Ben Ledi weather forecast.

Cloud-free timing: Around 50% early, improving to around 100% later.

A mixed day on Ben Ledi: summit wind broadly 10-30 mph, with gusts 30-40 mph early in the morning (strong winds). The ground is likely to be saturated after recent rain. Expect boggy paths and rapid runoff if more rain arrives. Much calmer lower down - generally 0-10 mph in the valley, rising towards the tops. Any cloud sits well above the tops (base 1400-1700 m) - clear summits. Cloud is likely to hang lowest on northwestern slopes; the southeastern side should see somewhat higher bases and better breaks. Little or no rain expected.

Cloud-free timing: Around 0% early, improving to around 83% later.

A rough, clagged-in day on Ben Ledi: summit wind broadly 25-40 mph, with gusts 45-55 mph during the evening (gale-force winds). The ground is likely to be saturated after recent rain. Expect boggy paths and rapid runoff if more rain arrives. Much calmer lower down - generally 5-15 mph in the valley, rising towards the tops. Cloud base around 500-800 m in the morning, lifting to 500-800 m around midday and 1000-1300 m by late afternoon. The top is likely to drift in and out of cloud, with the best chance of a view from late afternoon into the evening. 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. Cold on top: air temperature broadly 6 to 10°C, feeling around 0 to 4°C in the wind - wrap up. Confidence moderate (ensemble members show a moderate spread) - the summit peak could reasonably be 27-46 mph, so treat the headline as mid-range.

Cloud-free timing: Around 75% early, falling to around 0% later.

A rough, clagged-in day on Ben Ledi: summit wind broadly 30-50 mph, with gusts 60-70 mph around midday (storm-force winds). There could be a spate risk based on forecast rainfall. Burns and unbridged crossings may rise quickly. Most likely from around 11:00 until around 03:00 the following day. Much calmer lower down - generally 5-15 mph in the valley, rising towards the tops. Cloud base around 1900-2200 m in the morning, lowering to 500-800 m around midday and 300-600 m by late afternoon. Expect clag for much of the day, though a brief clearance is possible early in the morning. Cloud is likely to hang lowest on southwestern slopes; the northeastern side should see somewhat higher bases and better breaks. A persistently wet day is possible, with around 10-20 mm indicated; local totals could vary considerably. Confidence moderate (ensemble members show a moderate spread) - the summit peak could reasonably be 29-55 mph, so treat the headline as mid-range.

Cloud-free timing: Around 0% early, improving to around 100% later.

A mixed day on Ben Ledi: summit wind broadly 15-35 mph, with gusts 35-45 mph early in the morning (gale-force winds). Much calmer lower down - generally 5-15 mph in the valley, rising towards the tops. Cloud base around 500-800 m in the morning, lifting to 700-1000 m around midday and 1400-1700 m by late afternoon. The top is likely to drift in and out of cloud, with the best chance of a view from late afternoon into the evening. 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. Low confidence (ensemble members are widely spread) - the summit peak could be anywhere from 21 to 40 mph; check again nearer the time.

A fine day on Ben Ledi: summit wind broadly 5-20 mph, with gusts 15-25 mph early in the morning (fresh and blowy). Much calmer lower down - generally 0-10 mph in the valley, rising towards the tops. Any cloud sits well above the tops (base 1400-1700 m) - clear summits. Little or no rain expected. Bright spells with UV up to 6 - sunscreen on exposed skin. Low confidence (ensemble members are widely spread) - the summit peak could be anywhere from 11 to 32 mph; check again nearer the time. 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.

Cloud-free timing: Around 25% early, improving to around 100% later.

A mixed day on Ben Ledi: summit wind broadly 10-25 mph, with gusts 25-35 mph during the evening (strong winds). Much calmer lower down - generally 0-10 mph in the valley, rising towards the tops.

A grey, cloudy day on Ben Ledi: summit wind broadly 20-35 mph, with gusts 35-45 mph early in the morning (gale-force winds). Thunderstorms are a significant hazard from the afternoon into overnight.

Low confidence (ensemble members are widely spread) - the summit peak could be anywhere from 14 to 58 mph; check again nearer the time. 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.
