Very wintery
10th February 2022
There were difficult conditions in the mountains today with very strong Westerly winds and snow showers. Even when it wasn’t snowing there was airborne snow being carried by the wind. Areas exposed to the wind were scoured and often icy but unstable windslab was accumulating quickly in sheltered locations.

On Meall a’ Bhuiridh ridges were getting scoured but gullies and hollows accumulating snow fairly quickly in the strong Westerly winds today.

Not great conditions for photography but it’s drifting snow rather than cloud that can be seen getting blown over Creag Dhubh.
