Forecast confidence: Thunderstorm timing is inherently uncertain and may shift by several hours.
from around midday into the evening. Leave exposed summits and ridges if thunder develops.
Cloud-free timing: Cloudy early, clearing later.
A mixed day on Seat Sandal: summit wind broadly 15-35 mph, with gusts 35-45 mph early in the morning (gale-force winds). Thunderstorms are a significant hazard from around midday 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 1400-2000 m) - clear summits. Cloud is likely to hang lowest on southeastern slopes; the northwestern 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.
