Evening,
A beautiful day today with pleasant sunshine and light winds. Just a few light showers. But, the cloud has moved in and this hearalds the nosedive that is about to take place in our weather. Everything is in the forecast for us over the next three days...thunder, lightning, severe gales, heavy rain, much colder temperatures and even the prospect of the autumns first snow for the highest mountain summits. Yellow MO rain and gale warnings are in force for us now and much of Calmac's west coast operation has been scaled back already. Expect the obligatory A87 Skye Bridge warning to take effect later tonight.
A very interesting spell of weather to come.
