Cloudy all day yesterday, with a maximum of 11.3C, the lowest max of the autumn by a full degree. Patchy rain from noon, gradually becoming more persistent with an increasing easterly wind.
A wet & windy night, 12.3mm of rain in the 24 hours to 09:00 today, when it was still raining. Gusting 50mph at Lands End, so the rain is horizontal. Also very big tides. Luckily the pressure is not low, and there's not a big swell, but it is very rough & anywhere east facing is catching it. Tides around 0.2m above the already very high astronomical tide. Newlyn real time data https://www.ntslf.org/data/realtime?port=Newlyn We've got a good 36 hours of this to go, I think I'll hibernate. It's not as if it's exciting, just grim. Graham Penzance |

Graham Penzance Topping a F9 at times at Gwennap Head. At 13:10 Mean speed 50mph, gusting 66mph. Walk along the prom anyone? https://www.camsecure.co.uk/penzance_promenade.html It really is grim Graham Penzance |

Graham Penzance 20mm of rain for the event so far in Penzance & Bosullow, Gusts to well over 60mph at Gwennap Head where it reached F9. A biggish swell now coming from an unusual direction into normally sheltered spots. As a result flooding in Falmouth (Swanpool area) & other spots (some overtopping at St Ives at high tide. It has been pretty bad, strongest wind in Penzance since before summer. F8 on Scilly since 08:00. So gale, heavy rain, flooding from the sea, no weather warning. (England not affected?)

Still raining, 48 hours now with very few breaks. At least its no longer a gale & milder. Yesterday saw the strongest winds sincelast winter at my station.
Some issues on the last 2 high tides at anywhere facing east. Flooding on the Liskeard to Looe line, Scilly basically cut off etc. Freight ship spent the night stuck on st Marys, where it was a F8 for 12 hours. At least its passed the grim phase and edged into interesting/exciting! Graham Penzance |

'cut off' definition an act of stopping or interrupting the supply of something. Graham |
