After a promising start to today, the clouds have thickened up once again and caused this afternoon to descend into yet another dull and overcast nothingness with yet more in the way of constant grey skies and little else actually happening.
The end result of this is that a total of just 2.0 hours of sunshine has now been recorded for today so far at Edinburgh Gogarbank as at 5pm this afternoon, but with nothing at all in the way of any recorded sunshine since 1pm today.
Today's maximum temperature was 18.4°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank, 18°C at Edinburgh Airport and 16.7°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh, so it was warmer than what it was yesterday but with a maximum temperature which fell well short of that 21°C mark which the BBC were forecasting for here today.
Meanwhile, the temperature at 5pm this afternoon was 17.7°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank, 17°C at Edinburgh Airport and 16.0°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh.
