Would you believe it, it's happening yet again!!


Tonight is another night when the temperature was supposed to get to well below freezing and we did very briefly, get an official air frost at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh before it then turned cloudier with the temperature jumping back up as a result. Now yet again, the temperatures are refusing to drop as a result of there being too much cloud around and at the moment, we just seem destined to never again, get any proper frosts in this part of the world for the rest of this complete non-event which is known as this "winter".


Meanwhile, the temperature at 8pm this evening was 0.1°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank, 0°C at Edinburgh Airport and 0.1°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh.


 


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.

This part of the World is certainly jinxed when it comes to frost, the wind that kept it away last night has dropped, but as soon as it did so in came a blanket of cloud lifting the temp from around 0.5 to around 1c. Looking at the temperature profile around the UK most places are below zero - how do they escape all this cloud and wind. I see Edinburgh is getting the same conditions as Wooler - I guess we'll just have to wait for a gentle southerly?
