Rain was like stair rods at times yesterday evening and short-lived frequent
showers today has given us a total of 33.1 mm.

Total for month so far 36.0 mm.

Still bucketing down outside from yet another sharp shower.

Will,

Most of yesterdays showers seemed to run up the spine of Cornwall. It was a
pleasant enough day here, if breezy.

Good sunny periods today, after early showers. We've had most of our rain
overnight, which is typical for us. Nothing like the amount you've had
though, just 2.9mm in the 24hours ending 09:00 this morning.

Hope to go surfing tomorrow, if the wind dies down a bit and it becomes
cleaner.

Graham, how accurate do you find the surfing forecast on BBC Southwest
as given by David Braine, and previously by Craig Rich?
Just curious to find out if anyone actually uses them.

To be honest, I think they were better when Craig did them.
I also think that the sea temperatures were updated better then as well.

For actual conditions I think
http://www.destination-cornwall.co.u...n-Cornwall.htm or the
excellent Sennen Cove web-site www.sennen-cove.com/surf.htm are as useful as
any.

Graham
