I can confirm it was -9C locally east of Aboyne on Wednesday night
and -5 on Thursday morning. The temp rose to plus 8 by the time I had
driven the 30mls west to Braemar on the same morning.
Very localised cold and warm spots all over the place.

ie 0C on the top of the Cairn O Mount (1800ft) at 7pm on Wednesday
night and dropping to -9C in the glen floor along the River Feugh on
the north side of the Mounth and rising again to -4C on top of
Corsedardar before falling again to -9C in Glen Cat.

I noticed in the Daily Mail this morning that (according to them) the
highest/lowest UK temps yesterday we Altnaharra, Highland +11C and
Aberdeen -7C.

If Altnaharra (which often figures as the coldest UK location) was
that warm, (foehn effect?) wouldn't Aberdeen also have been similarly
affected - possibly more so, being more in the lea of the Highlands?

Or has the paper got its locations muddled up? I'd expected
somewhere in the Western Isles to be the warmest in the UK yesterday

Alford was -9C at the same time Aboyne rose to +2C (slight westerly breeze
there helped bring warm air from above inversion down to surface
locally/for a time. Meanwhile Kinloss was +5C.
