WB Climbing Forecast #1 - 10/7/09

WHERE ARE WE GOING?:
Great Barrington Saturday, Gunks possibly Monday.

WEATHER FORECAST:
Rain all day friday till VERY early on Saturday (2AM).
Winds supposed to pick up all day Saturday reaching a high of 13 MPH.
Temperatures are staying relative low all day (50-60), and by 2PM it's supposed to be clear.
Sunday would be better, but rides are an issue on Sunday.

Check it.

EDIT:
there is hope!
CHECK IT.

SHOULD WE CLIMB?:
G.B. has a reputation for being okay to climb when it rains, but it depends on how much rain the area receives on Friday. The high winds and sun will help the drying process, depending on how early rain stops. I would say if there is a low amount of precipitation, and it ends before 5AM Saturday, G.B. would be great to climb in.
Sunday would be better, but I think Saturday would be a good climbing day.

CONCLUSION:
IF the stars align I'll give G.B. a 75% chance of AWESOME climbing Saturday and 90% chance on Sunday.
