Default "Bill" and the UK



Will, what influence do you think that cool pool of water mid-Atlantic will
have as ex-hurricane Bill crosses it?


Personlly I think it'll get quite rough.

The track is completely wrong for good surf though. It's forecast to
be 9-12' in the far SW, which is quite big, but it looks like being
very messy & rippy. The big photogenic stuff comes when the
depressions (whether ex hurricanes or not) turn north west of Ireland)
so we get a big clean swell, but with a nice, gentle, warm, offshore &
sunny southerly. Not this time.

Nice morning though, it makes a change to wake up to blue sky &
sunshine. www.nci-stives.org/basiccamera.htm
