The skies are clear, but the temperatures are dropping only very slowly and were around 6°C at midnight.

Meanwhile, a total of 3.0 mm of rain fell during yesterday in the end, along with 1.2 mm at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh.

The Sun has now come out after a cloudy start to the day with a little bit of rain which wasn't even enough to be registered as actual recorded rainfall. Having said that though, it is still mostly cloudy with the Sun actually coming and going since I first submitted this post.

Last night's overnight minimum temperature was 4.1°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank, 3°C at Edinburgh Airport and 3.4°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh as too much cloud resulted in yet another frostless night in what has been a completely frostless month so far, although last night was actually the coolest night at all three of my local stations since the very first night of this month.

Meanwhile, the temperature at 8am this morning was 6.0°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank, 6°C at Edinburgh Airport and 5.5°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh.

While it is clear and quite sunny, there is still that nagging southerly wind making the current 12.9 c & 76% h feel cool and fresh - but it is helping to dry things up quickly after yesterday's 15.2 mm of rain.

Meanwhile, the temperature is around the 10°C mark just now, as at just after 12 noon.

A very pleasant day after yesterday's rain, which totalled 11.9mm.

Mainly cloudy. 8.3c. Humidity 72% rh.

Having said that though, the fact that it has now clouded over means that too much cloud (along with probably a wee bit too much wind as well) means that the temperature is probably going to be refusing to drop during tonight. At the moment, it is around the 10°C mark which is roughly, around the maximum for today.

I am still unable to get all of the data which I need to construct these reports properly, so I am relying on SEPA at the moment for some of the data regarding today's rainfall totals. What I can say though is that a total of 1.2 mm of rain has been recorded for today so far as at 8pm this evening at Edinburgh Gogarbank (where today will therefore go down as an official rain day as a result) along with about 0.8 mm at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh.

As I had expected though, too much cloud around means that the temperature is already refusing to drop, and is therefore still at around 9°C as at 8pm this evening.
