Meanwhile, there is still some medium to high level cloud around but we are now also seeing a lot more in the way of sunshine.

The skies appear to be fairly clear just now as I write and the wind appears to have died down a bit, yet the temperatures are now refusing to drop and remain stuck at around 1°C here in Edinburgh as I write.😡

Technically a penetrating frost which is unusual with winds from this direction.

Enough chill if that is the correct term, to keep the remaining snow cover in place until the sun rises.

Late last night it was still and -1.1C

Last night's overnight minimum temperature at Edinburgh Gogarbank was -1.8°C and once again, this means that last night wasn't quite as cold as the previous night but even with that, an official air frost was still recorded at all three of my local stations.

This has brought about a bright start to today with plenty of sunshine although there is still some cloud around.

Currently around +2°C here in Edinburgh.

Unsurprisingly it was a milder day here, too - a peak of 6.9 earlier. It's now down to 1.7, dew -0.7, so there's a chance of another air frost - that would be three in a row.

And a bit of old Kentish weather lore - my old gran used to say "three frosts and it wets itself", and it's probably going to be true this time.  I guess a brief cold snap in November isn't that unusual!

4.9c max here today. Unlike you though, really struggled to scrape below 0c temps during this cold snap. Just too much residual shower clouds streaming down from the NW throughout. 

To be fair, I only scraped two frosts by the smallest possible margin: -0.1C twice in a row. Still, at least there *was* a frost here! 😁

4.6c high today, higher than expected, meant snow cover further diminished. Still patches left in the garden and on roofs/raised surfaces.  Let's see what tomorrow morning brings, at best 2-3 hours of snow. 

The temperatures are now slowly and gradually falling away once again and as I write, the temperature is around 0°C here in Edinburgh.

With that, we will probably go on to get another air frost although that hasn't quite happened just yet but I would imagine that this will probably now be our last cold night before Storm Bert results in that being it for our "winter" (at least for now).

I'm on the train back to Edinburgh after a day visit to see my daughters in snowy Nottingham. They still have 3-5 cm, the 5th day of snow lying. 3cm at 50m altitude today, 5cm at 110m.

In Edinburgh, although a sunny week with no snow my minimum temps since Monday have been

-5

-5

-5.5

-5 

-3 this morning

Looks like it is already -3 at 21:30 in Edinburgh and reports of -15 C in the Highlands

A noteable late autumn cold spell 🥶

Lets see what contrasts the weekend brings.....take care

Yes, no frost but still very cold at the surface. All change in a few hours though

Yesterday's high was 6.9.
