Here in Edinburgh, we are now into day 23 of the absolute drought at both Edinburgh Gogarbank and the botanic gardens in Edinburgh. Here, I am in one of the areas which was forecast to see a possibility of some showers in the latter part of this afternoon.
However, there are no signs of that happening yet. The Sun has broken though as has been the norm for this month and all of the rain which is shown on the radar looks to be to a long way away and much too far to the south for me to believe that we will actually see any of that today.
Therefore, the drought in this part of the world goes on and after that, we are not likely have another chance of getting any rain until Monday according to the latest forecasts.
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.
