A WARM WELCOME TO PITLOCHRY WEATHER!
THE ONLY ONLINE WEATHER SERVICE WHERE THE OBSERVER LIVES & RECORDS IN PITLOCHRY.

While most of us were tucked up in bed last night, a short-lived interval of sub-tropical air passed through Pitlochry, sending the thermometer up to 11.8 degrees ( beating anything since October). But, temperatures soon began to plunge again & it was snowing by 9am. In the winter, when the sun has little power & the nature of air masses is all important, it is not unusual to find a day's maximum temperature occurring during the night.
