Sgurr Fiona (Highland) weather

Headline:

Thundery downpours tonight, and again Friday afternoon.

This Evening and Tonight:

Cloudy with occasionally heavy and thundery rain, risk of hail and torrential downpours in south, this evening. The rain clears southeast overnight with some clear spells developing. Minimum temperature 10 °C.

Friday:

A largely dry and bright morning with some sunny spells but cloud increases from the south towards midday. Outbreaks of occasionally heavy rain spreads erratically north through the afternoon. Maximum temperature 20 °C.

Outlook for Saturday to Monday:

Bright start Saturday with some sunny spells but occasionally heavy rain spreads east in afternoon. Sunday and Monday see sunny spells and showers with fresh southwesterly winds.

Fairly changeable conditions at first with periods of rain and showers, and there could be some thundery outbreaks at times. The best of the drier and brighter weather initially will be across the southeast. Then perhaps a drier start to July for many, although the northwest may still see some rain at times, and perhaps accompanied by some strong winds. Temperatures are likely to be near average in the north and slightly warmer than average in the south, but with winds generally from the west temperatures aren't expected to be as hot as seen recently.

High pressure patterns are looking slightly more likely than low pressure patterns during the early part of this period, meaning a greater chance of settled and drier than average conditions. Although with outbreaks of rain and stronger winds at times, more especially across the north. There is still a chance of some changeable or more unsettled conditions developing later in the period, with a risk of some heavy and thundery showers. Temperatures are likely to be above normal on the whole, with a greater than normal chance of hot conditions developing at times.
