no rain on the Pinns gauge yet

NWS

Tonight

A 30 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms, mainly after 11pm. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 55. Northwest wind 5 to 8 mph becoming calm after midnight.


Friday

Mostly sunny, with a high near 84. Calm wind becoming west 5 to 8 mph in the afternoon.

High today was only 84 at 3:30 - amazingly cool considering temps the last few times out.

Never rains @ the Pinns, never.

But when it does, there sure are a lot of waterfalls.

Was raining here in Sunny Sunnyvale.



I'm not worthy.

Looks good for this weekend though

You're easy to scare off! :)
The rain gauge showed 1/100th of an inch this morning at 2:30am.
You likely missed a perfect day with only a high of 83 predicted.
I thought about going alone to get some work done but decided to slack instead.

I got that but not sure anyone else will.

Noal and I are going to work on The Frog and it sounds like the chicks are headed to Hawkins.

High today was only 89. Might be a little warmer the next couple days but we can take it - right gang? :)

I got it too. In fact, I can probably predict who's going to sing (and in what tone), on which pitch, at what time.

The chicks are going to the Tuff Dome area where there's all kinds of different and fun routes to lead ranging from 5.2 to 5.7 - several with multiple stars :)

Yes - but now it's open and is a new and improved version.
5.4 is rebolted + 3 cool new routes.
I need to get back up there and do some more work :)

The chicks enjoyed a fun day on the rocks.  Laura and Deb both got in several new leads and I got in one new one - Nine Hundred For the Lead.  Enjoyed leading it!

Thanks Kathy, fun area. Good chickin and chattin and climbing. Hopefully the birds weren't offended by what they had to overhear.

Will have to get back up there again, now that it's open season!

All I managed was to get very dirty and watch Aaron do the work.
