Title: Peak conditions Tomorrow, Saturday 19th
Post by: J.Kydd on November 18, 2016, 10:28:38 am
Few of us south westerners were planning a day trip to the peak tomorrow, but overnight weather now seams to have us twitching.

What/where are our chances of the hefty drive being worth it? Anyone local know how much snow is likely to fall overnight - and will it be so much that everything is just soaked all day tomorrow?

Im going to head out in a minute to check out Rubicon and X and maybe the Tor.

Its snowing here in Sheffield at the minute and if you take a look here  https://twitter.com/northlees/status/797347981959761920/video/1 its pretty grim on the Eastern Edges. Looks like a nice day tomorrow but anything with run off or out of the sun will be rubbish

Not sure what to suggest.

Heavy snow in Buxton this morning and a lot of rain recently id save the trip if I were you Shark!

I'm heading out tomoz, should be dry grit in a good condition in the afternoon as long as it exposed... happy hunting

Apparently a car has overturned on the Snake this morning.

Crag X was dry though top bulges starting to seep. Didn't have time to pop into Rubicon. Guess it would have been good too. Drizzling a bit on way back.

Who knows about tomorrow but would guess some lime will be good

The grit was looking promising at last light. Very little snow left, lower/ sunnier grit edges dry. Depends what happens tonight, I'm guessing a frost then a little snow.
