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. |

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
Northumberland
Today
|
|||||
|
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. |

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. |

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
Northumberland
Today
|
|||||
|
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. |

Corby's Crag
Northumberland
Today
|
|||||
|
Corby's Crag is currently unsuitable for climbing due to repeated recent rainfall on already-saturated Fell Sandstone, with more rain forecast today and heavy rain (16.6mm) expected tomorrow. The sheltered, below-road-level position means moisture from the last week's accumulation (16.4mm in 7 days) has had almost no opportunity to clear, and conditions will only worsen over the coming days. |
