Strong Winds, Poor Visibility and Drifting
6th January 2016
A poor vis day with strong South-East winds that cranked up in strength as the day progressed.
A lot of snow being pushed onto West to North aspects, with frequent sloughs reported on cliffs.
Some consolidation of the snowpack even though its is deep in places. Some snow-ice on East facing and wind scoured slopes.

Cairngorm Summit Weather Station – working well in iced up conditions !
