First of all, I can report that I won't be doing my usual update here at 12 noon today since I have other more important commitments at that time.
Not that there's much to report anyway, that is actually all that interesting.
This morning has started off on a dull and overcast note with some light rain, but this has resulted in a total of just 0.2 mm of rain being recorded for today so far at Edinburgh Gogarbank along with 0.2 mm at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh as at 8am this morning (for both of those stations, that is barely even worth reporting).
Last night's overnight minimum temperature was 8.2°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank, 8°C at Edinburgh Airport and 8.0°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh, but those temperatures were reached quite early during yesterday evening before the temperatures then shot again.
It is now very mild for the time of year and the temperature at 8am this morning was 12.4°C at Edinburgh Airport, 13°C at Edinburgh Airport and 13.1°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh.
The north of Edinburgh, usually always missing out on snow events which occur not just within the rest of Scotland or the UK, but also within the rest of Edinburgh.
