THURS 23rd APRIL

A WARM WELCOME TO PITLOCHRY WEATHER!

THE ONLY ONLINE WEATHER SERVICE WHERE THE OBSERVER LIVES & RECORDS IN PITLOCHRY 

YESTERDAY.  It was the warmest day of April so far at 21.1  (warmer than Easter Day by 1.2 degrees).
What IS surprising is that we have managed to avoid any North Sea low cloud during this long fine spell.

In all probability, Pitlochry was as warm as anywhere in the U.K. yesterday.

TODAY  Just one more good day before things start to slide, though I would suspect a little more cloud around. The maximum temperature should still make at least 18.   

OUTLOOK  Downhill & we may not reach double figures again in April from Saturday onwards.  Some welcome showery rain for the gardens expected.   Ah well!---it was lovely while it lasted!
