Last night was once again our warmest night of the year so far with an overnight minimum temperature of 13.37°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank, 13.59°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh and around 13°C at Edinburgh Airport.
Today was our warmest day of the year so far with a maximum temperature of 22.83°C at Edinburgh Airport (the first 20+°C maximum of this year at that particular station), 23.47°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh and around 23°C at Edinburgh Airport.
Today wasn't quite as sunny as yesterday overall due to additional cloud cover earlier on and so, a total of only 7.8 hours of sunshine has been recorded for today so far at Edinburgh Gogarbank. However, this evening has become progressively sunny once again and the total for this month is now up to 62.8% of the 1991-2020 May average at that particular station with a week to go until the end of the month, so the deficit for this month is still continuing to be made up as head towards yet another sunnier than average month which has now become the norm for this time of year in particular.
It's another warm evening here in Edinburgh as well with the temperature still at around 20°C, and I'm now finding that I'm beginning to swelter a bit in this little flat of mines here in NW Edinburgh.
