A mixed day on Flinty Fell: summit wind broadly 15-30 mph, with gusts 30-40 mph early in the morning (strong winds). Much calmer lower down - generally 5-15 mph in the valley, rising towards the tops. Cloud base 500-1600 m - the top is likely to drift in and out of cloud, with the best chance of a view from around midday 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 700-1000 m; the E side should be clearer, lifting to around 900-1200 m. Some rain is likely, with up to around 2 mm indicated; timing and local totals remain uncertain.

A mixed day on Flinty Fell: summit wind broadly 20-35 mph, with gusts 35-45 mph during the afternoon (strong winds). 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 SW slopes, down to about 1100-1400 m; the NE side should be clearer, lifting to around 1300-1600 m. Little or no rain expected. Bright spells with UV up to 6 - sunscreen on exposed skin. Confidence moderate (ensemble members show a moderate spread) - the summit peak could reasonably be 24-32 mph, so treat the headline as mid-range. 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.
