IS IT RAINING?
« on: May 07, 2015, 12:28:06 PM »
Anyone down at the pinns right now? Is it raining?

Radar looks like it's similar to what we're getting up here in scruz. Maybe my plans to play hookey tomorrow will get rained out ;(

Glad it is raining, nonetheless...

Oh bummer - two sources called it at 80% chance of rain and into the night.  Sorry Charlie.

But - ya know...this little spit wouldn't stop The Cooks from going!   >:D

At least it'll be dry by Sunday!    ;D

Raining here in Sunnyvale.

But it never rains at the Pinnacles.

We're a long way from Pinns up here, but it is now snowing (not sticking though). March is finally here.

And this makes me believe that perhaps the Cooks are up here too (without dropping in to say hello!?). Those two have a unique ability to bring snow here when they visit. They've also been strangely quiet on this site for a while.

It's definitely raining. We received a good amount in Monterey today. Light but consistent. I suspect similar was seen out there. The winds look like they will be blowing pretty good and Sunday is looking like a stellar day for climbing. I'm trying to rope Gavin into climbing some Machete routes with me. Hoping to fill my last day as a 26 year old with some mud n crud.

Only .05" increase on the in park gauge so far - I suspect there will be more tonight.
Doesn't matter since I couldn't get anyone to commit to rebolting with me tomorrow.

You were going to re-bolt while you are up here?

I appreciate it Kyle.
Next Friday is a possibility.
I will have more free time when my day classes are over - after next week.

Looks like a whopping tenth of an inch - nothing since midnight.

Papers to grade today - climb with the kid and better half tomorrow - then place some shiny metal bits with nelkins Sunday :)

It did rain yesterday and last night... As JC said, "only" a tenth on an inch, but we'll take what we can get. I was up in the High Peaks while the rain came down, and we even had a bit of thunder and lightning. The temp only got up to 57 degrees yesterday!

Today the rain has passed, but the high temp is around 70 degrees at most. Not your typical May day here!

70 would be perfect! We are planning to go to the East side on Sunday.

Inch by inch, I will get there.

I don't know a thing about bolting, but I know lots about free time during the week. Contact info is coming via pm (just in case you find yourself in a similar predicament again...)

Eastside Chimney Sweep area and Bear gulch Saturday. Anyone in that area tomorrow? Jim, if you are checking the forum, are you coming any time in May?

It's raining here, I'm out. Will get ahead on paperwork and hit the gym in the afternoon.
