winter in edinburgh

[NoSync]

are you sure? my uncle told me that he remember that the temperatures there in winter arrived until at -15 -20.....

Definitely not in Edinburgh. Those are close to being the absolute lowest temperatures ever registered in the Highlands (which sport an all-time record around -25°C).

come to a point that the people died in the them house and in the cars and in the bus......but probably has been an exception......

Dying in cars and houses? Are you talking about the UK or Verhojansk?

however i live 650 metres above sea level and temperates are about the same then pianura padana...

Not in winter, most likely.

Absolutely not, those temperature are too low for Edinburgh, in winter the Atlantic ocean effects don't make it possible to reach -20°C in the city. It is said also in the link you have posted :"Gli inverni sono lunghi ma non sono freddissimi considerando che le temperature scendono di rado sotto i 0 °C"






Of Course, it is colder if we condider annual average temperatures, but we are talking about winter in this thread!
But in winter Milano for example is colder than Edinburgh, look at this data set:
Milano Linate
Edinburgh Royal Obs.

Milano avarage temperatures in December, January, February are lower than temperatures in the same months in Edinburgh. Milano is 1.8°C colder than Edinburgh in the coldest month of winter (january), it is much

yes but i think that is possible who has been there a cold snap for a time....

Yep, sounds like a pretty good explanation!

All over the UK the winter is pretty similar. Definitely from north to south temperature increases, and that affects the nature of the fall... However, although in Scotland snow is not too common in Edinbra. When it does, it is likely to be snow showers, but that doesn't help the snow to settle down. Temperature someone wrote in the post are far too low, also because the weather changes rapidly (and this is probably the most interesting thing), and without clear sky the temperature does not drop too much.
