SATURDAY 23rd APRIL

HEADLINES @ 0830Hrs
Overcast, with a little rain earlier.Temperature at 0830 was 9.3

PITLOCHRY TODAY
More cloud, less sunshine, more chance of rain & not as warm--sorry!!   The rain this morning looks rather patchy in nature, but more significant rain seems lkely this afternoon. Though about 5 degrees cooler than yesterday, it should still reach above normal April values.

THIS EVENING & TONIGHT
Perhaps the odd quite heavy shower around during the evening, but dry overnight & cooler than of late, with many spots getting a ground frost.

OUTLOOK
Being as positive as possible after today's forecast, the next few days will see a good deal of dry weather with some sunshine & though there will be some chilly nights, daytimes should still be a touch above normal April values at 13 or 14 degrees.
