Any knowledge from today following Saturday nights snowfall?
Is it likely pretty wet after the melt today?

Have a window to get out Tues pm.
Thanks

Went to Burbage south today, none of the snow was melting so run off wasn't really a problem, I'll give you a quick run down of what's available :D

Boulders: Most of the problems on the brick, the sheep, puck/pock, dog sit/pound, the slab on useful block (good fun sliding down the back) Didn't look at everything probably a few others ok.

Edge: Leotard legend is dry, Zorev could probably be do able if you bring a long brush for the snow on top. Attitude inspector/Bad attitude are usually pretty reliable but didn't have a look. I imagine pebble mill problems would be dry. Generally ok conditions no melt/runoff.

Also Mossatrocity is dry.

Flatworld at Baslow was in good shape yesterday afternoon - flatworld, flatworld left-hand, hurry on sundown and fat world all dry. Not much snow on the tops of the boulders either, so shouldn't be affected by melt. Heroes looked damp and pretty much everything on the eaglestone was wet and had snow on top. Very pretty out there:

Anyone know if anything will be dry in the peak this weekend? I imagine stanage etc. could be a no-go but is anywhere else likely to be in nick? Cheers

Cratcliffe was fine today, or some of it anyway. Burbage West was also not too bad but very cold. I think most places will be good tomorrow.

Don't worry about the weather apparently you can still take the ticks at burbage without topping out

Ah ok. Sorry I am a useless boulderiser! There was definitely still snow up there but things were looking pretty dry and it was nice and windy so was drying up further. It was however baltic in the wind!

Jerry's had a big seepage line across it last Sunday so I doubt it's dry now.

Rivelin was mainly dry, the only wet stuff was the usual damp green bits, happy campus/cheeks normal runoff, and master kush was soaked.

Burb noth:  terrace/Jason's roof dry looking. Remergence and banana finger areas dry. Easy solos/war ups all dry.
West side story had a team on it so presumably dry as usual.

Curbar was dry but felt humid. Seemed like the dew was rising. Connies may not be optimal for the lanterns.

I dried master kush with a combination of tissue paper, fanning with my sit start pad and lying around whilst the sun helped. Definitely climbable along with people haze.

Any other reports from other crags appreciated!
