Meteorologist's view

Feeling cold on the tops in the easterly breeze so good warm and windproof clothing will be required, but winds slowly easing.

Generally dry and cloudy today, with just a little brightness at times and a small chance of isolated light showers. Largely dry and cloudy this evening, with any cloud breaks allowing valley fog to form, most likely in the south of the park.

70%.
