At 6.20 a.m:   Constantine (1*):  2 to 3 feet A dank and dreary, foggy and mizzle filled morning is welcoming us back from our few days away, the surf a three foot soundalike but invisible in the murk. And the steady west sou’ westerly breeze is strong enough to shake the heavily flowered hedgerows […]

At 6.05 a.m:   Constantine (1*):  4 to 6 feet   The wind and rain of an Autumn morning is washing down the countryside this morning, the wind not quite as strong nor the rain as heavy as was maybe forecast. But storm Hector is still pushing a bit of a blow our way, those […]

At 6.20 a.m:   Constantine (2*):  1 to 2 feet    A lightly overcast morning is not taking away from the calm and quiet of another mild and pleasant morning. The breeze is still while the sky is that bright silver that might just produce some sunshine later, maybe. So it is a shame that […]

At 6.20 a.m:   Constantine (2*):  2 to 3 feet There’s a northerly wind huffing down the coast this morning, chilling the air to surprise us after the last few weeks of warmth and ruffling and crumbling that same two feet plus of steady little swell. The sky is clear and blue while the sea […]

At 6.05 a.m:   Constantine (3*):  2 to 3 feet It’s a lazy, hazy start to the day, filled with the promise of another nice and sunny, calm and peaceful summer’s day. The air temp is just a little lower than it has been, probably a sign that the super light breeze is now drifting […]

At 6.00 a.m:   Constantine (3*):  2 to 3 feet A couple of feet of smooth and shiny surf is shuffling its way to the beach on this bright and cheery, warm summer’s morning, the birds in full voice, a Muntjac running wild, rabbits skipping through the Marram and old Foxy looking very debonair. It’s […]

At 6.20 a.m:   Constantine (3*):  3 feet Haze and low cloud are mixed with a light spread of early morning sea mist this morning, the threat of some drizzle not far away. But it is mild and cosy in that strange way that these calm and windless days have. And that pleasant, solid little […]

At 6.30 a.m:   Constantine (3*):  2 to 4 feet We are blocked in and smothered by a thick blanket of low level cloud this morning, the muffled sound of waves and birdsong drifting across the fields on this still and calm, lazy start to the day. But the surf continues to shine through, those […]

At 6.25 a.m:   Constantine (3*):  3 feet A lightly overcast, hazy kind of dawn is greeting us this morning, that brightness just masked by the early morning fug of a gentle summer’s day. The air is still and so the three feet of rolling swell is all smooth and oilly with glasslike peaks spilling […]

At 6.20 a.m:   Constantine (3*):  2 to 3 feet The breeze is light again on another lazy, hazy, lightly cloud covered morning, the muffled birdsong merging with the light sound of peeling waves. That breeze is still offshore, meeting the two feet of peeling and curling surf head on, coaxing the odd wee barrel […]
