Suspect that tells you all you need to know.

Today is cloudy and a bit damp. It has been generally wet lately so you'll need to stick to quick drying lines. Should be sunnier tomorrow, and really nice on Sunday. But obviously it'll be freezing cold, so rather you than me if you're thinking of doing multipitch trad climbing!

It's awful, anyone thinking of climbing there this weekend should definitely go somewhere else instead, leaving the crags clear for us, I mean for you.

Feels like temps of 8'c on Sunday taking into account the breeze, I imagine out of that light E-erly it will feel like considerably warmer!

It'll be lovely in the valley and far, far too cold for trad on the high crags.

Langdale now 

My car says it's 12 degrees now and is been dry for last 2 days, wind speed currently low, raven will be fine.

been low cloud mooching about all day so higher crags may be more challenging

Sun out tomorrow

I know it's not Langdale but Grey Crag would have been climable today.

In the sun from 8 and there was a temperature inversion so the summits were warmer than the valley as long as you were out of the wind.

Pillar Rock and Eagle Crag defo looked a bit chilly though

As you know already, conditions were perfect all weekend. Teams on Raven Crag, Pavey Ark, Gimmer, and Harrison Stickle. The moral is, take UKC advice with a pinch of salt!

We were climbing in t shirts on stickle barn crag yesterday, it was glorious!
