How sure
Today
Main face, Map Wall and Go Wall: ICON is up to 3 points higher than the other two at 09:00. This touches the best window.
Across the crag
- Rock now
- Damp. 0.3 mm of rain in 24 hours, 0.7 mm in 72.
- Low water
- Today 02:10, 14:15. Tomorrow 03:30, 15:33.
- Sea
- 1.2 m from the E, 6 s wind sea. Up to 1.3 m today.
- Weather
- Cullen and Portsoy point, shared along this stretch. Coast counted as facing N.
Met Office figures, to 05:00.
Open a wall for its strips, reasons and week. Scores are today, then tomorrow.

Today, Wed 21
Not climbable today. Best 09:00 to 12:00.
100000000
Tomorrow, Thu 22
Climbable from 15:00. Best 14:00 to 17:00.
001223443
Why
Even the best window is held back by rain and humid air (94% humidity).
What shapes this wall
- Sun
- Does not reach the face today.
- Shelter
- Back of a bay. Wind counted at half unless it blows onto the face. Shelter does not slow drying.
- Sea
- Comes from behind the face, counted at 40%: 0.5 m at the wall.
- Tide
- Grip pulls the rock temperature harder towards the sea's, and counts spray from a 2 m sea rather than 2.5 m.
- Seepage
- None noted.
- Birds
- Nesting on parts: two or so nests on the routes and kittiwake debris below; a gull may nest on top. April to July, months not confirmed.

Grip is the blend of the three models. The points column shows the Met Office figures (the next model's where it does not reach), factors at zero left out. Wet risk is how many models have the rock wet, foggy or raining.
