Another wild morning. Gusts over 60 mph for several sites in Scotland, 103 mph at Anoch Mor and 93 mph at Cairngorm
The garden is being battered! It's 7 C at present with light rain blowing around. I won't be going up the hill this morning 😆

There was also some overnight rain which cleared away for a short period of time this morning but this morning has started off on a dull and overcast note and as I write, the rain has also returned once again, so it's not exactly a nice day for being about and about with this of course, being in complete contrast to the predominately dry and high pressure dominated pattern of weather which we experienced at around this time last year, and which led to us experiencing our sunniest spring on record.
However, it is also mild (since it's no longer winter, I'm no longer bothered about that although it feels more like autumn just now, rather than spring) with a temperature of around 9°C here 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.
