Porth Ysgo
North Wales
Today
|
|||||
|
Despite gabbro's non-porous nature and fast drying, today's 100% humidity, active rainfall from mid-afternoon, and saturated conditions from recent days mean the rock will be wet and slippery. The coming week offers no meaningful dry window, with rain forecast every day through June 20th. |

Angel Bay
North Wales
Today
|
|||||
|
Angel Bay has seen frequent rain over the past two weeks (42.5mm in 28 days) with today bringing further showers from late afternoon, and humidity is high (83% daily average). The north-facing aspect and sheltered position mean drying is slow, and limestone will be greasy in these conditions — we recommend waiting for a more settled spell. |

Parisella's Cave
North Wales
Today
|
|||||
|
Despite the cave roof keeping direct rain off the rock, persistently high humidity (averaging 76% over the past week, with 84% today and rising to 90%+ this evening) will make the limestone very greasy. There is a narrow window mid-afternoon today where humidity dips to the mid-60s, but conditions are generally poor and deteriorating through the forecast period. |

Caseg Fraith
North Wales
Today
|
|||||
|
Caseg Fraith is currently saturated after a prolonged wet spell — nearly 160mm over the last 28 days with significant rain today (7.1mm) and no meaningful dry window ahead. The rock will be wet and slippery, and the entire five-day forecast shows continued rainfall with high humidity, making dry conditions extremely unlikely. |

Cromlech Boulders
North Wales
Today
|
|||||
|
The Cromlech Boulders are currently wet and conditions are unsuitable for climbing. A prolonged spell of heavy rain over the past two weeks (125.8mm in 28 days), rain today with more heavy rain forecast through the week, and near-saturated humidity levels mean the rhyolite surfaces will be slippery and dangerous. |

RAC Boulders
North Wales
Today
|
|||||
|
The RAC Boulders are currently wet and conditions are unsuitable for climbing. An extended period of heavy rainfall (over 40mm in the last 7 days, 160mm in the last 28 days), ongoing rain today with 8.7mm forecast, and near-100% humidity throughout mean the rock will be saturated on the surface with no drying opportunity. The forecast shows continuous rain for at least the next 5 days. |

Wavelength Boulders
North Wales
Today
|
|||||
|
The rock is wet today following 6.1mm of rain and will remain so, with heavy rain forecast through the next four days totalling nearly 90mm. Despite rhyolite's non-porous nature, the sustained saturation and near-100% humidity mean surfaces will not dry out meaningfully this week. |

Sheep Pen Boulders
North Wales
Today
|
|||||
|
Sheep Pen Boulders are currently wet and unsuitable for climbing. A prolonged spell of heavy rain over the past two weeks (110mm in 28 days), rain today, and a very wet forecast through to June 21st mean the rock will remain wet or damp with no meaningful drying window in sight. |
