The RAC Boulders have had three excellent dry days (Aug 11–13) with warm temperatures up to 29°C, which should have thoroughly dried the rock surface after the rain on Aug 9–10. However, today (Aug 14) shows 0.1mm precipitation and high humidity (89%), introducing slight uncertainty about current surface conditions.
Based on weather conditions only — does not cover bird nesting restrictions or other access issues.
