Huge Storm Noa Waves Hits Cornwall, England, UK | Storm Noa

[@stephenskinner3851]

Telephoto lens and slowing up the film makes the waves look bigger than they are. This is Cornwall and it juts out into the Atlantic and there are Atlantic storms.

[@baileyboss6044]

Yeah that's exactly what's going on here.

[@stonehengemaca]

I watched at 2x speed.

[@Wriggs74]

The way the camera has been positioned. Makes the waves look much, much bigger.

[@edmann2433]

Interesting camera work

[@WELLBRAN]

Haha it's taken at an angle that makes it look like that ...very clever ..I live there so I know

[@lindaw.5836]

Hello fellow St.Juster,!!! there's another huge wave that breaks over Senen lifeboat station, right up over the cliff top!

[@Lozwave]

yeah okay smarty pants, then how tall are they exactly ?

[@johnthomss5962]

Oh yes there is a place called Cape Cornwall which you can get to via St Just. Used to exercise my border collie, a retired working dog, there regularly until I suffered a spinal condition. It is part of the National Trust!

[@alm5966]

Telephoto lens compression. Zoom out and they'd look as normal as on any windy day.

[@diegoandresparragonzalez769]

That's freakin scary I wouldn't be standing there

[@rhythmisadancer8394]

It would take your breath away being that close

[@thomasduffmcgready-zb3yt]

​@rhythmisadancer8394 yes and also blow my Wig off if I had one on me. Watching this is I guess is one way of Blowing it big time. You see I love waves watching and even if I came across a Crime Wave I wouldn't report it because I would wave back . Same as standing at the seaside beach watching waves I would wave back saying why hello there .😊😅😂

[@barneyrubble9309]

They are miles away...ever heard of telephoto compression

[@NthQldGirl]

Those waves look like mountains 😱🫣

[@jeremyclifford1664]

Cape Cornwall,near St Just,Cornwall,it is there,as it is in some of the film,awesome weather/waves,love it,thanks

[@MrsOliva]

It's monster surfing time.

[@Solz-h5u]

I love Cornwall zennar going there next Friday so excited to see my nan

[@Omurodashii]

amazing waves 😨😨

[@darenthorpe7499]

Wales is NOT in England. It’s part of Britain. It’s part of Great Britain. It’s part of the United Kingdom. It’s part of the British Isles. It is it’s own country separate from England. Facts need checking!

[@adamlea6339]

The footage and commentry was almost entirely about Cornwall and SW England, Wales only got a fleeting mention.

[@timdale4047]

Who cares anyway?

[@thomasduffmcgready-zb3yt]

Now Now calm down and Chile or I'm going to have to ground you and anymore off that no Icecream for no weeks. Because there won't be Icecream. Children calm peace and jam. The end of that Thank God.😊😅😮😂

[@moonshadow--1207]

I wanted to see the footage from the video you used for the thumbnail.

[@luciendemaine5153]

Good video.

[@silentnature977]

The cover image of the video would have won a prize in a competition, excellent picture in terms of everything.

[@rat_king2801]

surfs up dudes 😳🤙

[@sheldonvern]

2:04 looks like a giant crocodile poking his head out lol

[@dontmissthelittlethings]

The power of the ocean, incredible.

[@colbridge]

Wow!

[@kelcritcarroll]

Holy crap!

[@anni50ful]

We get hit by huge Atlantic waves in Cornwall .

[@mslwinterford9071]

Yes there is

[@jonathangoll2918]

Doesn't the height of normal ocean waves depend on the "fetch", I.e. the distance the waves have travelled? The prevailing winds hitting the UK or the Republic of Ireland are from the West or South-west, which means the waves can have travelled thousands - or at least hundreds - of miles. That is why they can be so big.

[@someblokecalleddave1]

The biggest waves on the planet are seen in the Atlantic ocean, but we're protected from them due to the continental shelf. As waves move out of the deep ocean, their power which extends deep into the ocean (Think of the surface waves being part of an energy phenomenon akin to an iceberg e.g. the top part is a manifestation of something far larger) the lower part of the energy source then drags across the increasingly shallow continental shelf and takes all the sting out of the wave by the time they hit our shores thankfully. One place in the Atlantic where this can be seen not to be the case is Nazare in Portugal. There's a massive canyon that cuts through the continental shelf right up to Nazare, so the full force of the waves from the Atlantic move up the deep canyon and make landfall - hence the massive surfing waves seen at Nazare that are in the region of 100' (30 metres) or more. If it wasn't for the continental shelf our coasts around the UK would regularly see waves of that magnitude. These waves in this vid are relatively small - made more dramatic with the use of long focal length lenses.

[@greenman6141]

wave height depends upon fetch, the strength of the wind, and the period of time that the wind blows. for example: a super strong wind that blows for 20 minutes, will not produce waves as big as the same strength wind that blows for 45 hours. Or, light winds blowing for 20 hours will produce smaller waves than a stronger wind blowing for 20 hours. then there's the fetch element. Essentially the distance over which the winds can blow. This is why the southern ocean is so notoriously rough. There is no land to break the winds. They just circle the earth, roaring round and round. But the Pacific is so big that it also can see enormous waves. Though the North Atlantic is notorious for being rough, especially in winter. This is largely to do with the warm gulf stream, and the air above it, rushing north into the colder water and air.

