If you're planning anything outdoors in Aberdeen, the city's northeast Scottish position makes its weather almost unique in the UK — most of the rain here comes from the east off the North Sea rather than the southwest off the Atlantic, which is the opposite of almost every other major British city. Summers are short and cool, haar fog rolls in off the sea from April to September, and Cairngorms shelter to the west keeps westerly rainfall lower than Glasgow. Daylight is genuinely long in summer — close to 18 hours at midsummer.
