A fine day on High Willhays: summit wind broadly 10-20 mph, with gusts 20-30 mph early in the morning (fresh and blowy). Any cloud sits well above the tops (base 800-1600 m) - clear summits. Little or no rain expected.

A fine day on High Willhays: summit wind broadly 5-15 mph, with gusts 10-20 mph during the evening (a moderate breeze). Any cloud sits well above the tops (base 1200-1900 m) - clear summits. Little or no rain expected. Bright spells with UV up to 5 - sunscreen on exposed skin. Confidence moderate (ensemble members show a moderate spread) - the summit peak could reasonably be 9-15 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.
