Another grey cold and damp day here but joy of joys I saw a few patches of blue sky this afternoon. However overall here the cold and grey easterly garbage continues unabated.

Another fine settled day again.  Beast from the east was still cool. 

Yes, very similar in Crail, cold with haar all day, never broke 5c. Grim.

Had the day off so was able to go up to Braemar to enjoy some lovely weather. Was like being abroad though you could also say that about what we've been subjected to here. From Faeroe Islands to Faro and back again that's what it felt like today.

7th day out of 9 with under an hours sunshine Thankfully I'm being allowed to carry my remaining holidays over to next financial year as this month is turning out to be a complete disaster. Worse than the vast majority of winter

Where is IMBY though?

No Spring warmth here. Wind chill 0.9c.   Glad to get in after half an hours walk..

4c stratus with drizzle that appears almost to contain ice...a cold NE wind too.  One of the coldest days of this late winter thus far.

This could have been as you would say 'Snizzle' or ice pellets etc!? Gosh imagine this set up early January or Feb??? We could be seeing some ice days with freezing fog!?? What do you think?

Tomorrow we are expecting a max of 7c in the SW. If this pattern had occurred a couple months back it would be 0 or +1C with a raw easterly wind-chill of -3 or -4c !!

Utterly repellent grey **** for the 3rd Saturday in a row Just when is this crap going to end? Three months ago December set a new record low, in my 9 years of records, of just 0.8 hours sun across the four Saturdays and this horrific month is on course to break that

Some really vile charts have been showing up for Easter Weekend that would cement this month's position amongst the very worst, should they come off. Of course it wouldn't become unsettled because it has never been anything but. Even with pressure over 1030mb for a week it has been drizzling/raining nearly every single day 

Endless featureless stratus garbage day in day out with only 2 days since the 8th managing >1hr sun, no frost and maxes between 4 and 8C for what seems like an eternity. An utterly wretched, depressing and extremely boring good-for-nothing period of hell. The return of the westerlies just can't come soon enough to end this horror show.

Its the Spring Equinox today - 12 hours of night and day across the world.

The first day of spring.

Beautiful blue skies here in Edinburgh Richard for the 2nd day running. What a cracking March weekend!

Unfortunately it didn't. Yet again stuck under a uniform sheet of disgusting grey cloud and have been for the past 2 hours. Horrible weekend

Thermometer says 10C but it feels more like 6C with a cold NW wind and complete lack of insolation. It is not pleasant at all outside.

How much more of this do we have to put up with? It's awful. Just an early start to recent summer hell patterns whereby instead of normal westerlies it alternates between endless cloud of the North Sea and endless cloud spilling down from the North Atlantic. This time of year NW'lys should be giving sun and showers not this grey rubbish 

Cloud broke up and saw the sun for a little while.. Not Bad for the Spring day.
