Extensively dry with patches of sun, although a few brief showers. However, it will remain chilly, particularly near the coast of NW Scotland, where higher areas will be below freezing point.
Cold. Risk of a shower - of hail or snow.
North to northwesterly, 15 to 25mph, strongest on summits near and east of Glenshee.
Fairly small effect on walking, but blustery in places and feeling cool where exposed on higher tops, especially in east.
Little or no precipitation
Many areas dry all day, but from about midday, here and there a shower, of hail, or snow on higher tops.
Nearly all summits clearing during morning
Fragments on higher slopes until mid or late morning will then almost all clear.

Direction may well vary, mostly less than 15mph, perhaps calm on some summits. But locally gusts 25mph in precipitation.
Mostly negligible, although temporary sudden buffeting near precipitation in the afternoon.
Areas of heavy precipitation developing
A few patches of rain, or above 800m snow, will drift about lowly from dawn. Will deteriorate from later morning as precipitation becomes widespread and heavy with risk thunder. Total rainfall very varied over a few miles.
Will come and go, sometimes extensive and shrouding lower slopes
Considerable variation, particularly afternoon. Broadly, cloud base will rise from 750m after dawn toward 1100m late morning. But in precipitation expect fog widely on higher slopes and in some areas on lower slopes as well.

Patches of sunshine will tend to give way to occasional bursts of sun, although some coasts will become sunnier. Very poor visibility in snow, but often excellent.
2C, but up to 4C afternoon.
1050m, although 1250m away from precipitation by afternoon. Frost at first some valleys and upland dips.
Relatively low temperatures on the mountains much of next week; particularly on the Scottish highlands where higher tops will frequently be near freezing point. Showers, some heavy and thundery, giving hail and on higher tops snow, will be widespread, particularly in the afternoons, when in some areas they will merge to give a few hours of precipitation.
