I've read more than 1 newspaper report which said waves could reach 3-4m. What?! As waves go that's nothing. After all it was larger than that in North Sea recently, at Sevenstones off Land's End anything a 5m swell occurs several times a year and the Cribbar reef at Newquay gets 8m at some point most years. The point is this is misinformation, it is the storm surge that could well be 3m. Now that is big.

Certainly looks like a very serious storm.

Anyway, here's a big Cornish wave:- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ckGbmXlCd_0

Here's more of a Cornish surge in the centre of Perranporth. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aum7a9R10Bo during the now legendary March 2008 storm

Well you know with the AGW sisters you are bound to get amplification of any weather normal phenomenon which backs up their pet hobby-the end of the world.

Is it actually a hurricane yet let alone cat 3 ?

There's some spectacular footage of that storm in St Ives, on Youtube.

Um, the subject line calls it a cyclone.
And you're right, it's a cyclone as it's in the Indian Ocean. If it was
in the Atlantic it's a hurricane and a typhoon in the SE Pacific, so
these are all equivalent.

And it looks bad - see
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-india-24487130 so it's nothing to
do with AGW sisters.
