A mixed day on Hart 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 600-1600 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 NW slopes, down to about 900-1200 m; the SE side should be clearer, lifting to around 1200-1500 m. Little or no rain expected. Cold on top: air temperature broadly 4 to 8°C, feeling around 0 to 4°C in the wind - wrap up.

A mixed day on Hart Fell: summit wind broadly 20-35 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 700-1100 m - 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 will be lowest on the W slopes, down to about 900-1200 m; the E side should be clearer, lifting to around 1100-1400 m.

Low confidence (ensemble members are widely spread) - the summit peak could be anywhere from 19 to 36 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.
