Mild, wet and windy
16th December 2023
A very mild day with spells of rain. South-Westerly winds were gusting over 100 mph at plateau level. Continuing mild during Sunday before cooler conditions arrive on Monday.
Heading in towards Coire an t- Sneachda. Apart from the gusty wind, postholing was also a hazard on the remaining patches of snow.
Coire an t-Sneachda.
Retreating from Coire an t-Sneachda. The high point was the corrie floor, it was too gusty to keep going.
4 legs is a great advantage in windy conditions.
The Cairngorms at 8.30 this morning. The photo below was taken at the same time yesterday morning, note the snow loss.
