12.6C overcast

---

As John mentioned, another cold start to the night. Frosty and -1 C when I went to bed but the milder cloudy weather has spread north and it's now +5 C

---

For the second night in a row, an official air frost has been recorded at Edinburgh Gogarbank and Edinburgh Airport with the temperature dropping to -1°C at Edinburgh Airport but last night wasn't quite as cold as the preceding night as it then clouded over in the early part of this morning with the temperature then jumping up.

As I write, there is still the odd bit of sunshine at times but it is now mostly cloudy.

Currently around 6°C here in Edinburgh.

---

Overcast 12.4c with a very slight breeze.

---

Misty and murky - with just a light breeze from the SE. The change in airmass is making itself felt, with the dewpoint close behind the air temperature as it rises.
13.5, dew 13.0, with an overnight low of 11.7.

---

Starting to brighten up here at Folkestone making the current 16 C & mid 90% H feel balmy-like in light winds.

Feels like there is no need to have the heating on. 

---

A few glimpses of the sun for 15 mins but otherwise cloudy after a very foggy start to the day.

15.9c was the max, 14.1c currently

---

Temp. here still climbing.
Temp.17C. Dew. 15C.

---

Very mild throughout the night with temps not falling below 14.7c. Humidity through the roof as well. 

---

It's balmy out there for sure - not to your levels, mind you, but still more typical of early July rather than mid-October. There's a bit of mistiness as well, and it's calm.

13.5, dew 12.9, the overnight so far low being 13.3. Yesterday's high was 16.8, and I'm expecting the low 20s today - the MetO raw has 21, for example. While not terribly unusual to get 20 this late in the season, it'll make a marked difference to the feel of things compared to the weekend!

15.1C cloudy.
Feels incredibly mild (I've just put the rubbish out) - continuing this year's feature of high average temps being founded on mild/warm cloudy nights.

---

16C. Moist and cloudy after overnight rain with a light SSE wind off the Channel.

---

Overcast  and gloomy 14.1c 96% RH and a slight breeze

---

Mild and humid. Just been trimming back the olive trees, warm work.
Temp. 17C. Dew 16C.

---

It's reached 20 - onwards and upwards!
Partly cloudy, but with a good deal of sun, breezy from the south, 20.2, dew 17.8(!) - feels like early July, minus the searing sun.

---

Overcast 
Breezy 
20C

Overcast and wet at 12.5°C currently. 11.7 mm of rain so far today with more on the way.

---

Rain setting in again here and so gloomy, 15 C though so could be our warmest October day so far 🤔

---

Nudging 22c in a couple of places in the SE and EA. Not far off the date record.  Probably  the warmest day until late March/April.

---

20.5C
Dew point 17C
Felt very humid stepping out of an air conditioned shop. 
Still overcast 

Reminds me a bit of 2017, which was the date record! I recorded 23.4 that day, and the official record of 23.5 was set at Manston, not a million miles from here.

Today's reached 22.3, and I suspect if the sun had been out more then the record would have been at threat. It's presently mostly cloudy, 21.6, dew 18.0.

It's going to be a warm night, I think...

---

22.3C official site at St James Park at 1400

---

Peaked at 23.0 exactly here - a warm, summer-like afternoon. (FWIW, I have a Davis VP2 with fan, and it's been breezy, I'm confident it's not over-read either).

The chap over the road also has a weather station, a cheaper Youshiko, and that recorded a max of 22.9.

Currently 21.7, dew 18.1, a lovely day.

A fine end to the day where it is stiil feeling balmy at 20.0 C on the nose under setting sun in clear skies despite a freshening southerly breeze. It has been cloudy off and on during the day so it was nice to experience this Summer's final fling.

As I write, we're just over two weeks away from Hallowe'en and tonight's weather is quite appropriate for that as dense fog has closed in here in Edinburgh, and it's raining as well with all of that giving everything a very eery and spooky look.

In spite of that though and despite all of the cloud cover, today's maximum temperature at Edinburgh Gogarbank still reached a rather warm (for this time of year) 15.6°C.

Despite what Jerry said above, that wasn't enough to make today our warmest day of the year so far (for that, we have to go back to 5 October 2024 when the temperature reached 16.2°C at that same station) but today was our second day of this month so far.

Furthermore, the temperatures are now generally refusing to drop and remain stuck at around 13°C, so it looks as though we will be having to endure yet more double figures overnight minimums for the second night in a row.🤢
