THE ONLY ONLINE WEATHER SERVICE WHERE THE OBSERVER LIVES & RECORDS IN PITLOCHRY
YESTERDAY saw more of a cloud sheet persisting & the air felt cool. Nonetheless, the day's high temp. at 12.4
is pretty close to normal for mid-April. The evening saw cloud largely breaking up & the very bright star in the western sky is VENUS. (maybe more cloud around this evening)
TODAY---A gorgeous morning, but nippy. Clear skies last night have left the lowest temperatures so far this month (-6.4 on the grass here). The lawns are dripping in dew or still frosted where the sun hasn't reached.
We may well not keep wall to wall sunshine all day, with a band of cloud out in the North Sea drifting our way.
OUTLOOK---Staying dry, not always sunny(probably Western areas rather more sunny & warmer). Pitlochry
top temperatures around 12 to 14. High pressure continues to hold sway.
