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 Sguman Coinntich: summit wind broadly 10-30 mph, with gusts 25-35 mph early in 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 0-10 mph in the valley, rising towards the tops. Little or no rain expected.

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

A grey, cloudy day on Sguman Coinntich: summit wind broadly 10-25 mph, with gusts 25-35 mph during the morning (fresh and blowy). Much calmer lower down - generally 0-10 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 the top to stay in cloud for most or all of daylight, with no dependable break. Cloud is likely to hang lowest on northeastern slopes; the southwestern 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. 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.

A grey, cloudy day on Sguman Coinntich: summit wind broadly 0-10 mph, with gusts 5-15 mph during the afternoon (a moderate breeze). Thunderstorms are possible from the morning into the afternoon. Keep an escape route from exposed ridges and descend if thunder develops. Cloud base around 400–700 m through the morning, lifting to 600–900 m by late afternoon. Expect clag for much of the day, though a brief clearance is possible during the afternoon. Some rain is likely, with up to around 2 mm indicated; timing and local totals remain uncertain. 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.
