Default West Cornwall warm pool

The warm pool of water, which has been off the tip of Cornwall for some time now http://old.wetterzentrale.de/pics/Reursst.gif seems to be surviving the more changeable weather. SST around 18C from Land's End to Scilly, despite a good deal of mixing a in a 5' choppy swell.

Despite fairly brief sunny intervals today, often bright rather than sunny, the water just off the Battery Rocks in Penzance was around 19C, not far below today's maximum air temperature of 20.3C. A cooler night than for some time last night, with a minimum of 11.6C, though it was back to 18C by 09:00.

There has been a bit of rain recently, a few sharp bursts yesterday morning, and a couple of very light showers today. In fact 7.1mm has fallen in the 96 hours to 09:00 today, just as the lawn turned brown.

Go to http://www.scillyman.co.uk/Lowertown_Cam.html & click on the 24 hour time lapse, for a good idea of the mainly Sc cloudscapes of late, with just a few showers in some embedded Cb.


If wet sheep had teeth it might be worth asking Stooopid about it. But they don't and it isn't

Has anyone with their wits about them considered this:

Don't all think at once you might look and sound like sheep.
