Dùn da Ghaoithe weather forecast.

Cloud-free timing: Cloudy early, clearing later.

A mixed day on Dùn da Ghaoithe: summit wind broadly 15-30 mph, with gusts 30-40 mph early in the morning (strong winds). Much calmer lower down - generally 5-15 mph in the valley, rising towards the tops. Cloud base around 600–900 m in the morning, lifting to 800–1100 m around midday and 1000–1300 m by late afternoon. Summit cloud should lift later, bringing a better chance of clear views. Cloud is likely to hang lowest on southeastern slopes; the northwestern side should see somewhat higher bases and better breaks. Little or no rain expected. Confidence moderate (forecast models agree on the walking impact of the wind) - the summit peak could reasonably be 23-27 mph, so treat the headline as mid-range.

Cloud-free timing: Around 67% early, improving to around 100% later.

A wild day on Dùn da Ghaoithe: summit wind broadly 20-40 mph, with gusts 40-50 mph early in the morning (gale-force winds). Much calmer lower down - generally 5-15 mph in the valley, rising towards the tops. Any cloud sits well above the tops (base 700-1500 m) - clear summits. 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. Confidence moderate (forecast models agree on the walking impact of the wind) - the summit peak could reasonably be 29-39 mph, so treat the headline as mid-range.

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

Cloud-free timing: Cloudy early, clearing later.

A mixed day on Dùn da Ghaoithe: summit wind broadly 5-30 mph, with gusts 30-40 mph early in the morning (strong winds). A meaningful thunderstorm risk is indicated during the evening. Avoid committing to exposed ridges if storms begin to build. Much calmer lower down - generally 0-10 mph in the valley, rising towards the tops. Cloud base around 500-800 m in the morning, lifting to 1400-1700 m around midday. Summit cloud should lift later, bringing a better chance of clear views. Little or no rain expected. Confidence moderate (forecast models agree on the walking impact of the wind) - the summit peak could reasonably be 17-27 mph, so treat the headline as mid-range.

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

Cloud-free timing: Best around midday at about 25%; around 0% early and 0% later.

A grey, cloudy day on Dùn da Ghaoithe: summit wind broadly 10-25 mph, with gusts 25-35 mph during the evening (strong winds). Thunderstorms are possible from the morning into the evening. Keep an escape route from exposed ridges and descend if thunder develops. Much calmer lower down - generally 5-15 mph in the valley, rising towards the tops. Cloud base around 200–500 m in the morning, lifting to 400–700 m around midday and 600–900 m by late afternoon. Expect clag for much of the day, though a brief clearance is possible during the afternoon. Little or no rain expected. Confidence moderate (Summit wind could be roughly 13-31 mph, which changes how difficult exposed walking may feel) - the summit peak could reasonably be 13-31 mph, so treat the headline as mid-range. 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.

Forecast confidence: Rain is possible, but forecast models differ by about 12 hours on when it arrives.

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