The Gleneagles Hotel (Perth and Kinross) weather

Headline:

Mostly dry, bright Wednesday. Cloud and rain in evening.

This Evening and Tonight:

A dry night for most with some lengthy clear periods developing. Quickly turning cold with a widespread frost and risk of ice on untreated surfaces. The odd showers in western areas, wintry over the hills. Minimum temperature -2 °C.

Wednesday:

Dry with bright or sunny spells in the morning. Turning gradually cloudier and breezier through the afternoon with occasional rain in the evening, snow on hills. Maximum temperature 6 °C.

Outlook for Thursday to Saturday:

Changeable through the period with showers or perhaps some longer spells of rain on Thursday and Friday, snow on hills. Bright spells and a few showers on Saturday.

Slow evolving weather patterns in the vicinity of the UK are most favoured through this period, with low pressure often to the west or southwest and high pressure near or over Scandinavia. Areas of rain or showers will attempt to push into some western and southwestern parts of the UK in particular, but possibly making limited eastwards progress. Longer, drier interludes are most likely in the east and northeast, though potentially rather cloudy at times. A gradual trend towards colder conditions is most likely through this period, especially in the south and east. As such, whilst wintry precipitation will be more reserved for hills initially, this may become more likely to lower levels later in the period.

Initially, slowly evolving weather patterns are most likely in the vicinity of the UK, with low pressure typically to the west or southwest and high pressure to the northeast. This configuration brings an increased chance of cold conditions affecting parts of the UK, and the associated risk of wintry hazards at times. Deeper into February, and whilst confidence is naturally rather low, there may be a transition to more widely unsettled conditions and perhaps a corresponding recovery in temperature back closer to average.
