Rough, rough, rough and more to come!



Perched on top of the hill, in an adjoining village, I have glorious views of the nearest town with its long promenade, art deco bathing pool, St Michaels Mount and our villages harbour.



The wind is blowing a hooley, the sea is full of white horses. It's currently crashing over the promenade and bathing pool. Not sure when high tide is but no doubt the promenade will be closed for peoples safety.

I have just spent the last half hour watching a freight ship for the Isles of Scilly dock in our village harbour. It took considerable skill to get the ship through the gaps of the harbour, you could see it rolling, quite scary to watch. I've never witnessed it come into this harbour so can only assume it is too rough to continue to the towns harbour.



I do love this rough weather and rough seas, am I mad!

Yes it got in and it was nailbiting stuff! It's a bit calmer out there now, the wind has dropped slightly as has the temperature. 5 degrees on my drive home from my sisters which is cold for down here!

s-yorkshire

NO SNOW here in Sussex ...it's just grey, grey and grey......and bitterly cold. Spring can't come soon enough for me so that I can get out in the garden.

It's pretty much the same as yesterday here, sea is crashing over the prom and the bay is full of white horses. The sky is very grey but no sign of snow

We didnt get any either. Just alot of bitey cold wind and a few frozen droplets. Cant wait for the daffy's to show their bright 'lil faces!

Hey Betty Boop,

I might be in your area during the summer of 2009.....would love to meet ya for a drink sometime:-6

life is good

hot and dry and the heat is fightin' the shady tree for rights on my weedy backyard

Back to :-6 again but with a threat of showers later.

Nice and sunny here, maybe storms later too.

Why must it always rain at the end of a pretty day?

It's foggy, drizzly and overcast here again today.



Fingers crossed the weather is better for Golowan next week. Our town will be full of all local schoolchildren with their artwork on banners, papier mache models of anything and everything.

Fireworks at the outdoor pool on friday evening, lots of live music and dancing, great atmosphere!!

Same here Chonsi.

Overcast with the threat of thunderstorms all day... again......

It's been absolutely chucking it down most of the day, and yesterday, and the day before, and the day before, more coming overnight and tomorrow

Sun's shining & it's 81 degrees. Very nice day! :-6
