TUES 21st APRIL

A WARM WELCOME TO PITLOCHRY WEATHER!

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

YESTERDAY  Much less sunshine than of late, mostly confined to the late afternoon/
early evening. Top temperature up to 13.7. Evening clear skies saw a crescent moon
in the western sky, along with Venus, currently brightest object in the heavens.  All
set for at least a ground frost overnight.

TODAY   Frost around if you were up early, otherwise a beautiful morning if a little nippy.
Should be a straightforward sunny day, with little cloud to spoil things & the thermometer
topping 17.

OUTLOOK  Make the best of  things, as the weather will slowly go downhill, though both
Wednesday & Thursday should at least be dry, though less sunshine than today. By the weekend
there will be little sign left of the high pressure system that has given us such a pleasant April
& fronts & depressions will be taking over the controls.
