1630 UPDATE===THUNDER HEARD. The centre of a very heavy shower is passing to the east of PITLOCHRY & we may stay on its western fringe
YESTERDAY
While the vast majority of people enjoyed hot & sunny weather (many places attaining the highest temperature of the year), a few unlucky guys, including a relative of mine, spent the day stranded on oil rigs, as helicopters, due to take them back to the mainland, were grounded by shallow but dense sea fog. East Coast resorts, in some cases, were little warmer than Cairngorm Summit ( just over 4000ft above sea level!! )
TODAY'S FORECAST FOR PITLOCHRY
Most of the day should remain dry, though with more cloud in general & only sunny intervals. It will still feel warm, though temperatures are expected to be 2 degrees down on yesterday's.
OUTLOOK----Mainly dry & partly cloudy, though some sunshine likely at times on most days. A few showers may affect us, but with little certainty of much if any rain. Temperatures will become much nearer to normal ( 18 to 20 maximum ), though nights may remain on the mild side. Winds will become more westerly, up to force 4 at times.

The evening promises some much needed rain, with Atlantic fronts responsible, but while significant amounts MAY occur (should we catch a thundery downpour), there is no guarantee & gardeners could be disappointed with overall totals.
