November is a dark month up here, with rapidly decreasing hours of daylight. At the moment, the sun sets at 4pm, after rising at 8.20am. We'll lose an hour and a half more in daylight before the solstice on December 21st. Today, we did not see the sun at all - it was wall-to-wall rain, but not that much wind. Better than in Aberdeenshire, which saw over 6 inches (169 mm) of rain, leading to flooding. There was also a severe gale, localised to the coastline south of Aberdeen, because of a severe barometric pressure gradient. The weather will remain very changeable, as we transition towards winter.
