There's been another frost overnight (Braemar was down to -5 ), so quite a chilly, cheerless start. Pitlochry has joined much of the Central Belt + East Coast with misty low cloud & it may well take some time for breaks to develop. Hopefully, things should start to brighten by afternoon & some sunny spells should then follow. For earlier sunshine & higher temperatures---go west (for most of the month, the opposite advice has applied!! ). Winds will be light from the east & maximum temperatures will reach 12 to 14 (up to 16 or 17 further west. TONIGHT will become cloudy & misty, but should be less cold.

YESTERDAY IN PITLOCHRYProlonged sunshine made the day just about as good as it gets in March. The maximum temperature, however, was far from the record-breaking category.
THE GENERAL WEATHER PATTERN AROUND THE BRITISH ISLES
High pressure still dominates, but with a drift of air from the North Sea, there are problems with misty low cloud. The dry weather is set to continue for several days yet.
TOMORROW'S FORECAST FOR PITLOCHRYAgain, the problem for the forecaster is chasing the extent & persistence of misty low cloud. Pitlochry may only see the sun later in the afternoon. Go west for sunnier, warmer weather & avoid the East Coast.
