Cloud on higher hills with patchy rain for many areas in the morning. Later, a band of showers forms from central highlands southward into England, drifting down the Pennines; showers will give heavy bursts with a risk of few lightning flashes southern Scotland. Damp in Wales early, gradually improving.
Early rain into drizzly showers, cloud base tending to lift
West to northwesterly 25-30mph; westerly early in the day. Increasing through the afternoon, winds approaching 35-40mph over tops into nighttime.
Walking impeded most of the day, becoming strenuous with buffeting gusts challenging balance on exposed ridges into evening. Feeling cool.
Showers, at times persistent
Often raining early with heavy spots here and there, then drizzly rain much of the day on northwest slopes facing Anglesey. Generally easing through the day, though at times drizzly and damp on high slopes.
Fairly extensive, some improvement; best breaks southeast
Fairly extensive over high terrain much of the day. North and west slopes nearest Anglesey regularly shrouded to middle slopes. Bases tend to rise, tops southeast of Glyder Fawr/Snowdon increasingly clear.
20%, becoming 70% southeast
Greatest chance of glimpses southeast of high tops. Good visibility out of cloud, often poor in rain on north/west slopes.
8 or 9C, little change through the day. Feeling at/near freezing in the wind, notably into nighttime.

Several showery bursts in the morning, greatest chance east; risk briefly heavy. Fading to substantially dry conditions.
Lifting, largely clearing summits
Fairly persistent over high tops from dawn, banks drifting down north and west slopes somewhat; east and south slopes substantially clear. Gradually lifting to clear summits though cloud caps may occasionally drift over highest tops later.

A generally settled start to the week as high pressure will become dominant across England and Wales Monday and Tuesday. Expect substantially dry conditions here through much of the week with good periods of sunshine. In Scotland, low pressure to the north will facilitate a consistent west-southwesterly wind, driving several weak fronts onto northwestern coasts as the week goes - often cloudy here with periods of rain, tending to be drier with sunny spells in east Scotland. Temperatures will be near average. Some uncertainty about next weekend - fronts are likely to continue drifting towards Scotland and north England, though possibly interrupted by dry and warm air from the continent.
