THURS 22nd JAN

A WARM WELCOME TO PITLOCHRY WEATHER!

THE ONLY ONLINE WEATHER SERVICE WHERE THE OBSERVER LIVES & RECORDS IN PITLOCHRY

Aviemore appears to have been the coldest spot last night at -11.
One of the statistics I try to record in winter months, is the number of days with snow lying (at 0900hrs). Here at 140ms, this would apply to the last 10 days, for example. However, as soon as you join the A9 SOUTH, most of the fields are clear of snow now. Just emphasises the strong link between snowfall & altitude.
