Max of 10.7°C, brightness then grey, then rain and this evening that line of torrential downpours didn't disappoint.
Couple of minutes after taking the shot, I was distracted by an animal moving in front of the trees. Black, size of a doberman, moving fast and reminiscent of a cat.... Ran until out of sight down the valley in the rapidly failing light. Nobody else about - all very spooky. Am going to report the sighting on the big cat site....

Is it just me or did the TV forecasts for today turn out to be hopelessly wrong? I was expecting a wee bit of dampness and a passing lightish shower having seen a couple of yesterday's forecasts in between the US election news. And it's pished it down for hours....

Don't worry @Puffy MacCloudthat drizzle will soon turn into torrential rain. I'm planning on walking the dog around 2.45pm - so around then would be about right.

Media reporting that we have the equivalent of ten times the size of Germany currently unfrozen compared to the mid 1980s. That quote brings it home for me.

What is the plan over there @CatchMyDrift?
Couple of shots summing up this afternoon's weather. Up to 9.3°C.

October summed up by New Model Army's 'Autumn'
(Sullivan / Nelson / Dean / White / Gill) 2009
Across the land the air is still
The leaves are falling golden one by one
Like the paper money falls
Or the soldiers stealing homeward
There is only beginning
And there is beginning of the end
All the peoples are moving
Like the waters of a great flood
And everything is beautiful
Because everything is dying
So we went down to the beach
And built a fire to remember
We took the last bottle of wine
And drank a toast to mortality
And we scrawled across the cold wet sand
With our bare feet ‘We Told You So'
And watched the waves steal it away
I caught you smile and I heard you say
Everything is beautiful
Because everything is dying
So who wants to live forever
When these moments will only come the once?
Staring into the embers of the fire...
And everything is beautiful
Only because everything is dying

@shuggee are those magic shrooms??
Not this time! Think the frost might have seen off the fly agaric? Too high for the other type. (Altitude, I meant altitude).

It might be just me, but the autumn colours this year are stunning. Deep oranges and browns everywhere just now driving around Tweeddale.

Fourth air frost at -1.7C.
At 9am GFS 00z said 6C, the garden said -0.6C. Wish I had seen this coming so I could've covered some of the plants I am wanting to over-winter.....

Rain and associated low cloud and grey skies cleared around 8.45am - with a defined edge to blue sky and sunshine. Now a mixed bag of cloud/sun. The transition is heading north and east - so there's hope yet! Low of 6.4C last night.

Got down to 4.0C last night, and has been hovering around 6C all day until the last hour or so - now at 9.2C. Windy out there, dark, rain, wind, did I mention the rain? Guinea fowl huddled around the chimney.
In coming shower....
