Take a look at http://magicseaweed.com/UK-Ireland-MSW-Surf-Charts/1/ and go forward 5 or 6 days to next Tues/Weds. A large area of the N Atlantic with a swell of around 50' or so. A way off yet, but a photo opportunity beckons.

More normal track than last year. when it repeatedly powered into Cornwall. Even so a very powerful 20' 17sec swell forecast for Sennen. Probably blown out, just hope for a lull at some point to see the waves break properly.

Affects the north coast to Woolocombe, but the swell direction means little travels up the channel east of the Lizard.

Yes, that cool NW flow that I talked about a couple of days ago, appears to be wanting to establish itself.
