I was there yesterday.  Jerry's traverse all dry.  Beginners wall had quite a few wet holds.  Paint It Black looked fairly dry but with a couple of small wet streaks, the problems on the wall to the left looked dry on the whole.
HTH.

did yoot's maneuver today, mint climb all dry and clean now, also cleaned up giant haystacks, 7c+ and 8b if you've not heard of them, don't expect push overs there both hard as nails, thought yoot's maneuver might even be 8a, but maybe i'm just weak  :weakbench:

Anyway, get on them, there ***!

also is there anyway to change the thread title to just "Blackwell dale" since everyone just posts the conditions on this thread anyway

How was Griff's looking Haydn?

Speaking to some folk at the crag no-one talks about yesterday, and they said large parts of BWD (inc Ovine/Bovine etc..) were still pretty wet...

Thats a bit of a 'overheard a bloke at the pub, who's auntys dog had been' etc... report... soz.

Looked to be wet tonight as I drove past on my way to the Tor... Big wet streak down it. Were a few folk parked there when I drive back so you might get an accurate connies report later!

Anyone know what Jerry's was like last night? Thinking of going this pm but concerned about potential goppage.

Monkey boy reported that griffs was soaked yesterday on the facebook group. Jerry's is usually a safer bet though isn't it?

 Yes Jerry's is typically the first to dry... But it has rained in Buxton a fair bit today (roads are still wet) and it's warm out so a high chance of condensation

it probably has limited relevance, but today Rubicon was dryer than a very dry thing, that had been dry for a very long time.

I'd be interested to know if anyone checks out PiB area this evening, specifically the Working 9-5 holds. Gopptastic or surprisingly dry?

Beginners wall was utterly condensed on Tuesday like a hose pipe had been turned on. Raven same apparently. Rubicon traverses unclimbable but not so wet but Kudos wall was fine though. Anything likely to be climeable today?
