Overcast with nothing really happening as usual and so, the borefest goes on in one of the most boring parts of the UK when it comes to our weather.

92%RH, 996.5mb rising slowly

Rather overcast, and with the current 12.8 c & 96% h under lighter wind and after 9.6 mm of rain fell overnight, it is now as moist as Warren Beatty's middle finger.

It was also raining a short while ago and although this hasn't yet resulted in any recorded rainfall for today at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh, a total of 0.2 mm of rain has now been recorded for today so far at Edinburgh Gogarbank as at 12 noon.

This morning's minimum temperature was 3.5°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank, 4°C at Edinburgh Airport and 4.6°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh.

Meanwhile, the temperature at 12 noon was 5.1°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank, 5°C at Edinburgh Airport and 5.6°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh so it's a little bit colder today than what it was yesterday, though still not all that cold for this time of year.

Sun's just popped out, thus lifted temps to 13.1 c. Just a shame that the sun sets at about . . . now.

The dross goes on and on with yet another cloudy day. Now just one day (Friday) in two weeks with as much as 1.5 hours of sunshine

Vile temperatures as usual with a max of only 4.8C but no frost. Utterly pathetic and the worst winter climate on earth. 

Hi, Ian! Sunny intervals (but not for much longer!), light westerlies and 12.2 C @ 94% RH doesn't feel too bad at all.

Pressure has fallen to 993mb.

Today has been yet another dark and dismal day which in end, has resulted in nothing in the way of sunshine being recorded for today at Edinburgh Gogarbank yet again. This means that this winter has now started off with two back to back sunless days which together, have made up a completely sunless weekend that I will now just be glad to see the back of.

There has also been some light rain and drizzle at times which has resulted in the measly small total of 0.8 mm of rain being recorded for today so far at Edinburgh Gogarbank as at 4pm this afternoon along with 0.6 mm at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh.

Today's maximum temperature was 5.8°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank, 6°C at Edinburgh Airport and 5.9°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh.

Meanwhile, the temperature at 4pm this afternoon was 5.4°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank, 6°C at Edinburgh Airport and 5.8°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh.

Can you imagine the difference between sunny spells and 15 C compared to dull, damp 3 C 😲

Between 14.5C and 13.6C all day- 13.8 now. Quite something for December; at leat the models don't (currently) look like a 2015 all over again!

The rain has become much heavier here as the evening has gone on with the exception of a brief respite from that a short while ago, and it is also very misty here as well. This has now taken today's rainfall totals so far as at 8pm this evening to 2.8 mm at Edinburgh Gogarbank and 2.8 mm at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh. This means that today will after all, now go down as the first official rain day of both this month and this winter at both of those stations.

With all of this going on, the temperatures are once again refusing to drop due to there being too much cloud. In fact, the temperature has actually gone up a bit over the last few hours which for two of my three local stations, was enough to take the temperature to above the maximum temperatures which were reported earlier on by both myself and Jerry on this thread. This now brings today's more up to date maximum temperature to 6.0°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank and 6.5°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh with the maximum temperature at Edinburgh Airport remaining unchanged at 6°C.

Meanwhile, the temperature at 8pm this evening was 5.9°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank, 6°C at Edinburgh Airport and 6.2°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh.

At least in the Northern areas your temperatures are closer to being seasonal.
