Edinburgh weather on Wednesday: It's going to stay mild but there will be heavy rain showers

We're all likely to be waking up to the sound of rain on our window today, here in Edinburgh- and it's going to stay pretty driech on the weather-front throughout the rest of the day.

Yesterday's rain and sunshine has been replaced with just the rain showers across Edinburgh and the Lothians and, according to forecasters, the rain is going to persist from when we wake up, until around 7pm this evening.

But despite the rain the temperature is set to reach highs of 17C by around the 12pm - which is just as mild as yesterday - and there will be some light winds.

Edinburgh is getting off lightly compared other parts of the UK where weather warnings are in place as remnants of Hurricane Humberto lash the UK.

You will definitely need your raincoat today but things are starting to look up tomorrow, when there is expected to be some more sunshine on the horizon.
