We're staying at the Mardale Inn in Bampton, going for a 7am start as it'll be touch and go whether I can fo fast enough to make the cutoff!

MWIS latest:
Northwest or northerly 30 to 40mph gusts 45 to perhaps 60mph.
Very likely only isolated, if any snow flurries. But small risk of widespread showers, most likely southwestern fells.
The fells largely cloud free, with fragments on higher fells only occasionally
Bright sun, probably widespread. The air very clear indeed, but visibility very poor in snow and cloud.
Freezing level more or less valley level, with terrain more or less frozen. -3 at 750m
