There has been the odd sunny spell during today, but it has been overcast for most of the time and a total of just 18 minutes of sunshine has been recorded for the whole of today so far at Edinburgh Gogarbank as at 4pm this afternoon.
In addition to that, there has also been some brief drizzly showers around. These have barely been enough to even the wet the ground, so there has been no measurable rainfall from that as usual. However, these drizzly showers have felt rather unpleasant when you are out and about amongst them.
However, it is rather warm for the time of year and so, the temperature at 4pm this afternoon was 15.4°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank, 15°C at Edinburgh Airport and 15.6°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh.
