Wow, what a difference to yesterday, which was a pleasant day on the
tip of Cornwall. The MetO site showed Camborne as the sunniest place in the SW, and Culdrose as the warmest in the UK (13.2C) In fact it reached 14.4C in Penzance sunny spells, probably warmer still on west facing LIzard coves. This made it the 3rd warmest day of April, which says a lot about the coolness of of the month, my 1st ever April to fail to reach 15C. Today @ 09:00 it was 6.0C with a F6-7 NE wind & heavy rain. It's already gusted to 57kn at St. Ives, mean speed of 40mph (F8) at Culdrose. Luckily, for St. Ives in particularly, small tides. It is thoroughly awful out there. Graham Penzance |

Only if I can sail there on the Scillonian :-) -- MCC It actually went out last Wednesday which amazed me, as the sea was bigger than it was this morning. I think it's because they have so many gigs to get over in time for next week ends world championships. http://worldgigs.co.uk/ I joined the crowed watching it as the bow ploughed into the waves before lifting way out of the water, and that was just the far side of Mousehole harbour., God knows (assuming you're religious) what it was like passing Sevenstones. Then the interest passed to the cars left on the pier overnight, nicely bent by morning by the sheer weight of the water coming over. All offshore in the Bay currently, but it may become interesting when the wind turns SE & brings the swell in. Graham Penzance |
