Default West Cornwall, Lighter winds, BIG swell

An big improvement over yesterday. Much lighter winds this morning
with good sunny spells. We appear to have been in a slack presuure
gradient just to the north of a feature running east just off the
south coast. The cloud & rain visible well out to sea.

Most (but not all) of the cumulus development is along the spine of
the peninsula, aligned with the wind, with most of the sunshine on the
coast.

Temperature @ 13:00 18.2C, so rather below normal, but feeling
pleasant in the much lighter winds. Wind looks set to increase this
afternoon.

A big & rather dangerous swell today, unusually large for July.

Well worth a look
