Pendle Hill weather forecast.

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 Pendle Hill: summit wind broadly 15-35 mph, with gusts 40-50 mph during the evening (gale-force 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 0-10 mph in the valley, rising towards the tops. Any cloud sits well above the tops (base 500-2100 m) - clear summits. 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.

Cloud-free timing: Around 0% early, improving to around 20% later.

A rough, clagged-in day on Pendle Hill: summit wind broadly 15-35 mph, with gusts 40-50 mph around midday (gale-force winds). A meaningful thunderstorm risk is indicated from the morning into 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, then around 3000–3300 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 midday into the afternoon. Cloud is likely to hang lowest on eastern slopes; the western 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.

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

Cloud-free timing: Best around midday at about 50%; around 0% early and 0% later.

A grey, cloudy day on Pendle Hill: summit wind broadly 15-35 mph, with gusts 35-45 mph during the evening (gale-force winds). Thunderstorms are a significant hazard from early 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. Cloud base around 400–700 m in the morning, then around 600–900 m around midday and 400–700 m by late afternoon. Expect clag for much of the day, though a brief clearance is possible around midday. 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: Forecast models disagree on whether meaningful rain reaches the hills during 10:00-16:00.

A grey, cloudy day on Pendle Hill: summit wind broadly 10-25 mph, with gusts 20-30 mph during the morning (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. 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.

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

Cloud-free timing: Cloudy early, clearing later.

A mixed day on Pendle Hill: 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. Cloud base around 400–700 m in the morning, lifting to 700–1000 m around midday and 1800–2100 m by late afternoon. Summit cloud should lift later, bringing a better chance of clear views. 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.

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

Cloud-free timing: Cloudy early, clearing later.

A wild day on Pendle Hill: summit wind broadly 35-50 mph, with gusts 60-70 mph during the afternoon (storm-force winds). Thunderstorms are possible from the morning into the afternoon. Keep an escape route from exposed ridges and descend if thunder develops. Much calmer lower down - generally 15-25 mph in the valley, rising towards the tops. 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 5-10 mm indicated; timing and local totals remain uncertain. Confidence moderate (Summit wind could be roughly 38-54 mph, which changes how difficult exposed walking may feel) - the summit peak could reasonably be 38-54 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: Cloudy early, clearing later.

A wild day on Pendle Hill: summit wind broadly 30-45 mph, with gusts 50-60 mph during the afternoon (gale-force winds). Much calmer lower down - generally 15-25 mph in the valley, rising towards the tops. 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 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 33-45 mph, so treat the headline as mid-range.
