A dry, bright morning, with well-broken cloud. It is yet again nippy, following an overnight minimum of -2.0. The garden is still very hard following another sharp frost on the ground.
PITLOCHRY TODAY
No rain from the cold front that passed recently, so it should be a dry day, with variable amounts of cloud & a little sunshine. Temperatures will still be on the cold side, only reaching 2 or 3 degrees.
THIS EVENING & TONIGHT
Dry throughout, with variable amounts of cloud & a few clear spells. A widespread slight frost, with minimum temperatures in the range -2 to -4.
OUTLOOK
Sunday probably the last dry, settled day for the time being. Next week, we will be more under the influence of low pressure, with stronger winds, mostly from W or SW & bands of rain alternating with drier brighter spells with a few showers. Temperatures should be higher than of late.
