Fort Augustus
Ft Augustus is a settlement in the parish of Boleskine and Abertarff, at the south-west end of Loch Ness, Scottish Highlands. The town has a population of around 646 (2001 ). Its economic climate is greatly dependent on tourist. As with a lot of the British Isles and Scotland, Ft Augustus has a nautical climate (Köppen: Cfb) with great summer seasons as well as mild winter seasons. Like a great deal of the bordering area, sunlight degrees are reduced at around 1,000 hrs per annum as well as temperatures are unforeseeable-- Fort Augustus holds the UK's joint least expensive May temperature document of -9.4 ° C (15.1 ° F). This is the current point in the added to summertime that such a reduced temperature level has actually been recorded, suggesting it can end up being a frost trap on tranquil clear nights due to its valley area. That exact same low existing topography can also generate some heats on occasion-- Fort Augustus held the UK daily heat document for 16 December for nearly 80 years.
