Regardless of what happens between now and tomorrow morning at 9am GMT (09:00 UTC), tonight will go down as our coldest night of the overall autumn/winter season so far as the temperature at Edinburgh Gogarbank was already down to -6.1°C as at 11pm GMT (23:00 UTC tonight).
Today's frost never completely melted all day and of course, more frost has been forming on top of that as tonight has worn on.
Meanwhile, Edinburgh Airport is even colder than that at around -7°C.
However, the temperature at Swanston in the south of Edinburgh has now gone UP over the last few hours to around -3°C which is actually slightly higher than it was at 6pm this evening.
I can only assume that this is probably due to some cloud cover that has moved into the south of Edinburgh, but which is still to reach us here in NW Edinburgh.
There is an area of snow to our SW which is showing up on the latest radar maps, and any cloud cover over the south of Edinburgh is probably from the tail end of that.
