Title: Northumberland Weather/Seepage Info'.
Post by: CJDavies on April 01, 2015, 10:21:04 am

Okay - I need some real time weather info'. I'm heading to Bowden'ish area tomorrow - does anyone have any idea if the weather is looking okay, or which other areas have a chance of being dry? Local knowledge needed.

I'm in Newcastle until midday, then driving up. Keen for any area that might be dry, as long as the lines are classy. Maybe closer to Newcastle if it looks dodgy? Cheers.

Rain radar on the met office web site is a good place to start

In newcastle: heavy hail showers and windy yesterday, but fine/quite windy so far today. Heading to Alnwick for the afternoon so will post what the weathers doing further north. Standard not-great weather advice is to try Kyloe in. Its normally okay after rain, especially if its windy.

Cheers Ben.  I'm in Newcastle and its dry.  Thanks for the heads up.

Muesli - local knowledge is NOT a web based weather report.

Cheers guys.  It was really nice, although very warm out of the wind.  Good day.

Were you the pair who arrived when we were checking out the wall repairs ?

Just wondering if the wallers cleared up after them.

Anyone know if any crags will be dry tomorrow and Friday?
