Yorkshire Dales
Confidence
High confidence for the ongoing dry and sunny weather, though this confidence does become a little lower by Saturday with the potential for increasing cloud amounts. Also high for the warm temperatures to continue until the weekend. Moderate confidence for the extent of any morning cloud and the speed that this burns away each day.

Additional weather information
Meteorologist's view
Another fine and warm day, with sunshine largely unbroken once early morning cloud clears. UV levels will be high, so appropriate sun protection and plenty of hydration will be vital for anyone heading out onto the hills.
Weather
Low cloud will thicken from the east during the early hours of Tuesday, but hills likely staying dry. However, hills above 600m are likely to see periods where they remain above the early cloud. This cloud then burning away and clearing through the morning, leading to a widely sunny day. Still a little breezy on the tops, but feeling rather warm.
Chance of cloud-free hill tops
80% during the morning. Otherwise 100%
Low cloud and visibility
Summits will likely remain above any low cloud between 300-600m through the morning, but otherwise all hills likely staying cloud free. Visibility will be good to very good, with distance hills visible, but perhaps hazy at times. Any low cloud early in the day could bring some spells of poor visibility below 600m.
Ground conditions
No recent ground conditions report available.
