Crags

Castle Rock of Triermain is currently damp from scattered light rain over recent days, with further showers forecast from early afternoon today and continuing through the next several days. Although the BVS rock does not suffer structural damage, friction will be significantly compromised on wet surfaces, and there is no meaningful dry window today or in the coming days.

Raven Crag has had a prolonged unsettled spell with 10.1mm on May 3rd and light precipitation on several recent days including today, and the forecast shows continued showery weather through the coming week. Although the south-facing volcanic rock dries relatively quickly, persistent cloud cover, high humidity, and intermittent drizzle today mean the surface is unlikely to offer reliable friction.

Scout Crag has had light rain overnight and early this morning, with further scattered showers forecast through the afternoon and evening; although there is a potentially dry window mid-morning to early afternoon, high humidity and persistent cloud cover will limit drying on the south-facing rock. The week ahead looks unsettled with rain on most days, so conditions are unlikely to improve soon.

Recent days have seen intermittent light rain (May 3rd 8.5mm, plus small amounts on the 5th, 6th, and today) with high humidity and overcast skies, preventing the polished slate from drying properly. Light showers are forecast from mid-afternoon today and rain continues into the coming days, making reliable dry conditions unlikely.
