Default Cairngorm

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!

Hi, Norman,
Quite gentle by comparison, however Great Dun Fell area 20 miles from here
and just short of 3000ft is gusting 61KT at 3C. Anemometer hasn't been
recording correctly for some time but I estimate around 54KT mean speed so
far. I expect a lull is awaited before the instruments are fixed!
