Default Snow in the Cairngorms ?

A member of the Belgian (Flemish) weather discussion group has told me in an
e-mail that it was snowing in the Cairngorms on Friday. Can anyone confirm
this ? How unusual would snowfall be on the highest Scottish peaks in the
second half of June ?


Not particularly unusual. It can snow on the peaks at any time of the
year. I recall standing on the summit of Cairngorm on 1st August in
heavy snow many moons ago.
