Been a couple of nice clear days in South Yorkshire the last couple of days.  How have things further north been and on the back of this is Caley likely to be dry and worth a visit this weekend?

Forecast looks good, but I know its North facing.

Go check it out, Almscliff is always there as plan b.

[andyd]

I haven't been but it hasn't rained since Tuesday as far as I can remember. I would imagine it's dry but bring a brush stick as it hasn't had much attention over the last few weeks.

@andyd : Cheers for the insight.

@SA Chris : Almscliff was plan B from the start.

We were there yesterday. The crag was in amazing condition, brisk NW winds helped. Most things were dry and clean - a couple of things still a bit soggy on top but loads to go at. Only went to the Ben's Groove area at Roadside but it was similar, unless it rains before the weekend I doubt you'd end up bailing to the cliff.

\o/ Great cheers sjw

Still dry (no rain last night). It was raining at Bolton Abbey further up the Wharf river so Barden venues will take a while to dry out if anyone is considering them

Had a lovely day at Caley thanks for the conditions reports andyd & sjw.

Now who was it who recognised me? Sorry fort not being overly chatty.

[Footwork]

No problem and glad to hear it. We popped up to the crag again today and it was very still and moist so you definitely picked the right day to go!

Looks mint out this morning. Dry out. Heavy ish frost but no useful wind. Avoid it til midday I reckon

[groovedog]

Any knowledge on conditions for Caley this weekend?

[andyd]

Mostly mint today

[Footwork]

no

I did end up going in the end. The mist had lifted but had left some rather active green stuff all over Otley wall and Psycho. It was pretty dry otherwise and was just getting greasy again when it got dark.

I'll be heading out again on Tues I think Joe, it's a great place! If it stays dry on monday then it should be fine.

[benj_d]

Is it worth a trip there tomorrow? Forecast seems to have changed slightly.

[SEDur]

In the persistent wind (of Thursday), how long do you think it will take the crag to dry?

Come to visit the girlfriends family for a few days, and desperate to get some bouldering done while I am here, but the weather looks against me.

[Stubbs]

Looks set to piss down all day today and tomorrow pretty much up until midnight Thursday. Cloudy and 90% humidity Thursday, I don't think Caley will dry!
