Additional weather information
Meteorologist's view
A fine day for hill walking with plenty of dry and bright weather as well as light to moderate winds. Despite it not feeling especially hot, remember to protect your skin from the strong sunshine as UV levels will be high.
Weather
A chilly start with any valley mist rapidly clearing to leave a dry morning with sunny periods, though the sunshine will become hazy as high cloud spreads in. Later the cloud may thicken, with a low risk of the odd spot of rain. Feeling very warm.
Chance of cloud-free hill tops
>95%
Low cloud and visibility
All cloud is expected to be above the summits. Very good visibility with views of distant peaks possible.
