Dramatic Weather Shift Ahead

Scotland’s short heatwave, which saw temperatures reach 29 °C in Drumnadrochit, is set to give way to a spell of Atlantic storms from around 1 July. Forecasts suggest several days of rain, gusty winds and possible thunderstorms, lasting into the first full week of the school holidays. Western and coastal areas are likely to bear the brunt, with travel conditions expected to worsen. After days of sunshine, it’s a reminder of how quickly a Scottish summer can turn.
