West Cornwall in Winter

For those unsure where Cornwall is, it is the tiny leg part of the UK and I live 18 miles from Lands End. St Ives is the nearest town and it has had extensive flooding over the years. We have more worrying weather to come, so we are battening down the hatches and praying that we don't get too flooded.
( St Ives Underwater )Making Waves
Jan. 3rd, 2014 03:25 pmJust before Christmas I posted a photo of Newlyn harbour with the waves well over the wall. This is the footage of the actual wave - you have to realise that these quays are huge, so the report of a massive sea swell and thirty foot waves is not just extreme hyperbole. Think the second shot is Penzance harbour - but you get the gist.
We have been through quite an intermittent, but lairy hail/thunderstorm that keeps knocking the electric out. It certainly thumped on our cottage, which juddered slightly under the impact. Not ideal when I am running behind on my coursework and the blackout are screwing with the pc. Learnt by this mistake and I power the pc down when the clouds darken again. I have heard that there has been extensive flooding in St Ives and Looe, more weather due tonight and tomorrow. Meanwhile, I am going to spend my time working on my 1984 Sense of Place essay.
EDIT :::: Damned storm has killed out satellite dish. No signal at all - strange as Hubby was clearing the gutter earlier between storms and the dish looked perfectly fine :-(
