Shining Tor weather forecast.

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 Shining Tor: summit wind broadly 15-35 mph, with gusts 35-45 mph during the morning (strong winds). A meaningful thunderstorm risk is indicated from the morning into the evening. Avoid committing to exposed ridges if storms begin to build. Severe spate risk based on forecast rainfall. Burns and unbridged crossings may become unsafe or impassable. Most likely from around 11:00 until around 22:00. Much calmer lower down - generally 5-15 mph in the valley, rising towards the tops. Cloud base mostly around 500–800 m through daylight. Expect clag for much of the day, though a brief clearance is possible during the evening. A persistently wet day is possible, with around 20-40 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 100%; around 0% early and 0% later.

A grey, cloudy day on Shining Tor: summit wind broadly 10-30 mph, with gusts 30-40 mph during the evening (strong winds). Thunderstorms are a significant hazard from early morning into the evening. Exposed summits and ridges are a poor choice while storms are nearby. The ground is likely to be wet after recent rain. There could be a spate risk based on forecast rainfall. Burns and unbridged crossings may rise quickly. Most likely from around 13:00 until around 23:00. 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 600–900 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 the morning into the afternoon. 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 (forecast models agree on the walking impact of the wind) - the summit peak could reasonably be 23-28 mph, so treat the headline as mid-range.

Forecast confidence: Forecast models disagree on whether meaningful rain reaches the hills during 10:00-16:00.

A grey, cloudy day on Shining Tor: summit wind broadly 10-25 mph, with gusts 25-35 mph early in 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. 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 18-25 mph, so treat the headline as mid-range.

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

Cloud-free timing: Cloudy early, clearing later.

A mixed day on Shining Tor: summit wind broadly 15-25 mph, with gusts 25-35 mph during the evening (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 900–1200 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 Shining Tor: summit wind broadly 30-40 mph, with gusts 45-55 mph during the afternoon (gale-force winds). Thunderstorms are possible from the morning into the evening. 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 2-5 mm indicated; timing and local totals remain uncertain. Confidence moderate (Summit wind could be roughly 29-45 mph, which changes how difficult exposed walking may feel) - the summit peak could reasonably be 29-45 mph, so treat the headline as mid-range.

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

Cloud-free timing: Cloudy early, clearing later.

A wild day on Shining Tor: summit wind broadly 25-40 mph, with gusts 40-50 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 around 2-5 mm indicated; timing and local totals remain uncertain. Confidence moderate (Summit wind could be roughly 22-37 mph, which changes how difficult exposed walking may feel) - the summit peak could reasonably be 22-37 mph, so treat the headline as mid-range.
