Summary for all mountain areas
A largely dry day for the Highlands, light winds inland and north, some sun, but a layer of cloud increasingly covers the sky from the south, later some rain moving into coastal areas. A little rain for northern England and Wales, locally risk of a heavier burst of rain forming. Gusty southerly winds particularly Wales.
Headline for Southeastern Highlands
Light wind. Generally dry until late, variable cloud largely clears.
How windy? (On the Munros)
Variable 10mph or less, orienting east-southeasterly and rising to 10-15mph evening, some stronger gusts later central highlands.
Effect of the wind on you?
Small.
How Wet?
Dry most of daylight, rain into night
Late in the day, some patchy rain approaches from the southwest, but most Munros stay dry until nighttime, then rain extends more widely northeast, odd heavier bursts.
Cloud on the hills?
Varied cloud lifting into afternoon
Banks of cloud at various heights in the morning, more extensive for a time, including in glens and corries. Cloud lifts, dissipating through morning for clearing Munros into afternoon. Up to dusk, some lowering cloud from south.
Chance of cloud free Munros?
50% rising to 80%
Sunshine and air clarity?
Mixed cloud early in day, becoming sunnier for a time, high cloud then thickening through afternoon. Very good visibility after misty start around some slopes.
How Cold? (at 900m)
4 or 5C at dawn, rising to 9 or 10C.
Freezing Level
Above the summits.

How windy? (On the Munros)
Southerly 15-20mph, trending higher with time, gusts to 25-30mph over high summits afternoon.
Effect of the wind on you?
Fairly small for a time, but increasingly blustery, ease of walking affected in exposure and feeling chilly.
How Wet?
Patchy rain
Patchy rain drifts from the south and southwest much of the day. Dry windows probably for several midday hours, but always a risk of light patches drifting into eastern hills. Later, more frequent falls return from southwest.
Cloud on the hills?
Extensive
All hills shrouded above 600-700m all day, lower bases in the morning. Some brief higher breaks north of Loch Rannoch to Glenshee afternoon, but then returning widely extensively into evening.
Chance of cloud free Munros?
10%
Sunshine and air clarity?
Overcast, often dull. Poor visibility on high terrain due to fog, better under cloud.
How Cold? (at 900m)
6C rising to 9C. Feeling like +1 to 3C in direct wind.
Freezing Level
Above the summits.

How windy? (On the Munros)
Southwesterly 20 to 30mph, in places stronger gusts around highest summits.
Effect of the wind on you?
Fairly small in places, but some blustery slopes, may make walking more strenuous on exposed high terrain.
How Wet?
Intermittent rain
Patchy rain, more frequent rain central highlands for periods, some showery rain mixed in passing eastwards. Drier more often southeast from Glenshee.
Cloud on the hills?
Most persistent west, may improve
Fairly extensive over hills in rain. The most persistent cloud near Callander, to 600m around rain. Often capping most hills west of A9 to 800-900m, higher eastward. Rising afternoon, some breaks forming.
Chance of cloud free Munros?
30%
Sunshine and air clarity?
Fairly cloudy, glimpses of sun, mainly eastern areas. Visibility very good, but reduced at times around rain.
How Cold? (at 900m)
8C rising to 11C out of cloud in afternoon. Feeling near to freezing directly in wind.
Freezing Level
Above the summits.
Planning Outlook
A variable southwesterly will dominate through mid to late this week - windy at times with periods of rain, drizzle and low cloud most persistent in the west. Pressure generally trending higher from the south by the weekend, though into Saturday at least a damp westerly likely prevails into western Scotland. Warmest in England and Wales, but cooler in Scotland as low pressure to the northwest recycles air from the north Atlantic back onto the Munros. A window of drier and warmer weather is favoured into early the following week (22nd June), though a mixed Atlantic pattern may linger near to northwest Scotland in the longer range.
