  1. Even snow on the Alps could be possible below 1000m near the Swiss/Austrian border over the weekend. But across northern italy, night time temperatures should dip well into single figures under clear skies.

  2. Very hazy for most of the day in Edinburgh with plenty of high cloud partially weakening the sun. Skies cleared up around 4. Quite chilly in the wind. Tomorrow probably a bit sunnier and warmer? We’re now on “high” UV levels according to the metoffice.

  3. Tomorrow looks quite cloudy with some hazy sunshine at times. Saturday and Sunday bright, but looking very wet next week and beyond into mid-May even... Models are all over the place, so whilst the transition to wetter conditions seems certain, it isn't clear how long it will last. GFS has been hinting that high pressure could return reasonably soon

    It didn't! 

    Cracking day with hardly a cloud to be seen as I spent most of the day on the garden. The cool breeze meant it wasn't quite t-shirt weather though. 

    I thought February was quite exciting during the gale force winds as blizzards rolled in from the west. Definitely had quite a few days with snow falling at some point here in Edinburgh. Even thundersnow in parts of Scotland. And it's not often that you get heavy snow showers moving in across the whole country on a western wind... 

    Coming back to today, more glorious sunny weather in Edinburgh. Unusually clear for an eastern wind.

  5. Horrible day in Edinburgh, just 9C, overcast and cold easterly winds. The low clouds just keep rolling in. GFS cloud cover forecast got it wrong this time, today was supposed to be a bit brighter than yesterday, but it isn't.

    More of the same tomorrow. Maybe Sunday will be a bit brighter?

  6. Started off like yesterday, not a cloud in the sky. Low cloud has rolled in from the west since. Looking at the satellite images, seems very foggy/low clouds over the Atlantic.

    No significant spells of rain anytime soon. Finally the ground can dry up after the washout winter

    Absolutely beautiful morning. Hit -1c briefly overnight and was 0c about 5am but up to 5c already!

    Yep, great morning. I see high cloud moving in from the Forth now, although hazy sunshine should hold on for most of the day.

    Tomorrow looks somewhat sunnier and warmer as well. I’m finding the GFS cloud cover forecast to be quite accurate.

    Happy Easter to all! It is a warm Easter in Italy, meteorologically, especially in the north. Perhaps only on Easter 2007 did we have similar values. From tomorrow, however, temperatures will drop temporarily.

    Happy Easter! Still a serious lack of rainfall in what is one of the wettest months for parts of northern italy...

  9. Turning out to be a lovely afternoon in Edinburgh, unexpectedly so. Hazy sunshine, light winds and feeling warm despite the 12C temperature. If GFS proves to be right, we could be expecting a very long period of dry, often sunny weather over the coming days and weeks. There is a risk that low pressure does manage to push further east bringing an end to the nice weather by next weekend, but only time will tell.

  10. Temperatures struggling to get to 10C with overcast skies. The high resolution gfs was right when predicting the temperatures today. I have the heating on. 

    Next week could also be very cold. GFS showing temperatures as low as 4 degrees around Edinburgh for midday Tuesday

  11. Glorious morning and afternoon in Edinburgh, 17.5C at the moment. Here is a pic from my daily exercise today. Bright blue skies. The best April day we’ve had so far, at least in terms of sunshine. Last sunday was warmer, but the sun was often hazy with lots of high cloud around...

  12. I can't see high pressure properly establishing itself over the UK anytime soon. Those low pressures always pushing from the west on the models... however the outlook seems rather changeable with some sunny spells and mild temperatures in between the longer wet and windy periods. 

    Sunday could be the warmest day of the year so far. 16C predicted for Edinburgh.

    Horrible weather the last few days. Drizzly, misty pish! I hate a slack easterly at this time of year. Days on end of depressing muck!

    Hope you are all doing OK! I must admit I'm struggling with trying to do a full days work from home and also home school 3 kids. Mum is out working as her school is open for key workers kids. Can't grumble too much though as her role is essential in helping the even more essential others in the health service etc. stay working. This first week is trying to find a balance which, so far, isn't being found

    I have enjoyed my daily cycle into the Pentlands in the evenings. I'm looking forward to that more than anything at the minute as it's good for my head. It's dark and very quiet up there - with a good light on the bike it's perfect! Seen some deer and owls last few nights which is a nice bonus

    I agree, i’m sick of this miserable non-weather. Don’t look at the met office forecast, never seen so many black clouds on the forecast for days and days to come

  14. Weather has been nice the past few days. Back to windy and wet from tomorrow, although still unclear just how far SE the fronts will push. At the moment next weekend is looking very bright as the winds turn from the north, but cold. Until then, damp, miserable and windy for us all. Hopefully it will put off people from going out.

  15. Nature woke up early this year due to the exceptionally mild winter and spring, so these temperatures could still have an adverse effect. 

    Models are still very undecided on where the cold air is heading, just yesterday it was meant to halt over the balkans and sink into greece. Could even end up over the UK after warming up and crossing most of europe (GFS 12)

  16. Quite a significant cold spell looking increasingly likely, especially for the Adriatic coast and northern italy. Whilst snow along the coasts is currently looking unlikely, if confirmed light snow would be possible on low ground along the Prealps due to stau effect as the winds turn east.
