Default [WR] Whistlefield: 'Flung spray and blown spume'.


Pretty wild here at the moment with blustery showers and a strong north
westerly. The wind's blowing straight down Loch Goil, which looks quite
rough with a lot of white water and the occasional 'water devil'. Very
little water activity on the sheltered Loch Long except where the wind
eddies round the point in the centre of the web cam pictures. Here, a
lot of blown spray flying roughly at right angles to the prevailing
wind.

Temperature, 10.3°C. The maximum was 13.7°C at 05:15z rising from a low
of 8.8°C at 20:15z yesterday and then falling to 9.4°C at 09:15z today.

Wind gusting to 45mph WNW.

Rain, 12.6mm since 00:00z after 29.2mm yesterday and 15.4mm on Tuesday.
Monthly total so far is 150.4mm and the annual total so far is 1321.8mm.
