Very Wintry.

2nd January 2026

Last night snow showers fell at all levels these continued through this morning often heavy at times. The freezing level was around 100 metres and the North-North-Westerly were fresh to strong.  Localised deposits of poorly bonded windslab were forming in wind sheltered locations mostly on East to Southerly aspects mainly above 900 metres. Most affected areas are where deeper accumulations have formed on older frozen deposits particularly around gully tops, coire rims and ridge flanks. Fragile cornices were also noted.

Folks leaving the road heading into Lairig Eilde this morning with a light covering of new snow.
