Local 'weather messiah' Windy Wilson visited his local Arnold Clark Nissan branch this week to collect his brand new Nissan Juke.

Nissan Perth General Manager, David Stewart, knows how much Windy Wilson’s advice helps the local community and surrounding areas, commenting: “Windy is an absolute asset to Perthshire and its drivers. Arnold Clark is always trying to increase the safety of drivers on the road, so to have Windy helping keep our drivers up-to-date on all weather conditions is fantastic. It’s a pleasure to have him at the branch and hopefully he can forecast some brighter weather for the Arnold Clark customers whilst he is here!”

Windy, who keeps his true name under wraps, has become a cult figure in his local area, supplying weather forecasts for Perthshire and the rest of the UK.

Fans of the weatherman can visit Windy’s Facebook page and request individual weather reports for a variety of areas, such as Auchterarder, Crieff and Blackford. Windy keeps his audience regularly informed on weather conditions – especially during the colder months, when drivers can face treacherous conditions. Arnold Clark recently created a ‘Winter Driving Guide’ to advise customers on the best ways to tackle dangerous conditions on the roads.
