BBC Weather's Nick Miller has produced a special report for the baton relay over the next few days.
Today's baton bearers in Argyll and Bute should have mainly dry weather with cloud clearing later.
Apologies if you're frustrated with the large gaps in the video feed this morning.
The baton relay live streaming system compresses the video signal then uses the equivalent of eight smartphones to spread this data, sending it out over as many mobile phone networks as it can find.
This gives the best possible chance of the data making it back to the BBC but at times there just aren't enough mobile connections on enough networks to let us reconstruct the video to stream to the web.
We'll keep you updated using the text commentary, and post pictures of the action as we can as soon as we get them.

"A lone piper in a poncho greets the baton as it arrives in #Appin #BatonRelay," they tweeted, external.

Jane Murray has emailed regarding today's start in Appin. She says:
"I am delighted that today's leg of the relay is starting in the village I come from, at my old primary school.
"Although I now live in Dundee I will be watching this morning's live feed to see friends and family taking part in this morning's festivities.
"My mum is part of the band providing the music for the pre-start ceilidh taking place in the primary school. I just hope everyone has remembered to set their alarms, and that the midges stay away!
