10.5 here in Exeter and has been since 6pm - so just as boring and rubbish!
Yes, but you are in the SW of England where you would at least, expect it to be milder than the rest of the UK on average. Here in Scotland though, I am a lot further north which means that we should at the very least, be expecting it to be a bit colder here on average than what it is down your way in Exeter.
Apart from that, it's not as though I'm actually looking for any sort of extreme weather to occur here. All that I am therefore asking for, is just something to actually happen even if that is something as trivial as a weather front which moves through and brings us a bit of actual recorded rainfall, even if that isn't all that much. Anything at all just now would least break the monotony a bit and yet, it is as though even that has been too much to ask for over the last few months.
At the moment, the clouds have broken up a bit with some early sunshine, but our almost constant borefest and frost-free hell goes on with quite a lot of cloud and nothing else which is even remotely interesting, actually happening.
It is however, still very windy with maximum gusts at Edinburgh Gogarbank of up to 42.3mph from the west as at 8am this morning.
Last night's overnight minimum temperature was 9.6°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank, 10°C at Edinburgh Airport and a ridiculously mild 10.1°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh.
Meanwhile, the temperature at 8am this morning was 10.8°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank, 11°C at Edinburgh Airport and 10.7°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh, so there isn't even much of a diurnal temperature range just now.

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.
