Wild weather again
It is fantastic how you can mointor the weather so well from your armchair.

Once again SW Wales/Cornwall is the worst - 51kts and wave heights of 6.2m or over 20'. Should be fun out in the RIB tomorrow......

Is also great - mind you all I have to do is look out of my window and I get the general idea!!!

We recorded just over 50knots down at Milford lastnight, while Pembroke had about 5knots less.... some local conditions affecting that though.
