After a chilly start, a fine day will follow with a patchwork of sunshine. Chance of a few bursts of rain here and there, mainly inland in the afternoon. High cloud bases with hills extensively clear, although some banks of hill fog at first; particularly SE Highlands.
Early cloud banks clearing. Then fine with hazy sun. Later blustery in west.
Southerly 10-20mph, strongest Galloway, where possibly 30mph by evening. Elsewhere, increase in speed small.
Mostly small, but expect some buffeting Galloway later in day - affecting both higher and lower slopes.
Little or no rain
Chance of a few bursts of rain; likely to amount to very little.
Very little, bar some early cloud banks.
Summits extensively or completely cloud free. However some early banks possible for a few hours after dawn, mainly easternmost hills and also close to Solway

Low confidence in forecast: Easterly 20 to 30mph, risk 40mph higher tops for a few hours later.
Will increasingly impede walking across the hills, perhaps arduous later on tops.
Increasing risk of rain setting in from south
May well be a dry start to the day, but increasing risk through the day of pulses of rain edging in from the south. When it arrives, expect some heavy falls.
Becoming extensive in rain.
Perhaps mostly clear start, although threat of some patches higher tops. However, increasingly through day as rain edges north, hill fog becoming extensive.
40%
Some early sun through high cloud possible, but soon becoming overcast. Visibility very good at first, but will deteriorate and become poor in rain.
7C

North to northeasterly 5 to 15mph, least wind in afternoon.
Mostly negligible
Scattered showers
A scattering of showers developing from mid morning onwards. Perhaps some locally heavy ones by afternoon.
Mostly clear, but some early banks in east.
Hills mostly clear, but risk for a few hours early morning of cloud capping eastern hills in fog.
70%
A patchwork of sun, but skies tending to fill in with cloud inland into the afternoon. Visibility very good away from showers.
5 to 7C; chilliest easternmost hills.
Above the summits.
Fairly chilly pattern early next week, but mostly fine with hills often clear as a ridge of high pressure dominates. However from midweek onwards, whilst turning warmer, it will become more changeable with the risk of pulses of showery rain from time to time as pressure gradually lowers from the west. However, there will still be some dry and fine periods; these conditions perhaps predominating still across eastern areas where broadly any rainfall amounts will be small.
