Well, conditions were more extreme than I expected. For the 1st time ever I had to beat a retreat from the harbour car park. The spray from the waves coming over the headland was such it wasn't so much like being under a waterfall, as being hit be repeated walls of water. The big sets were way 30', and the wind was still gale force

Still - some pics, mainly from a somewhat more sensible spot, taken at half tide! http://www.easterling.freeserve.co.uk/stormfeb.html My favourite is the top photo of the breakwater - it is a big structure, so how high is that wave approaching it!

Well worth getting absolutely soaked for.
