Cloud-free timing: Around 0% early, improving to around 100% later.

A mixed day on Y Lliwedd: summit wind broadly 10-30 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 around 800-1100 m in the morning, lifting to 1000-1300 m around midday and 1500-1800 m by late afternoon. The top is likely to drift in and out of cloud; views may come and go. Cloud is likely to hang lowest on western slopes; the eastern side should see somewhat higher bases and better breaks. Little or no rain expected. Cold on top: air temperature broadly 4 to 8°C, feeling around -2 to 2°C in the wind - wrap up.

Cloud-free timing: Around 50% early, improving to around 100% later.

A fine day on Y Lliwedd: summit wind broadly 5-20 mph, with gusts 15-25 mph around midday (fresh and blowy). Any cloud sits well above the tops (base 1000-1600 m) - clear summits. 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.

A mixed day on Y Lliwedd: summit wind broadly 15-30 mph, with gusts 30-40 mph during the afternoon (strong winds). Much calmer lower down - generally 5-15 mph in the valley, rising towards the tops. Any cloud sits well above the tops (base 1100-1400 m) - clear summits. Little or no rain expected. Bright spells with UV up to 5 - sunscreen on exposed skin. Confidence moderate - the forecast models differ somewhat (the forecast models show a moderate spread), so treat the numbers as a guide. Treat the cloud base with caution - the models disagree on humidity, so it could be well above or below the figure given.
