Default West Cornwall, More severe & MUCH more exciting today!

MUCH more exciting today. 80mph gusts at Lands End, 75mph at St Ives, 50mph in Penzance. Swell 7-8m at Sevenstones, still not that large (11m has a 5 year return period - 8m occurs a few times each year) but it is VERY VERY rough.


Worth a watch now, high tide around 17:30, though at 15:30 the harbour's already full. All boats in the car park.

Imagine having to launch the lifeboat in these conditions.

Looks very impressive. Even more impressive is the Plusnet Broadband at
£5.99 a month!
