Cloudy and cold.

29th December 2025

Cloudy from around 700 metres on Lochnagar today. Walked up hoping the top would be clear again but no joy. Stopped around 1030 metres, just in time for a hail shower.  Cold all the way, very icy underfoot.

Looks a better day tomorrow (Tuesday).

Glas-allt Shiel Waterfalls. Been a long time since I’ve seen them frozen!

 

Very icy on the footpaths with shallow burns well frozen. Around -2 overnight at 900 metres, -1 during the day.

 

Snow cover is very patchy, most of these areas are above 950 metres on N to E aspects. All remaining snow is very hard and icy.
