Forecast confidence: A low thunderstorm risk remains difficult to time precisely.
from late afternoon into the evening. Leave exposed summits and ridges if thunder develops.
Cloud-free timing: Cloudy early, clearing later.
A mixed day on Meall Horn: summit wind broadly 15-30 mph, with gusts 30-40 mph during the morning (strong winds). Thunder watch from late afternoon into the evening: a small but credible risk is present. Watch for growing clouds and leave exposed tops if thunder develops. Much calmer lower down - generally 5-15 mph in the valley, rising towards the tops. Cloud base around 300–600 m in the morning, then around 900–1200 m around midday and 700–1000 m by late afternoon. Summit cloud should lift later, bringing a better chance of clear views. Little or no rain expected.
