any body got the local take on the incoming weather around Moab?
|
It's my birthday weekend and me and my friends were planning an epic climbing/rope siwingin' adventure around but we are real worried about the weather I was hoping someone local could give me their take particularly for potters road and corona arch we were planning on leaving fri morning and staying through sun |
|
does noaa.gov no longer work? |
|
yer gonna die |
|
looks like high % chance for rain/snow.... |
|
Big powerful system. It WILL rain and as has been discussed many times, sandstone needs to dry out after it gets wet. Unfortunately looks to be statewide. |

Hey thanks for the advice we'll be climbing all the classics at wallstreet wall should be fine as as long as we dont place any small gear! |

hmmmmm well we were thinking of a backup plan. anyone got the beta on some awesome slot canyons in the area? we'd like to rap in this afternoon if possible! |
|
Perfect plan B, slot canyoning in the rain. |
|
wow i think he's serious |
|
ironically his avatar pic is of him climbing sandstone in the rain...still a troll |
|
So since everyone seems to think these flash flood things are a risk (dont they only occur on the full moon anyway?) what sort of PFD should I bring to help protect myself? |
|
If you want to keep the troll going, you should quickly change PFD to Life Preserver. Much more believable. |
|
yep anyway a sincere thank you to those who responded to my original query. to everyone else thanks for having some fun on a bummer rain out day! |
|
And if anyone's down we'll be going swift water snorkeling in the upper animas tomorrow afternoon |
