Just hit 20c, our first of the year, finally. Nice having the door open in the west facing study.

After a long wait this year, the thermometer outside the office shows 22.4C. Love it.
Edit. I doesn't want to stop, it's now 22.9C.

13.6C here but mainly clear after heavy sea fog burnt away.
Feels much warmer than that with little wind.

Much better today but still a shame that the lovely blue sky of this morning had been replaced by more or less full cloud cover by early afternoon. Pleasantly warm though so nice to leave the back door open for the dog to come and go to the garden as she pleases

There has been certain times during this afternoon when it has looked as though we might at least see a few hints of brightness, but our late spring permacast hell goes on here in Edinburgh.

The temperature did briefly climb to around 15°C in this part of the world at around lunchtime, but has now dropped back to just 12°C.

And the afternoon ended up being the much better half of the day with unbroken sunshine and a peak of 20.8 C at 4 pm which enabled me to have the first sunbathing session of 2024.

Calm and sunny start to the day at 11.5C. After yesterdays pleasant 22.8C, I'm hoping for a repeat, maybe a tad warmer.

EDIT - it's taken a couple of hours for the sun to break through, but now (0950) warming quickly

Another beautiful day with sunshine and blue sky. Just a light ribbon of mist over the river early morning but didn’t last long. Warming up very quickly and I’d expect low 20’s again today.

Overcast and 12 C, it was like that yesterday morning which quickly gave way to a beautiful afternoon, so hopefully it'll be a repeat performance today. 😁

Overcast but bright - as you'd expect this time of year with the sun so high in the sky!

13.7, dew 9.9, the high so far being 14.2. Last night's low was 10.6 and yesterday's high was 18.7 (around 2C above average).

Perfect weather for gardening, really!

There was a little bit of sunshine at times earlier on this morning here in Edinburgh, but still not a massive amount of that. I know from the moaning thread that Richard from Aberdeen has been in these parts today and as he has said on that other thread, it's still mostly overcast (hopefully he will take that cloud cover back home with him when he heads back up to Aberdeen, thus allowing us to finally enjoy some decent sunshine for a change.🤣🤣).

However, today is a bit warmer than of late with a temperature of around 17°C as we've now lost that wind from off the North Sea which we've been having to endure recently.

Today has just and no more, scraped our warmest day of this year so far with a temperature of 17.9°C at Edinburgh Gogarbank and the temperature still hasn't yet peaked for today.

That is despite there still being a lot of cloud around and only the odd sunny interval at times.

A much better day up here. The warmest so far this year. I've reached 19 C on my digital garden thermometers (well shaded)

Not much sun though, a lot of medium level cloud so bright rather than sunny. I really hope this warmer spell is accompanied by sunshine 😎

However, even that very weak sunshine from earlier on has disappeared now, and it's even more overcast than what it was earlier on today.

here in Fulham hazy but sunny day but still supressed temperatures for this time of the year especially in the evening. we maxed out at 18 degrees with a brisk NE wind in London.I am beginning to wonder and yes its early days  if Summer 2024 may turn out with a continuation of lower than expected temperatures  but time will tell.

A cool start to the day today, with mostly clear skies and a low of 5.9 - the heating clicked on (set to 17), but I turned it off again sharpish, for today will be a very warm day (I expect it to break 25C indoors).

Currently it's 7.8, dew 6.9, following a high of 16.2 yesterday.
