Given the biblical rain today and that there is more forecast for first thing in the morning, will Brean be dry tomorrow afternoon?

If not, where else in the SW might be? Keen for trad E2 - E5 or sport in the 7s.

Swanage should be ok, the rain slid to the north until mid afternoon so not a huge amount of rain. Given a bit of sun and the wind forecast for tomorrow things should be dry pretty quickly. We have had a very dry summer here so there will be no seepage.

Cheers Scott.

Swanage is a 3 hr trek from where I am in west Devon though and I've promised the Mrs to not be back too late for a change!

Realistically I need to choose from Devon, Cornwall & Avon.

I've sat in the national trust cafe in a torrential downpour after driving up from London hoping the legendary micro-climate would prevail, and been climbing an hour after it stopped.

Brean is the best bet for a quick drying crag in these parts. The left side of the Boulder cove doesn't seep and flash dries if there is a breeze.
