Haytor weather forecast.

Cloud-free timing: Cloudy early, clearing later.

A fine day on Haytor: summit wind broadly 5-20 mph, with gusts 15-25 mph around midday (a moderate breeze). Thunder watch from early morning into the evening: a small but credible risk is present. Watch for growing clouds and leave exposed tops if thunder develops. Any cloud sits well above the tops (base 500-800 m) - clear summits. 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 mixed day on Haytor: summit wind broadly 10-25 mph, with gusts 20-30 mph during the evening (fresh and blowy). Thunderstorms are forecast from early morning into the evening. Avoid exposed summits and ridges during the risk period. There could be a spate risk based on forecast rainfall. Burns and unbridged crossings may rise quickly. Most likely from around 01:00 until around 11:00. Cloud base around 300–600 m in the morning, lifting to 700–1000 m around midday and 900–1200 m by late afternoon. Summit cloud should lift later, bringing a better chance of clear views. Cloud is likely to hang lowest on southern slopes; the northern 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: Around 67% early, improving to around 100% later.

A mixed day on Haytor: summit wind broadly 15-25 mph, with gusts 25-35 mph during the morning (strong winds). A meaningful thunderstorm risk is indicated from early morning 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. Any cloud sits well above the tops (base 400-700 m) - clear summits. 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.

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

A mixed day on Haytor: summit wind broadly 20-30 mph, with gusts 30-40 mph during the afternoon (strong winds). A meaningful thunderstorm risk is indicated from early morning into the afternoon. Avoid committing to exposed ridges if storms begin to build. Any cloud sits well above the tops (base 400-1000 m) - clear summits. 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. Bright spells with UV up to 6 - sunscreen on exposed skin. Confidence moderate (forecast models agree on the walking impact of the wind) - the summit peak could reasonably be 20-30 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: Thunderstorm timing is inherently uncertain and may shift by several hours.

A mixed day on Haytor: summit wind broadly 15-30 mph, with gusts 30-40 mph during the evening (strong winds). Thunderstorms are a significant hazard from the morning into the evening. Exposed summits and ridges are a poor choice while storms are nearby. Much calmer lower down - generally 5-15 mph in the valley, rising towards the tops. Any cloud sits well above the tops (base 500-1000 m) - clear summits. Cloud is likely to hang lowest on southwestern slopes; the northeastern side should see somewhat higher bases and better breaks. Little or no rain expected. Bright spells with UV up to 6 - sunscreen on exposed skin. Confidence moderate (forecast models agree on the walking impact of the wind) - the summit peak could reasonably be 22-28 mph, so treat the headline as mid-range.

Forecast confidence: Summit wind could be roughly 24-36 mph, which changes how difficult exposed walking may feel.

A mixed day on Haytor: summit wind broadly 20-35 mph, with gusts 35-45 mph early in the morning (gale-force winds). Much calmer lower down - generally 10-20 mph in the valley, rising towards the tops. Any cloud sits well above the tops (base 1400-2000 m) - clear summits. Cloud is likely to hang lowest on western slopes; the eastern side should see somewhat higher bases and better breaks. Little or no rain expected. Confidence moderate (Summit wind could be roughly 24-36 mph, which changes how difficult exposed walking may feel) - the summit peak could reasonably be 24-36 mph, so treat the headline as mid-range.

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

A mixed day on Haytor: summit wind broadly 10-25 mph, with gusts 25-35 mph early in the morning (strong winds). Thunderstorms are possible from the morning into the afternoon. Keep an escape route from exposed ridges and descend if thunder develops. Any cloud sits well above the tops (base 700-1100 m) - clear summits. Cloud is likely to hang lowest on western slopes; the eastern 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 16-26 mph, so treat the headline as mid-range.
