The flat spell continues...

Not much to report at the moment other than the fact that the wind and gales have now blown through. A man was rescued off Port Talbot over the weekend after a kayak fishing expedition went wrong!

Not ideal weather to be going out fishing from a canoe in now is it?! But luckily he was picked up alive.

The winds blew strong and hard from the NE mainly making it feel very chilly over thw weekend but pretty much flast as far as the surf was concerned.

The south coast of Cornwall has prob faired slightly better as a low was sitting just off the coast over the weekend.

By the looks of it, that will remain for much of this week but apart from bringing rain to south Wales, there will not be much in the way of surf as that low weakens day by day and heads south west down into Spain.

Annoyingly it's one of those useless lows(for us) which just brings shit weather with it. The last time I checked, Bank Holiday was looking like a wash-out too but the Welsh National Surfing Championships are on @ Fresh west that weekend ( maybe...)

I'm writing a brain bleeding surf quiz for tomorrow night's WCSC meeting at the Salt House so that should be a laugh, from 7.30pm onwards... 5pm - the sun has come out! :)
