On Saturday evening the LHS was wet but all else was dry as far as I could see, I didn't actually climb anything though (apart form some holds on weedkiller which was certainly all dry).

Some of the pockets on pb were a tad greasy early yesterday, and the usual 1 foothold was wet. Should b fine today.

Was there today, but didn't look at that end. Two big wet streaks down that end. I'd be surprised if nothing's come through. Apparently there was 42mm of rain in Buxton yesterday!

Really good nick generally today, although Mecca undercling/pocket soggy again.

As of this evening weedkiller and the surrounding area wet, although ben's roof looked dry.
Pinches wall and a few things to the right of it were dry, but powerband and rightwards was soaking.

only dry looking routes are those around Toilet area
Pinches wall still ok but only the problem dry is ben's and even that has wet footholds and the odd spoogy hold.

As of last night pinchesand routes around sardine ok but that's your lot. Now wetter than it was in winter/spring. Wanker summer than even any of the recent run of wank summers.

 :-\ The last two summers were dry by UK standards. Both Cornice summers, which happen less than 50% of the time in my experience.

It's hard to accept but it's true - I suppose the last 2 summers just lulled us into a felse sense of security..... IIRC pre the summer of 2010 the cornice hadn't been fully dry since 2005ish  :shrug:

I am surprised by the left-hand side of the Tor though as I'm pretty sure that it's usually dry by now (even in the shit years).

I'll add that my memory's a bit shit so could be talking complete bollocks.

:D

Tin of rightwards to A Little Extra all dry. A few of the routes on the right looked dry. Mecca undercut was wet, Chimes looked okay though. Sorry that's a bit vague but its definately drying off a bit :)

Much improved again this morning, nice breeze blowing across.  Middle fine, lots of stuff on right seems ok and stuff in cave much drier although still the odd spoogey hold here and there. 
Looks like you need to get in there before Thursday...
