Snowdonia ‘Live’ Webcams
http://www.fhc.co.uk/weather/live/
These web cameras provide the first high level mountain panaromas in Wales. They offer you a year round window on the high mountains of Snowdonia, updated every minute. Quite amazing really.
Met Office Info for the area.
I could not use these services, while on the Glyders, [see earlier note about o2 signal] . However, I tell you all about it, dear readers, ‘cos to know about the weather locally, is very important for safety. This is a wicked service however, giving a localised 6 hour report. Just what the average walker in these parts would require. This is a national service, however, based on location, or postcode.
