Anticipating driving up to Oban in the morning I would appreciate some real time weather reports.

Anybody around that area north or west of Glasgow who can tell me what its doing now and up t o8.15 in the morning?

Thanks,
Steve

thats gourock, but they also anticipated 18mm of rain since 1pm today, not a drop so far!

Fantastic day in Glasgow today, but BBC weather is predicting rain later tonight and throughout tomorrow. :-( Hope they're wrong!!

Currently overcast but dry at the moment in Glasgow. Could go either (stay dry or some showers). Very humid.

Link below is a good weather site. Refers to mountains but is a good guide to the weather in that area. Select Get Forecasts then click on area.

Below takes you direct to the forecast and outlook over next two days.

I use this site to check for rain so I can time using the bike. Obviously being radar its not wrong and very good to see whats coming. You can zoom in and move around with the mouse.
