Yeah, it's generally fine if you stay on the left

Pretty bad all over yesterday, can see it getting worse with the coming rain. Also found a brush if anyone has dropped one? Let me know!

Any chance it will be dry for Friday and Saturday? Especially the Boy Racer area.

Boy racer was climbed last weekend. Like most things there it was wet but dryable with a towel and lots of chalk.

Looks like Dinas is going to be out for a loooong time after all this rain!
Think Eliot reconed it might be out till April!

Was down Dinas yesterday.. Kennelgarth wall is dry as far a Fat Cat Roof,, then things become wet. Up top all problems are dry or dry able. Did Jet Blue V9 yesterday and boy racer was a little damp but climbable.

As of Wednesday night, Fat Cat was unclimbably soaked (including the headwall above it) but the left hand side looked a bit better. The main crag bouldering all looked pretty dry/easily dryable
Forecast was for rain today though so that may now be out of date already.

Was there yesterday - main crag AND kennelgarth wall. All dry at Main Crag and looks like it is still drying out so good to go for the rest of the week. Kennelgarth wall was mostly dry, all on the lefthand side bone dry, Fat Cat Roof holds and anything on the right is a touch damp but dryable with towles/tissue and still drying out. Nows the time to go

It's not rained since james' post above and was pretty dry then - think you'll be fine.

Everything is prime. Likely to stay that way for the remainder of the week. No rain forecast.

Anyone been down today - has it escaped the worst or is it starting to seep?
Have unfinished business before term starts next week but don't fancy a 6 hour round trip if it's going to be wet...

Ok last time I'll ask for a while (promise)
Tomorrow is my absolute last chance to get down for a long while and it looks like it won't rain...
No point doing the big round trip if it's seeping though
If anyone's down or around today then a report would be massively appreciated

Can't speak for as far west as merthyr, but i live on edge of bristol channel, not too far away from second severn crossing
was mixture of rain and mizzle all day yesterday here, often worse over valleys than here.
On the plus side it is trying to brighten up now,with a breeze, but wouldn't put it past it to rain again.
Don't know what dinas is like, seepage, drying time etc, but i would be reluctant to do a 6 hour round trip this way today, unless you have back up venues in mind (forest of Dean sandstone has some big overhangs usually find something dry)

Thursday was the last time I was there, it was bone dry. Its rained pretty consistently the last few days. I would imagine it's wet by now. Main crag will probably will be dry though.

Hmmm thanks guys, looks like I'll have to be patient and wait for the end of term.
Thanks again....

Thursday was a bit seepy in places. The rail under Honey pot was all wet, fat cat holds too, right side starting to seep. Could be worse at the moment as there was a lot of rain on Thursday. Main crag was much drier. However, with nice weather today Kennelgarth could be drying out

Thanks for the post (although we'd left before you replied)!
It was pretty dry, the right hand side was seeping a bit but the rest was OK. Bit warm for my liking but had a good day.

There were lots of people there on Sunday/Monday, think it was dry. The trackside crags were bone dry then.
