Hello. heading up to North Wales this weekend. Just wondering how dry the mountain crags are? Any chance of things on Cloggy being dry? Guessing the crags in the pass will be ok? Not sure how much rain there's been there lately...

Cheers for any info.

The pass was pretty well bone dry on Thursday. Cloggy will be chilly!

Sure about that? We had a massive downpour in Caernarfon around lunchtime thursday. It has been mostly dry for a few weeks though so most things should dry quickly. Agree that it will be cold high up though.

I drove down to Betys y coed on Thursday with heavy rain most of the time easing to drizzle by the evening. Out today to do Oxine on Wenallt which was bone dry all the way much to my surprise as it is a low lying crag. Hope this is of some help.
