Hey, I'm looking to climb on Friday and the weather calls for 30% rain near Collingwood area. Although, sunny/partly cloudy in toronto.
That being said, where's the best place to go (top roping) after a rainfall on the previous night? (in southern ontario).
Thanks,

Rattlesnake Point should be good for TRing, it is south facing and in the sun all day long, should dry up pretty quickly.

I'd also like to point out that a 30% chance of rain means pretty much nothing. Weather in S.Ontario is greatly effected by the great lakes and, especially with hot weather, small cells of storms will often roll in off of them. Often these cells are short lived too (not always though).
My suggestion: Assume it's not going to rain unless you see the weather report get far worse, or at least until you see a more detailed weather report closer to Friday.

Alright cool. I'm bringing some newbs and on-lookers, but it'd be cool to meet up and maybe do some real climbing at another time.
Hopefully I'll be there..
(Now I'll have to ask each climber if they're Binrat) lol
