Default Penzance - It's all over

I agree with you Graham, Seen much windier days and nights. NON EVENT over
land anyway.

Winds dropped right off now. Maximum gust here just 47mph at around
17:00, not even a gale away from the immediate sea front. Sea quite
rough for a couple of hours. No rain. Big non event. In the last 15
years I have recorded 281 days with stronger gusts! The only place to
get anything remotely severe was Scilly.

Of note was the swell on the north coast this afternoon, which those of
you in the SW may have seen on Spotlight. 8'-10' at Newquay at times.
The report also mentioned the Cribbar at Fistral. For a pic of someone
riding a 20' Cribbar wave see

That's it, I promise to stay on topic & not mention surf again for a
while.
