Reports will not be directly comparable with last week becaue the clocks will be an hour forward

Rather unusually for this spring through (although this month has been much wetter here than the same month last year), today has started off on a rather dull, wet and miserable note here in Edinburgh and it is also fairly windy.
This rain is expected to clear away fairly quickly during the course of the day though so even with that, I'm sure that the Sun will still be out later on as per usual. Once that happens, I will then be looking to those much later sunset times which will now occur as a result of the change of the clocks.
Last night was fairly mild as well although the temperature here in Edinburgh is currently only around 6°C as I write.
