Berryhill
Northumberland
Today
|
|||||
|
The last significant rain was 7.2mm on May 3rd, followed by three mostly dry days with moderate temperatures — the south aspect and partial wind exposure have aided drying, but scattered trace precipitation (0.4mm on May 5th, 0.2mm today) and average humidity around 75% mean internal moisture may linger. Conditions are borderline and a careful on-site assessment is essential before committing to climb today, with rain forecast from tomorrow making the coming days unsuitable. |

Dovehole
Northumberland
Today
|
|||||
|
The last significant rain was 1.3mm on May 5th, with a dry day on May 6th and today (May 7th) dry through the afternoon — giving roughly 36–48 hours of drying since the last light rain. However, 7.2mm fell on May 3rd (4 days ago) and the sheltered woodland setting slows drying considerably, so internal moisture may linger; a careful on-site assessment is essential before climbing this afternoon. |

Kyloe-in-the-Woods
Northumberland
Today
|
|||||
|
The last significant rain was 11.4mm on May 3rd, followed by only one full dry day (May 4th and 6th) interspersed with 2.3mm on May 5th and trace precipitation today. While the SW aspect and moderate wind have aided drying, the combination of heavy recent rainfall, cool temperatures, and high average humidity means internal moisture is likely still present — conditions require careful on-site assessment before committing to climb. |

Shaftoe Crags
Northumberland
Today
|
|||||
|
Shaftoe has had a very wet spring with 16.3mm of heavy rain on May 3rd followed by only three mostly dry days and minor precipitation today; the exposed south-facing aspect and moderate wind have aided drying, but scattered boulders will be in mixed condition. With rain forecast tomorrow and heavy rain on May 9th, today's afternoon window may be the best opportunity — but individual problems must be carefully checked before climbing. |

Queens Crag
Northumberland
Today
|
|||||
|
Queens Crag received 16.3mm of heavy rain on May 3rd, followed by further light precipitation on May 5th (1.4mm) and today (0.5mm), with only fragmented drying windows in between. Given the NW aspect, 300m altitude, fine-grained Fell Sandstone, and persistently high humidity (~81% average over the last week), the rock is very likely still holding significant internal moisture despite any surface drying. |

Back Bowden Doors
Northumberland
Today
|
|||||
|
Back Bowden Doors has had a wet and unsettled recent period — 10.1mm on May 3rd, 2.1mm on May 5th, and light rain today — with no sustained dry spell in the sheltered valley to allow adequate drying of the porous Fell Sandstone. With further rain forecast tomorrow and heavy rain on May 9th, conditions are not suitable for climbing and are unlikely to improve this week. |

|||||
|
Great Wanney has not had an adequate drying window: 14.1mm fell on May 3rd, followed by further light rain on May 5th and today (May 7th), with only isolated dry days in between at moderate temperatures and high humidity. The forecast brings more rain tomorrow and heavy rain on May 9th, meaning conditions are unlikely to improve this week. |

Ravens Crag
Northumberland
Today
|
|||||
|
Ravens Crag has had a very unsettled recent period with 9.8mm on May 3rd, further light rain on May 5th (1.7mm), and light precipitation today (0.6mm forecast), leaving insufficient drying time for this slow-drying, sheltered venue. With more rain forecast tomorrow and heavy rain on May 9th and 11th, conditions are not suitable and are unlikely to improve in the coming days. |

Simonside
Northumberland
Today
|
|||||
|
Despite a relatively dry spell from late April into early May, 12.1mm of rain on May 3rd followed by further light precipitation on May 5th and today (May 7th, 2.3mm forecast) means the rock has not had adequate consecutive drying time. The NW aspect at 430m, persistent high humidity, cloud cover, and incoming heavy rain tomorrow make conditions unsuitable. |

Bowden Doors
Northumberland
Today
|
|||||
|
The crag has not had adequate drying time following 9.8mm of rain on May 3rd, with further light precipitation on May 5th (1.7mm) and today (0.6mm), and the forecast brings more rain tomorrow and through the week. With only fragmented dry spells, high humidity (78% average), and cool temperatures (8°C average), internal moisture levels in the porous Fell Sandstone are likely still elevated. |

Kyloe Out
Northumberland
Today
|
|||||
|
The rock has had only about 1.5 dry days since the last significant rain (2.9mm on May 5th, plus 8.9mm on May 3rd), which is insufficient drying time for porous Fell Sandstone even at this exposed SW-facing crag. With further rain forecast from tomorrow through the weekend, conditions are unlikely to improve in the near term. |

Hepburn Crags
Northumberland
Today
|
|||||
|
The rock has not had sufficient drying time since recent rain, with 2.5mm falling on May 5th, 9.3mm on May 3rd, and further light rain today. The upcoming forecast is poor, with heavy rain (13.4mm) expected on May 9th and more on May 11th, making conditions unsuitable for the foreseeable future. |

Ravensheugh
Northumberland
Today
|
|||||
|
Ravensheugh is currently unsafe for climbing: 14.3mm of rain fell on May 3rd, followed by further light precipitation on May 5th and today (May 7th), with more rain forecast through the evening and over the coming days. The NW-facing aspect at 400m, combined with persistently high humidity and cool temperatures, means the rock has had no meaningful drying window and will remain saturated internally. |

Callerhues has had no meaningful dry spell in recent weeks: 12.8mm fell on May 3rd, lighter rain on May 5th and today (May 7th), with more rain forecast through May 9th and again on May 11th. The rock is almost certainly still holding internal moisture and conditions will not improve in the near term. |
