4mph. SW.   Indoors 23.6c. 

Meanwhile, the temperature at 12 noon was 20.1°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank, 21°C at Edinburgh Airport and 19.9°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh.

I think 30C is very much likely now 🙂

Fine and sunny in Aberdeen. A few puffy clouds in the sky but nothing overly threatening or organised as yet. Currently a very muggy 24c at Aberdeen Airport.

There's a plague of hover flies though the likes I've never seen before. 

The scaffolders are just finishing off their work on our roof - up to chimney height - an impressive structure surrounding the entire building ahead of brickwork and re-slating.
A Met Office Yellow alert for thunderstorms 12:49 Fri 3 Aug and 21:00 Fri 3 Aug has just arrived in my In-box!

If you don't hear from me by tomorrow - all the best. KBO.
