Low level mist and fog clearing slowly through the morning, but generally a fine day on the hills with some long sunny spells. Dry with long clear spells in the evening, risk of low level mist and fog patches reforming.

Risk of some thin cloud over foothills as low level mist and fog lifts, otherwise little or no cloud below the summits. Away from cloud, visibility very good, but a kilometre or less in any low level mist and fog patches.
