Edinburgh weather: City to enjoy return of sunnier weather with temperatures reaching 12C

After a few dark and wet and days in Edinburgh, skies are set to clear up on Tuesday.

On Monday, the city was blanketed by grey clouds and rain showers, but it looks to be a mostly bright and dry one in the capital today.

According to the Met Office, it will be "cloudy this morning" but the rain will "gradually" fade throughout the mid-morning and early afternoon.

By 1pm, Edinburgh locals can expect to finally see some sunshine poking through the clouds.

Around this time, the chance of rainfall will fall to below 5%, where it will remain for the rest of the day and evening.

At about 3pm, clouds will mostly have subsided, and the city will enjoy two hours of blue skies before the sun sets.

The sun will bring with it a bit of warmth, with temperatures set to remain above 10 degrees Celsius for the entire day - reaching a peak of 12C around 2pm.

Tonight will be "mostly cloudy" with "clear periods and just a few light showers", although temperatures are set to dip below 10C.

Tomorrow looks set to be a similar story, with intervals of sunshine poking through grey skies, with the potential for brief showers.
