Dead Stones weather forecast.

Cloud-free timing: Cloudy early, clearing later.

A fine day on Dead Stones: summit wind broadly 10-25 mph, with gusts 20-30 mph during the afternoon (fresh and blowy). Cloud is likely to hang lowest on eastern slopes; the western side should see somewhat higher bases and better breaks. Little or no rain expected.

Forecast confidence: Thunderstorm timing is inherently uncertain and may shift by several hours.

Cloud-free timing: Cloudy early, clearing later.

A fine day on Dead Stones: summit wind broadly 15-25 mph, with gusts 25-35 mph during the afternoon (fresh and blowy). A meaningful thunderstorm risk is indicated from around midday into the evening. Avoid committing to exposed ridges if storms begin to build. Any cloud sits well above the tops (base 1000-2000 m) - clear summits. Little or no rain expected.

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

Cloud-free timing: Best around midday at about 75%; around 0% early and 0% later.

A grey, cloudy day on Dead Stones: summit wind broadly 5-20 mph, with gusts 20-30 mph during the evening (fresh and blowy). Thunderstorms are possible from the morning into the evening. Keep an escape route from exposed ridges and descend if thunder develops. Cloud base around 500–800 m in the morning, then around 700–1000 m around midday and 500–800 m by late afternoon. The top is likely to drift in and out of cloud, with the best chance of a view from late morning into midday. Some rain is likely, with around 5-10 mm indicated; timing and local totals remain uncertain.

Forecast confidence: Thunderstorm timing is inherently uncertain and may shift by several hours.

A rough, clagged-in day on Dead Stones: summit wind broadly 5-25 mph, with gusts 25-35 mph during the evening (fresh and blowy). A meaningful thunderstorm risk is indicated from late afternoon into the evening. Avoid committing to exposed ridges if storms begin to build. There could be a spate risk based on forecast rainfall. Burns and unbridged crossings may rise quickly. Most likely from around 00:00 until around 20:00. 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. Cloud is likely to hang lowest on northwestern slopes; the southeastern 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. Confidence moderate (Summit wind could be roughly 15-26 mph, which changes how difficult exposed walking may feel) - the summit peak could reasonably be 15-26 mph, so treat the headline as mid-range.

Forecast confidence: Rain is possible, but forecast models differ by about 14 hours on when it arrives.

Cloud-free timing: Around 0% early, improving to around 40% later.

A grey, cloudy day on Dead Stones: summit wind broadly 5-25 mph, with gusts 20-30 mph early in the morning (fresh and blowy). The ground is likely to be wet after recent rain. Cloud base around 400–700 m in the morning, then around 600–900 m around midday and 500–800 m by late afternoon. The top is likely to drift in and out of cloud, with the best chance of a view during the afternoon. Some rain is likely, with up to around 2 mm indicated; timing and local totals remain uncertain.

Forecast confidence: Thunderstorm timing is inherently uncertain and may shift by several hours.

Cloud-free timing: Around 0% early, improving to around 60% later.

A mixed day on Dead Stones: summit wind broadly 10-25 mph, with gusts 25-35 mph early in the morning (fresh and blowy). A meaningful thunderstorm risk is indicated from the morning into the evening. Avoid committing to exposed ridges if storms begin to build. The ground is likely to be wet after recent rain. Cloud base around 400–700 m in the morning, lifting to 900–1200 m around midday and 800–1100 m by late afternoon. The top is likely to drift in and out of cloud, with the best chance of a view from around midday into the evening. Cloud is likely to hang lowest on southwestern slopes; the northeastern side should see somewhat higher bases and better breaks. Some rain is likely, with up to around 2 mm indicated; timing and local totals remain uncertain. Confidence moderate (forecast models agree on the walking impact of the wind) - the summit peak could reasonably be 16-27 mph, so treat the headline as mid-range.

Forecast confidence: Thunderstorm timing is inherently uncertain and may shift by several hours.

Cloud-free timing: Around 0% early, improving to around 100% later.

A mixed day on Dead Stones: summit wind broadly 15-30 mph, with gusts 35-45 mph during the evening (strong winds). A meaningful thunderstorm risk is indicated from early morning into the evening. Avoid committing to exposed ridges if storms begin to build. Much calmer lower down - generally 10-20 mph in the valley, rising towards the tops. Cloud base around 400–700 m in the morning, lifting to 600–900 m around midday and 900–1200 m by late afternoon. The top is likely to drift in and out of cloud, with the best chance of a view from late afternoon into the evening. Cloud is likely to hang lowest on western slopes; the eastern side should see somewhat higher bases and better breaks. Some rain is likely, with around 2-5 mm indicated; timing and local totals remain uncertain. Low confidence (Summit wind could be roughly 15-39 mph, which changes how difficult exposed walking may feel) - the summit peak could be anywhere from 15 to 39 mph; check again nearer the time.
