High confidence
Wind15 mph NW Gusts21 mph Feels10°C Rain0.0 mm Cloud base1,552 m Freezing level2,140 m

A fine day on Ivinghoe Beacon: summit wind broadly 5-20 mph, with gusts 15-25 mph around midday (fresh and blowy). Any cloud sits well above the tops (base 1500-1800 m) - clear summits. Cloud will be lowest on the NW slopes, down to about 1400-1700 m; the SE side should be clearer, lifting to around 1600-1900 m. Little or no rain expected. 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.
