It looks as though the promised milder weather is "on hold" for 48hrs. The cold air over Scotland, is putting up stiff resistance to an invasion of milder air from the Atlantic & although we were lucky last night to avoid a snowfall, it's still going to be cold today, with another high risk of snow tonight. Icy underfoot at present & something of a wind chill!
PILOCHRY TODAY
An early ice risk, but a dry day ahead with some sunshine. Remaining cold, with a breeze from the NW & highest temperatures around just 2 degrees.
THIS EVENING & TONIGHT
Some clear skies at first with a frost. Increasing cloud later is likely to bring a spell of snow during the middle of the night. More details this evening.
OUTLOOK
Unsettled, with rain & stronger winds, but milder, later in the week.
