Almscliff Crag
Yorkshire
Today
|
|||||
|
Almscliff has had four consecutive dry days since the heavy 24.5mm deluge on May 3rd, with moderate temperatures and reasonable wind, but the exposed hilltop S/W aspect has aided drying. The rock surface should be largely dry on south-facing sections, but internal moisture from that significant rainfall event may linger — a visual and tactile check on arrival is essential before committing to climb. |

Ilkley (Cow and Calf)
Yorkshire
Today
|
|||||
|
Despite a few dry days earlier this week, heavy rain on May 3rd (17.1mm) followed by light rain on May 4th and today (May 7th), combined with high average humidity (78%), means the gritstone is unlikely to be fully dry internally. With 11.4mm of rain forecast tomorrow, conditions are set to deteriorate further. |

Brimham Rocks
Yorkshire
Today
|
|||||
|
The heavy 27.7mm rainfall on May 3rd was followed by only a few days of modest drying conditions, with light precipitation on May 4th and today (May 7th), and the rock is very likely still holding significant internal moisture. With further rain forecast over the next several days, conditions are not suitable for climbing on gritstone. |
