A rough, clagged-in day on Beinn Ìme: summit wind broadly 25-40 mph, with gusts 45-55 mph during the morning (gale-force winds). A meaningful thunderstorm risk is indicated from the morning into the evening. Avoid committing to exposed ridges if storms begin to build.

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.
