Don’t get too hopeful, I’m currently struggling to light a barbeque in the rain…

Strong early attempt at the calling of the BBQ there Nik!

Driveway and garage wall surprisingly dry looking!
Low cloud/mist currently. But could be an inversion and all clear up on the edges… looks thin enough to burn off either way. Will be at Longshaw for a run at 9, will add more info then…

Glossop has broken cloud with sun shining at the moment. Pavement outside my house has gone from 100% wet first thing, to now 90% wet with dry patches starting. Not hopeless I'd say.

Very murky/misty at surprise view. Can’t see Millstone from the road, Burbage south invisible as well. I’d suggest a leisurely breakfast with fingers crossed for cloud clearing…

Webcams and forecast now are making Roaches look more hopeful than the East perhaps https://www.jamesgphotography.co.uk/peak-district-webcams/

Sounds similar weather pattern to last weekend. Blue skies in Fulwood, but was murky on the Hathersage side until you were past Blackamoor/Ringinglow. I’d definitely be heading out (rather than wall) if I wasn’t running today. I’d be trying to find a Stocksbridge weather report and heading that way.

Inversion at the plantation apparently, drying out and climbable problems. My spy is known for being overly keen though. Going for a look myself shortly.

Was just about an inversion at Stanage about an hour ago. Clearing in Hathersage a bit now.

Looking good for the afternoon I’d say.

It ended up being good at Curbar, too hot if anything. I nearly called the lime it was so hot at some points. There were midges out and everything.

Good to hear it panned out dry enough for the Peak.

I ended up playing it safe and going to Roche Abbey in the end.

I'm guessing with how wet it's been it'll be a while before we see the lime call.

I wish to report that it's looking gorgeous at Longshaw right now, and since I continue to be coughing my lungs out, I hope that people who are not me will be able to get out and enjoy it.

I got out this morning and did Conquistador of the Useful (which ain't that good although glad to do it) and it was a beautiful day!

Any joy for this afternoon? I have a (rare) free afternoon and am still hoping it will “dry out” but webcams still looking pretty damp. Any locals who can put me out of my misery and I can have a few hrs in the Depot and sort out the street planters?

The roads are more or less dry in Hathersage now. I think you might find some dry rock but wouldn't guarantee it.

Pretty strong south-westerly up on the tops just now, so I’d expect the more exposed stuff will dry up. Rained a lot this morning, so anything sheltered is probably a write-off. I’d be chancing it late afternoon if I was free, but not sure I’d be driving any distance.

Cheers all, had a lovely afternoon out picking dry problems between the dampness. Also bumped into highrepute so nice to put a face to an avatar.

Certainly beat another afternoon at the Depot!
