Yesterday, Kinlochewe topped 19.3 degrees & today the warmest spots in NW Scotland are expected to reach close on 21 (70 in old currency).  This pattern of temperature contrasts between W & E of Scotland has been a feature of this April, very much reflecting the result of chilly E or SE winds off a cold North Sea & the warming up of places well-sheltered by the Grampians & NW Highlands.

TODAY'S FORECAST FOR PITLOCHRY

A mainly dry day (just a chance of an isolated shower). The best of the sunshine this morning, with the likelihood of more cloud spreading from the east later.
Max.temp.16, Wind SE1or2, Min temp overnight 8

TODAY'S FORECAST FOR PITLOCHRY

One of April's cooler days yesterday was followed by the wettest night so far this month.  Nothing too brilliant to forecast for today, though for an hour or two around lunchtime & into the afternoon, there could well be brighter skies, some sunny intervals & temperatures up to 13.  That apart, the rest of the day holds out little better than misty low cloud, a chilly E wind & occasional rain,some of this associated with a front moving NE-wards. at least the night ahead promises to be well above frost levels.
OUTLOOK--continuing unsettled, becoming colder with a risk of some frost (gardeners & growers stay tuned for detail! )

Earlier brightness has gone, as upper cloud increases,though the associated rain is still further south in Scotland. Probably this will start to affect us around lunchtime, though latest indications point to the rain being rather more showery in nature & hopefully allowing some sunshine later in the afternoon. An odd shower may still occur during the evening, though we may be lucky & not be affected.
Temperatures lower than yesterday, failing to reach double figures, though winds will be light. Most places will avoid frost tonight, though a few vulnerable spots may just have a ground frost.
