THE ONLY ONLINE WEATHER SERVICE WHERE THE OBSERVER LIVES & RECORDS IN PITLOCHRY
Note that the maximum temperature for the last 24hours occurred at observation time this morning. This would be highly unusual in most months of the year, but less so in winter. This is because the time of maximum temperature on a winter's day is as much related to the air mass that is affecting the area as it is by the height of the sun in the sky. So it is not unusual for the highest temperature in a 24 hour period in winter to occur during the night.
Some spots on the Moray Firth coast could top 15 degrees today (helped by the warming of air from the S to SW descending from the Cairngorms)
