Here in Edinburgh, we have just had a few spots of rain in the last 24 hours, but nothing more than that.


The main band of rain fragmented as it approached here and just about missed us to our east before reforming and pepping up again, just to our north.


That has been an almost constant ongoing story in recent days and it means that NE Scotland along with most of the rest of the UK is continuing to see plenty of rain from these weather fronts (as the Doc or Richard from Aberdeen will no doubt report on here later on) whilst Edinburgh continues to get next to nothing at all from that.


Furthermore, I was watching Gavin P.'s live stream last night and on there, I notice that the GFS model has now backed away from its wetter than average scenario for here over the coming 10 days.


Earlier on in Brian's September outlook video on YouTube, there were another couple of charts which showed us getting more than our entire month's rainfall in that same time frame but recent events have probably proved beyond doubt now, that there was never going to any chance of those charts actually verifying as it is never anything else here any more, other than drier than average these days.


That indeed, continues to be something which I can't see changing any time soon here.

Here in Edinburgh, today's showers have resulted in a further 4.6 mm of rain being recorded during today at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh but although the rain was very heavy (and almost torrential) here for a while during this afternoon, just a measly 0.2 mm of rain was recorded out of all of that at Edinburgh Gogarbank which shows how very localised these events can be.


I can report though that even though it is now very late at night as I write, there are some further showers in our vicinity, so our rainfall totals could yet end up being a bit higher by tomorrow morning than what they are just now.

26mm so far today and plenty more to come from these intense showers. Up to 49mm for September already which accounts for about 17% of the annual rainfall so far this year, in 8 days.
