TODAY'S FORECAST FOR PITLOCHRY
Overnight rain soon dying out, then remaining rather cloudy for a while. During the afternoon, a clearance to blue skies & sunshine is expected, this being the line of a very troublesome front which took up residence over the Western Highlands, giving massive totals of rain over 3 days (Pitlochry merely getting a taste of the worst of things.).
After dark, it should stay fine with largely clear skies & a ground frost is very likely.
MAX TEMP 12 (to start off with) WIND WNW 3/4 OVERNIGHT MIN TEMP 1 to 3 with a ground frost.
WEDNESDAY
Dry, with broken cloud & some sunshine. Cooler than of late.
£97million for more accurate forecasts!!-----A personal opinion by an enthusiast.Will the day ever arrive when we might be told that Pitlochry can expect a severe thunderstorm between 2.52 & 3.47, giving 54mm of rain, during which time only 2mm will fall on Aberfeldy & 6mm on Dunkeld---all this information given several hours in advance & successfully communicated to the entire population of the area, together with accurate implications on which places will be flooded as a result.
Well, unless this new super computer can do most of this, why not channel the money into the NHS,which could use the money right now!!
