20.2mm overnight here, and windy. Never more than a F5-6 at my site, the only 'true' gale being on some cliff top locations. Land's End & St Ives both reached F8 with gusts to around 60mph.

The most exposed sites away from windward coasts peaked around F6-7 with maximum gusts near 50mph (E.g. Culdrose). Wind speeds generally decreasing eastwards. To the west Scilly was stormy, the airport reached F9.

No powerful swell, a short, weak, messy 10 seconds period, just rough. There is a big swell forecast to dive to the SW of Ireland on Weds, http://magicseaweed.com/UK-Ireland-M...hartType=PERPW could give a longer period wave in Cornwall, and with an offshore wind on the north coast, could be surfable. Predicted to be 10-14' now at Sennen, a lot bigger than currently. http://magicseaweed.com/Sennen-Surf-Report/4/ May be photogenic.

Lots of oar weed in the harbour, as there always is after the 1st autumn blow. http://www.sennen-cove.com/harbourcam.htm
