Christmas Eve; mega dry and sunny, really good.
Boxing Day; dry, but cold.

Without the sun you'll have to make big efforts to stay warm. Looked like all routes on bottom tier were dry and there for the taking. Predator had ice on one foothold and the mono at the top. Undercuts dry on Unjustified.

Malham was absaloutly soaking today, pretty much everything was unclimbable on the catwalk and the upper tear looked worse. usual seapage lines but everything else had a soapy feel to it,

Loads of seepage everywhere  :wall: Free and Even Easier even had a couple of wet holds. Some routes workable if you're keen.  I've seen it worse, here's  hoping for some mid week sun.

wetter, some routes workable but most have wet holds on. Rained a lot this week and raining hard. Furbar is the technical term

Foobar?  Its originally a computing term for something that is inconsequential (although it may now have other meanings).

It should've been FUBAR - Fucked Up Beyond All Recognition, I think...

Would think it would be good to go by Sunday. Sunny all week. Just as long as that fog hasn't been circling around.

Enough seepage to spoil most routes but dry enough between the streaks. Zoolook looked do-able. Oak surprisingly dry except for the last section. Forgot to look at Predator. Overnite probably a bit two wet. Raindogs too wet at start. Conditions felt a bit glassy but that might have been me. Prognosis - could go either way.

Good idea if any one goes to work on Raindogs to take a spanner (adjustable?) as the hanger is jammed upside down.

Anyone been up to Malham this week. How's Rain dogs, GBH and Unjustified looking?

Or anyone know what's the weather been like in the area?

Steve does sporadically post details of conditions at different crags, you can follow him on twitter yourselves if you want.

I spoke to him at the Foundry last night and he was optimistic that it wouldnt take much to dry. Seems there are plenty in Sheffield syked to head up there midweek when it does dry up. If anybody wants to be included on the email round robins to sort out trips up then PM me your address.
