YESTERDAY IN PITLOCHRYThursday was cloudy throughout, with spells of light rain & just a few drier intervals. It was also very cool, thought not a record breaker
OUTLOOK LOCALLY for PERIOD MAY 19th to MAY 22nd
Conditions should start improving from Saturday, which should be dry, though rather cloudy. High pressure will start to build from the north, giving winds from the E force 2 or 3. bringing broken cloud & some sunny intervals. It will become a little warmer by day, though perhaps the odd ground frost overnight at the start of the period.
