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.

Do Not Climb

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.
