A mixed day on Baosbheinn: summit wind broadly 15-30 mph, with gusts 30-40 mph during the morning (strong winds). Much calmer lower down - generally 5-15 mph in the valley, rising towards the tops. Little or no rain expected.

Forecast confidence: A low thunderstorm risk remains difficult to time precisely.

Thunder risk: low

from late afternoon into the evening. Leave exposed summits and ridges if thunder develops.

A mixed day on Baosbheinn: summit wind broadly 10-30 mph, with gusts 35-45 mph early in the morning (strong winds). Thunderstorms are possible from late afternoon into the evening. Keep an escape route from exposed ridges and descend if thunder develops. Much calmer lower down - generally 0-10 mph in the valley, rising towards the tops. Any cloud sits well above the tops (base 1400-3100 m) - clear summits. Little or no rain expected. Confidence moderate (Summit wind could be roughly 21-34 mph, which changes how difficult exposed walking may feel) - the summit peak could reasonably be 21-34 mph, so treat the headline as mid-range.

A grey, cloudy day on Baosbheinn: summit wind broadly 10-20 mph, with gusts 20-30 mph during the evening (fresh and blowy). Cloud base mostly around 400–700 m through daylight. Expect the top to stay in cloud for most or all of daylight, with no dependable break. Some rain is likely, with up to around 2 mm indicated; timing and local totals remain uncertain. Cloud base is the least certain part of this - the models are only moderately agreed, so it could sit a couple of hundred metres either way.

A rough, clagged-in day on Baosbheinn: summit wind broadly 5-15 mph, with gusts 10-20 mph during the afternoon (a moderate breeze). A meaningful thunderstorm risk is indicated from early morning into the evening. Avoid committing to exposed ridges if storms begin to build. Cloud base around 400–700 m through the morning, lifting to 600–900 m by late afternoon. Expect the top to stay in cloud for most or all of daylight, with no dependable break. A persistently wet day is possible, with around 5-10 mm indicated; local totals could vary considerably. Cloud base is the least certain part of this - the models are only moderately agreed, so it could sit a couple of hundred metres either way.

Spate watch

Burns and unbridged crossings may rise quickly. Assess them at the water and turn back if unsure.

Cloud-free timing: Best around midday at about 100%; around 0% early and 0% later.

A rough, clagged-in day on Baosbheinn: summit wind broadly 10-35 mph, with gusts 40-50 mph during the evening (gale-force winds). The ground is likely to be wet after recent rain. There could be a spate risk based on forecast rainfall. Burns and unbridged crossings may rise quickly. Most likely from around 08:00 until around 23:00. Much calmer lower down - generally 0-10 mph in the valley, rising towards the tops. Cloud base around 400–700 m in the morning, then around 1800–2100 m around midday and 400–700 m by late afternoon. The top is likely to drift in and out of cloud, with the best chance of a view from the morning into the afternoon. Cloud is likely to hang lowest on southwestern slopes; the northeastern side should see somewhat higher bases and better breaks. A persistently wet day is possible, with around 5-10 mm indicated; local totals could vary considerably. Low confidence (Summit wind could be roughly 20-58 mph, which changes how difficult exposed walking may feel) - the summit peak could be anywhere from 20 to 58 mph; check again nearer the time.
