TODAY'S FORECAST FOR PITLOCHRY

A new month & unfortunately, new weather ahead (not for the better ! ) . But having said that, Sunday is likely to be mainly dry through daylight hours & still feeling rather warm with light winds .However skies are expected to be more cloudy, with sunshine becoming more limited with time. The odd spit of rain is possible, especially later in the day, though never amounting to much. East is best today, with more emphasis on cloud & rain as you travel W of Pitlochry. Gardeners & growers locally,who will likely be anxious for rain after a very dry May 
should see more significant amounts later tonight & into Monday.
