Very windy with moderate but fairly persistent rain falling here in Edinburgh.
The wind at Edinburgh Gogarbank was gusting up to a maximum of 42.6mph from the SSW as at 11am BST (10:00 UTC) this morning and with today being the last day of the month, that is already enough for today to go down as our windiest day of this month in the overall final statistics regardless of what happens during the rest of today, and that wind still appears to be getting even stronger at times as I write so the final figure for that highest gust might yet end up being even higher in those final statistics than what I have reported here.
Last night started off on a chilly note but once again, it clouded over with the wind starting to pick up before we even had a chance to get even close to getting a ground frost.
Last night's overnight minimum temperature was 8.3°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank and 9.3°C at the botanic gardens in Edinburgh with those temperatures being recorded quite early in yesterday evening before the temperature then started to go back up again as it clouded over with the wind picking up.
Meanwhile, the temperature at 11am BST (10:00 UTC) was around 12°C here in Edinburgh.
