Most stuff from Predator leftwards was dry enough to at least work, some dampness on the New Dawn bulge. Mid Ledge to the Oak a bit worse, but did dry back a bit. Magnetic to  Something Stupid mostly ok, then some dampness across to Wasted Youth, then maostly dry.

Upstairs looked mostly ok, but with some patches of dampness.

Mostly cloudy but no rain. Warm enough to work stuff at least.

Good nick today, sunny early on, with tropical temperatures and good rock conditions.

Lots of stuff dry, in fact most of the left hand side is fully dry and much of the catwalk too.

Lots of drips on the right hand side and falling ice for much of the morning!

Should be a primo March if we dont have much rain, lots already dry, ready for slightly warmer redpointing temps!!  :)

Pretty baltic today, good working temps though and felt great on the rock.

Dried back since saturday too, the Groove nearly dry and Austrian looking drier than saturday (undercut at start looked dry), Magnetic tufa is still wet....

Tomorrow looks best forecast but I'm going Sunday. At least the wind won't be blowing in.

Anyone going tomorrow ? Would be good to know what's dry if you are.

Right, fair bit wetter today, Predator and Zoolook workable, most of other routes on teh left quite wet. Mid Ledge maybe doable, overnite doable, rest rightwards pretty much dry......

Groover very wet from something stupid belay up.....lots of drips from above all day, but great nick on the dry rock and not too cold....in fact I'd almost go as far as 'perfect' Malham conditions if your chosen route was dry  :)

there were no birds there the other day, not sure if this is because of any ban?

Cold today. Most stuff wet. Raindogs OK apart from starting holds and routes to right mainly dry to Something Stupid. Upstairs Obsession / NAT looked do-able and Main O/Hang was dry. Possibly others too.

Most stuff all dry today, apart from: bit damp on New Dawn traverse, Magnetic footholds on tufa, top of the Maximum, start of the Groove.....

Should be all dry by the weekend.......  :)

Most stuff downstairs dry. Some residual dampness around New Dawn and one or two spots elsewhere. Upstairs looked bone.

I would guess most stuff is dry by now, including the roofs. Which route/roof in particular?
