Just got back from Wright's - despite a few days of intermittent heavy showers and some prolonged rain this morning it was mint - no seepage at all, humidity blown off by a cool breeze... enjoy

I walked the dogs down there yesterday, it was as wet as it gets. The churnet doesn't like humid, it draws the moisture out of its pores.

Was indeed thoroughly wet on Saturday. Looked good though, excited to get back when it's drier and at least I now know some of the approaches.

Was there yesterday and it was ridiculously humid. All cottage rock was dry as was wrights but it absolutely banged it down and it was apparently starting to run down the headwall at wrights. It was pretty windy though so may be fine.

Wrights rock seems to have escaped the worst of the weather. Mint conditions today!

Churnet was OK today, a few damp areas, but was suffering a lot from snow melt affecting the top holds above the lip at Gentlemen's . Didn't head up there but was told Wrights about the same.
Cheers

I would guess that it is proper wet. I live in Macc and its been torrential rain all day. Can't believe its much different just down the road.

Bits were dry yesterday but I live 10 mins away and it's been raining all last night and all day today. There might be a couple of the deeper roofs dry but there won't be much. I'd go elsewhere!

Anyone got any idea how wrights is holding out at the moment? Hoping to get out early on tomorrow and was thinking this may be a possibility.
