They'll be keeping their fingers crossed for a good Easter.
Meanwhile, back in Cornwall a reasonable day with just a couple of brief showers & sunny spells, good visibility and much calmer sea conditions - especially on the south coast. Swell down to 6-8' even out at Sevenstones.
Around Marazion piles of weed washed up after the 1st big sea of the winter.

I think 1989 was possibly worse? A dominant European high left Scotland very mild, a conveyor belt of rain off the Atlantic went on for weeks though I think the weather finally turned at the end of March around Easter. Many Alpine resorts were decimated that year, too, and I think it hastened the development of artificial snow-making.

So all this bull**** comes about due to fine, cold weather and everyone goes kerplonk. Because?
Because people wouldn't go to the expense of luxury exotic holidays if they only had to wear jeans and jerseys to ride cardboard boxes down the local hill?
