Hodge Close has received significant rainfall over recent weeks (266mm in 28 days) with 7.5mm falling yesterday and light precipitation overnight into today; the sheltered quarry bowl will still be damp despite the non-porous slate. With only a single marginal dry day and more heavy rain forecast from tomorrow, conditions are not suitable for climbing on the polished slate surfaces.

Do Not Climb

Despite one dry day today following yesterday's 7.8mm of rain, the preceding period has been extremely wet (270.9mm in 28 days, 50.1mm in the last 7 days alone) and humidity remains high. Polished slate at Buckstone How will be treacherously greasy with residual surface moisture and seepage from saturated surrounding ground — we recommend waiting for a longer dry spell.
