Winter struck home with a vengeance this morning on Annandale Street.
A routine parking manoeuvre proved more straightforward than usual due to slippery conditions on a sloping run-in.
The vehicle was pulled free and taken away shortly before noon.
Meanwhile, on Calton Hill, yesterday’s stormy blast was briefly replaced by blue sky and crystal-clear light.

The views were astonishing, but beware: the north side on the path down to Blenheim Place is particularly treacherous underfoot.
