There were a number of people, besides myself, who weren't best pleased with the BBC on-line forecast for Mallaig yesterday!! The forecast of a dry day, with broken cloud & sunny spells, was totally wrong, with misty low cloud & light rain instead. Muck, Eigg & Rhum were conspicuous by their absence in the mist! At least I left a fairly accurate forecast for Pitlochry.
