Does anyone know or would like to hazard a guess at what condition Brean is likely to be in this weekend?  I will be staying in Bristol on Sat night and would like to climb on Sunday so would like to know some places nearby that are likely to be dry (trad or sport).

Today is looking dry, as is tomorrow, so I'd guess that brean will be dry-ish with some streak lines and seepage on the RHS. Other options would be cheddar (likely to be some wet some dry, pick a crag near the top of the gorge), Wye or one of the Somerset quarries. And of course Avon should be ok, but sounds like you are after sport, of which there is a limited amount. Let us know if you decide where you are heading as we're planning to get out tomorrow as well.

Not sure about Brean, but we were down Cheddar on Wednesday and most crags were bone dry.

Any one know what conditions are like at the moment? Forecast looks good and thinking of heading there on Sunday.

Cheers

I have been every weekend for the past month and it has been fine.  Even one weekend where it rained heavily over night and the day before it dried back 11 am.

Not sure whether you are nearby, but it's been very wet today and quite a bit of rain over the past few days. I think brean will be wet and seeping tomorrow, though there's a slim chance one or two of the routes on the LHS will be climbable if the rain stops soon and the wind keeps blowing. I'll be heading to tca personally.
