Ben Vuirich weather forecast.

A wild day on Ben Vuirich: summit wind broadly 15-40 mph, with gusts 40-50 mph early in the morning (gale-force winds). Much calmer lower down - generally 5-15 mph in the valley, rising towards the tops. Any cloud sits well above the tops (base 1000-1600 m) - clear summits. Little or no rain expected. Cold on top: air temperature broadly 2 to 6°C, feeling around -4 to 0°C in the wind - wrap up.

A rough, clagged-in day on Ben Vuirich: summit wind broadly 25-45 mph, with gusts 50-60 mph during the evening (storm-force winds). Much calmer lower down - generally 5-15 mph in the valley, rising towards the tops. Cloud base 500-800 m - expect the top to stay in cloud for most or all of the day, with no dependable break. Cloud will be lowest on the SW slopes, down to about 400-700 m; the NE side should be clearer, lifting to around 800-1100 m. Some rain is likely, with around 2-5 mm indicated; timing and local totals remain uncertain. Cold on top: air temperature broadly 4 to 8°C, feeling around -2 to 2°C in the wind - wrap up. Confidence moderate (ensemble members show a moderate spread) - the summit peak could reasonably be 32-50 mph, so treat the headline as mid-range.

A wild day on Ben Vuirich: summit wind broadly 20-40 mph, with gusts 40-50 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 500-1500 m - the top is likely to drift in and out of cloud, with the best chance of a view from the morning into the evening. The cloud base is very changeable today - it could sit much higher or lower than that at times, so read the sky. Cloud will be lowest on the W slopes, down to about 1300-1600 m; the E side should be clearer, lifting to around 1500-1800 m. Little or no rain expected. Low confidence (ensemble members are widely spread) - the summit peak could be anywhere from 20 to 41 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.

A fine day on Ben Vuirich: summit wind broadly 5-20 mph, with gusts 15-25 mph early in the morning (a moderate breeze). Any cloud sits well above the tops (base 1400-1700 m) - clear summits. Little or no rain expected. Bright spells with UV up to 5 - sunscreen on exposed skin. Low confidence (ensemble members are widely spread) - the summit peak could be anywhere from 9 to 26 mph; check again nearer the time.

A mixed day on Ben Vuirich: summit wind broadly 10-20 mph, with gusts 20-30 mph during the evening (fresh and blowy). Cloud base 600-1600 m - the top is likely to drift in and out of cloud, with the best chance of a view from the morning into the evening. The cloud base is very changeable today - it could sit much higher or lower than that at times, so read the sky. Little or no rain expected. Bright spells with UV up to 5 - sunscreen on exposed skin.
