In the end, a total of 1.0 mm of rain fell during yesterday at Edinburgh Gogarbank along with 0.4 mm at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh.

The Sun is already shining here in Edinburgh as we have now returned to our more typical clear and sunny mornings for now.

However, there was a cloudier period during the early hours of this morning and although the temperatures then resumed their downwards trend once that had cleared away, this was enough to completely scupper our chances of getting an official air frost at any of my three local stations which means that our frost-free hell goes on here.

This of course, might not have been so bad if we had at least got some interesting weather out of of that just like what the vast majority of people who have posted on this thread during this morning so far have been getting in their own part of the world.

But no, this shows once again that getting any sort of weather which is even remotely interesting in this part of the world is usually always asking for too much, and that is why I always refer to this particular location, as the most boring part of the UK when it comes to our weather.

Meanwhile, the temperature at 8am this morning was 2.0°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank, 0°C at Edinburgh Airport and 1.8°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh.

I envy you four, all we can usually hear is traffic or aircraft taking off or landing!

Just been photographing some snowdrops - a sure sign that the least rewarding and fulfilling season of the year is on the way out. Sat in the sun at the moment but well wrapped up.

Cloudy but bright, with a brisk WNW breeze; dry at the time of posting but showers earlier this morning gave 1.8mm rainfall.

6.2*C after a minimum of 6.0*C from 4.45am to 5.30am.

Did I read this right?

Delighted to see a positive comment from one of our well-known members in Aberdeen.

There was some high cloud around to begin with this morning, but there has been plenty of fairly lengthy sunny spells during this morning which means that a total of 2.5 hours of sunshine has been recorded for today so far at Edinburgh Gogarbank.

Last night's overnight minimum temperature was 2.0°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank, 0°C at Edinburgh Airport and 1.1°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh.

Meanwhile, the temperature at 12 noon was 5.5°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank, 6°C at Edinburgh Airport and 6.3°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh.

I would savour that moment though, but it is something which you don't see very often, and something which doesn't usually last for any length of time.

Turned much colder with steady rain just turning up. Was at 5.9C now down to 3.8C.

I do believe in positive feedback.

Back on-topic, just had a light shower, but too little to measure.  Quite fresh in the brisk NW breeze, as temp. has dropped to 5.9*C.

After a rather cloudy damp morning, the sun is trying to break through as I type this.

Also a more chilly fresh 6.8 c & 82% h with a brisk NW breeze adding a chill to it.

Sunny intervals, recent wintry shower consisting of graupel, sleet and soft hail. 5.3 C @ 84% RH and pressure @ 997 mb, rising. Light NW winds.

No precip since the a.m. and the afternoon has been pretty lovely with a near perfect P.M. airmass providing a nice cloudscape whilst the short sunny spells hinted at spring to come. Yum!

Today's maximum temperature was 6.3°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank, 7°C at Edinburgh Airport and 7.3°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh.

Meanwhile, the temperature at 4pm this afternoon was 5.0°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank, 5°C at Edinburgh Airport and 6.1°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh.

That has taken us into an evening where this still some cloud around, but also some clear spells as well.

Meanwhile, the temperature at 8pm this evening was 3.4°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank, 3°C at Edinburgh Airport and 2.9°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh.
