At 7.05 a.m:   Constantine (0*):  8 to 10 feet   And the wind continues to scream and screech as it tears its way into the bays again this morning, ripping and slashing the wild and roaring, still huge surf. The air temperature is mild enough but the sky is heavy and leaden, ready to […]

At 7.10 a.m:   Constantine (0*):  8 to 10 feet   A fresh sou’ wester continues to blow into the bays this morning, pushing and churning some still big lumps of swell around the place. Those waves have calmed down a bit from yesterday’s mighty roar but there are still some big old sweeps running […]

At 7.10 a.m:   Constantine (0*):  BIG  A hard blowing west sou’ westerly is just about blowing the rainfall away so far this morning while blowing the tops off those mountainous waves as they march through the Quies before exploding ashore. Big waves are driving ashore, a fast moving sweep of water on the inside […]

At 7.05 a.m:   Constantine (2*):  4 to 6 feet It’s all pretty yucky out there this morning with a gusting southerly wind blowing in that kind of clinging, fine rain that gets everywhere. The surf is trying to be a bit more shapely but just falling on the wrong side off the wind. And […]

At 6.50 a.m:   Constantine (0*):  8 to 10 feet The wind is not as strong as was forecast for this morning, a steady sou’ westerly is lightly breezing into the bays but it is still fresh enough to bump and slop the thick and chopped swells into lumping and rolling, cresting waves. It’s big […]

At 8.10 a.m:   Constantine (0*):  6 to 8 feet   The wind is howling and the rain is lashing in, a wide pressure-wash sweeping across the bay hosing spray and sand and marram before it. And the surf is wild, a wind tossed and angry looking grey sea of madness swirling around the headland. […]

At 7.45 a.m:   Constantine (1*):  1 to 2 feet   It is all a little sullen this morning with a moody grey sky sulking over the bays, the breeze light and onshore, lazily slopping the tiny surf. We are probably going to see a soaking or two this morning but we should see something […]

At 7.35 a.m:   Constantine (2*):  2 feet   Light but steady rain is drizzling across the bays this morning, the air temperature a little chillier again in the northerly breeze.  But that sky on the other side is quickly brightening, a silver light spreading something brighter for later. In the meantime that same couple […]

At 7.35 a.m:   Constantine (3*):  2 to 3 feet There’s barely a breeze on this murky and mizzly but peacefully cosy Cornish morning, a thick marine mist clinging to the bays to muffle all sound. Two or three feet of lumpy but smooth waves are tumbling ashore, the approaching high tide fattening those waves […]

At 7.25 a.m:   Constantine (2*):  2 to 3 feet The wind is shrieking across the bay once more but today it’s blowing from the South, a much milder and somehow more comfortable direction. And after last night’s rain the sky is clear and bright and a very pleasant shade of blue. That wind is […]
