Pissing it down in Sheffield, is it safe to presume it is in the peak too? Anyone been local to the Tor today and got weather update?  :please:

I don't know enough about Tor conditions, but it's been raining in Sheffield for the last three days. Constantly. Cofe's post related to conditions on the first day of rain. Yesterday, I couldn't find anyone who was willing to chance it. Today, it's still raining. It's supposed to rain tomorrow too...

I was out at the Tor this morning and early afternoon and there is still quite a lot of dry rock. Indecent and the routes in its vicinity are soaking. To the right everything is dry until around The Toilet which has some damp holds. Pinches Wall is dry but further right looks very wet.

Pretty much everything was climbable today - but some holds on powerband very slightly greasy/damp.

If anyone is going down today a preweekend report would be much appreciated, to see if it's worth the drive down or not.

was pretty much dry as a boner last night. the tree you sit in at the right hand end when you've having a rest was wet though but to be fair you could sit on a pad or take a folding chair.

A  few wet streaks down some of the routes left of weedkiller, all others ok. Bouldering pretty dry as considering.
