 Most of the "action" appeared to be further south yesterday.  There were some very heavy rainfall totals further west eg Tyndrum had 117.6mms in the past 48hrs up till 2100Hrs last night (more than twice as much as Pitlochry's had so far this month ).

 Becoming dry with some clear spells developing. Lowest temperature around 7 or 8.
