FRIDAY 12th AUGUST

HEADLINES @ 0900Hrs
More fronts to come across today, so more rain later.  I notice that Leuchars has already had about 300% of normal August rain, so there are wetter places than Pitlochry!!

PITLOCHRY TODAY
Cloudy throughout. Dry at first, some rain by lunchtime, some of it fairly light, but perhaps some heavier outbreaks on occasions. Perhaps a touch less cold than the past 2 days, with maximum reaching 15 degrees.

THIS EVENING & TONIGHT
Remaining cloudy with some further rain, especially during the evening & early in the night. Some dry spells likely later. Minimum temperature in double figures.

OUTLOOK
SATURDAY---Partly cloudy, dry for much of the time, but the odd shower is possible. It should be a touch warmer

SUNDAY---Probably the better day of the weekend, with rather more sunshine & mainly dry..
