YESTERDAY IN PITLOCHRYThere was a generous share of the sunshine around & we were, for all intents & purposes, spared the worst of the showers. ( There were some heavy ones not too far away---but this is the nature of showers! )
THE GENERAL WEATHER PATTERN AROUND THE BRITISH ISLES
Pressure is low to the NE of Scotland & this is producing a cool N air stream which is likely to produce cool conditions for several days.There are also weak fronts in the airflow, so still some showers around.
TOMORROW'S FORECAST FOR PITLOCHRYA chilly start, leading to a day with cool N winds around force 3 to 4. Some dry spells with some sunshine, but always a chance of a p.m. shower. Frost risk overnight
