It's a bit bracing on the summit of Cairngorm this morning. The 0700z
observation was

SE 88 knots gusting 100 knots with a temperature of -0.1C.

At 0400z it was SSE 92 knots gusting 106 knots but the temperature was a
balmy +1.2C.

Not many walkers up there today!

The Daily Wail said that 70mph gales had blown our summer away - so they
were not exaggerating (if you were talking about a Scottish mountain!).
And the Daily Excess is also talking about 70mph gales this week.
