Yesterday was our sunniest day of this month so far with a total of 4.7 hours of sunshine at Edinburgh Gogarbank.
Sadly though, we won't be saying the same thing about today. Today started off on a fairly bright note with an official air frost at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh, but this was no more than a ground frost in other parts of the city and even then, there was already a lot of cloud around.
As today has gone on, that cloud has become more extensive with more of a wind around as well. As a result of that, it didn't take long for the frost to quickly disappear as our more typical winter borefest set in once again.
So far as at 1pm this afternoon, this has resulted in a total of 1.2 hours of sunshine being recorded at Edinburgh Gogarbank, but with nothing at all in that department for the last two hours.
In addition to that, it isn't even the least bit cold for this time of the year now and so, the temperature at 1pm this afternoon was around 6°C here in Edinburgh.
