HEADLINES @ 0900Hrs
Still just a touch of snow on Ben Vrackie.  There were further snow showers over the Grampians overnight. Tonight is likely to see the lowest temperature of the present cold snap.

PITLOCHRY TODAY
Much less in the way of cloudy, showery activity today & much more in the way of dry weather, broken cloud & some sunshine. So only a small chance of a shower. Not quite as windy as yesterday, but probably a degree or so colder with 8 as a maximum.

THIS EVENING & TONIGHT
Some sunshine at first this evening, followed by a night with some clear spells. A few prone spots may get down to a negative air temperature, with most places having a ground frost

THURSDAY
A cold, bright start, but it is expected to cloud over later in the day to bring some rain overnight. Temperatures during the day will only rise slowly to about 8, though the night will be less cold than recent ones.
