TUESDAY 18th OCTOBER----EVENING

For longer outlook periods,surface pressure charts, mountain weather & severe weather warnings, go to the Met Office's regional forecasts and click the relevant headings.

HEADLINES @ 1645Hrs
Some patches of snow have survived all day on Ben Vrackie, while rainfall radar has confirmed that much of the highest ground has continued to have snow showers.   Pitlochry had several showers in the early part of the morning, but since then, these have been much more scattered (rainfall only 1.2mms since 0900Hrs ).  It's been windy, up to about force 6, though the sunshine helped push the maximum temperature to 10.0.

THIS EVENING & TONIGHT
There will still be the odd shower around this evening, but later, skies should be much more broken, with the weather mainly dry. In valley bottom locations, sheltered from the wind, minimum temperatures may just go into negative territory. Ground frost is likely to be more widespread.

WEDNESDAY
Probably more emphasis on broken cloud & some sunshine, with fewer showers around. A little less windy & maximum temperatures close to 8 or 9 degrees.
