A brilliant morning, though nippy(the ground minimum was down to -8.1). The Ben Vrackie area is sparkling white, though there is some valley mist lifting to low cloud. Should be a great day for a walk! (Anyone in Lee-on-the- Solent yesterday?--18 degrees!!)
PITLOCHRY TODAY
A dry & mostly sunny day is expected, though it will be more cloudy towards the coast & this cloud may advance inland later in the day.There will also be a few mist patches around at first. Temperatures should reach 4 or 5 degrees.
THIS EVENING & TONIGHT
Rather more cloudy, though staying dry. Perhaps cloud breaks later in the night, allowing a slight frost, minimum 0 to -1.
OUTLOOK
Apart from a brief spell of rain on THURSDAY, there should be a good deal of dry weather during the coming few days,with sunny spells. Temperatures will be a little below normal by day with most nights prone to a frost.