Imagine if you lived in that house 😮😮😮

[@paolamura3497]

These waves look "fishy" to me!!!

[@Layton1235]

Feels crazy I was there the other day

[@IsobelIsobel123]

I love stormy weather but surely that is death wishing standing there 😮😮😮

Yerrrr Right’On’Beauty mate 🧙🏻‍♂️

[@dontmissthelittlethings]

Hope the people at the finish were rescued.

Nazare like that :)

[@davsocoolcool5936]

bro that’s not a wave that’s a killer

[@kaxar6954]

I love watching stormy seas. Must move to a coastal city soon.

[@WellRaverOfficial]

Surf's up!!! (actually, might leave this one!)

[@nhhdjdhdj6496]

The wave shown is at St Nazarre in Portugal, not the UK. Also, Wales is not in England they are two separate countries within the United Kingdom, in Wales they speak Welsh not English. And there is nowhere in England called Cape Cornwall. It's a county,

[@hisclarkyness]

That is indeed Cape Cornwall and not Nazarre. I have stood by that house and watched the sea. Albeit, never quite as impressive as that. Cape Cornwall is indeed a place. Just NW of St Just. It is a gorgeous spot. Good for rockpooling, great walks, plenty of wildlife and a National Trust carpark. Well worth a visit.

[@followingnazarene]

Everything you said was wrong

[@bradhouse6684]

You should look up the percentage of Welsh speakers in Wales. Also learn to read a map.

[@mellowfellow4755]

And Grandma is really called Grandad

[@BillSikes.]

There are two Capes in the UK, Cape Wrath at Durness Scotland, and Cape Cornwall, between Geevor and Lands End Cornwall

[@ocean5239]

Where is exactly ?

i hope them waves come to wipe out the dingys

[@michaelhudecek2778]

🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@td5320]

As a side note. There isn't a place called 'Cape Cornwall', it's only called 'Cornwall'.

[@jeremyclifford1664]

There is a place called Cape Cornwall,with a,NationalTrust carpark,( where some of this was filmed,near the village of St Just,lovely place

[@MrDarkmenace1]

There is a place called Cape Cornwall. I live near there. It's about a mile or so further east than Sennen Cove and just outside a little town called St Just. There's even a Cape Cornwall golf club. 5 or 6 years back we had waves crashing onto the cliffs next to Sennen cove that were incredibly 250 ft high. Theres a great picture of them dwarfing the lifeboat house down in the cove.

[@kw8757]

Get a map, look at the north side of Cornwall near Lands End, definitely a place called Cape Cornwall.

[@northernlights6459]

@@jeremyclifford1664, it’s a magical place, I’ve visited on two occasions.

[@Marc-dj5fk]

I'd probably get a map out before making such an idiotic statement.

[@Jessa-RM]

Makes me wanna watch Poldark

[@jimboslice9472]

those waves r small

[@jamiebriggs1249]

How big are they?

I think 15-20 meters high

[@bretagnejean2410]

​@i think not. The footage is abused. The biggest wave recorded in uk was 22 meters but in ocean. In brittany near isle of ouessant the biggest recorded was 24 meters. Probably around 10 meters there.

[@ronflynn5043]

WHATS THE PURPOSE OF THE SLIT IN CENTRE OF SCREEN ? DONT YOU WANT US TO SEE TOO MUCH ?

[@dodahspeak]

I agree with a comment below; This looks faked: the house and people on the right have been superimposed on waves filmed from a ship at sea. Reply

[@shuanluke3983]

Cornwall is a Dutchy with it's own counties , its not a county of england

[@jac585]

Sorry i dont think wind did this.

[@elmensajero7295]

the people at the end jajaja so idiots, why they dont left the video to see how they came up after the foam wave?

[@abtechgroup]

stop moving the camera around!

[@WilHenDavis]

The correct pronunciation is "Cornwull", so why do all Americans say "Cornwaaaaaaaahhhhhhhlllll" Uggghhhh! 😢

why delete my comment

[@marktiller1383]

I looked up cornish weather, I unfortunately lived there for 2.5years, being paid f all for a highly skilled well paid trade, to be rained on in that shit county, barely ever seeing the sun , never experiencing a warm summer , fantastic summer's in the SEast, se tempertures miss appropriate by the locals who have zero idea what a warm summer really is. 24c and were all dying from the heat. A total shit hole, moved to Australia, I'd rate Cornwall 2/10 the se 8/10 at least you got summers and clear but cold and crisp winter and could remember what the sun looked like in the early 2000s .

[@umbro12]

Bloke out there surfing

[@johnsimms9067]

This looks like a fake: the house and people on the right have been superimposed un waves filmed from a ship at sea.

[@MrDarkmenace1]

its real. I live there

[@dodahspeak]

I totally agree. That was the first thing that I thought!

[@AnitaDil]

They’re not superimposed, I have been there in storms. The camera work is a bit dodgy but in many places in Cornwall, North and South you get huge waves in stormy weather.
