SUNDAY 14th AUGUST

HEADLINES @ 0845Hrs
A pleasant start to the day, though there has been a heavy dew, leaving the grass very wet. A very reasonable day ahead for our many tourists, although there are already several showers around to the west of us.

PITLOCHRY TODAY
After a sunny start, cloud will develop quite readily, giving a risk of a few showers across the area. There will also be some intervals of sunshine when it will feel warm. though temperatures are only likely to reach average values for the time of year, around 18 or 19 degrees. Winds will be mainly SW light to moderate.

THIS EVENING & TONIGHT
Any showers dying out to leave some sunshine this evening & clear spells overnight. A bit cooler than of late, with lows of about 6 or 7 degrees.

OUTLOOK
MONDAY---A fair amount of dry weather around, with sunny spells, but an odd shower is possible. Temperatures rising to values similar to those over the weekend
TUESDAY---will be less settled with some rain around.
