Storm Herminia Hits Cornwall - Massive Waves and 30-Foot Swells Batter Porthleven Harbour

Storm Herminia has struck Porthleven, Cornwall, unleashing a relentless 30-foot swell and enormous waves that have caused chaos throughout the harbour. The intense weather conditions have overwhelmed the usually sheltered port, with massive waves crashing over the harbour walls, and flooding the surrounding areas. Local authorities have warned of the continued risk as the storm rages on, with high winds and rain further exacerbating the situation. It’s a stark reminder of the raw power of nature, and the toll it can take on coastal communities. The scene in Porthleven is one of both awe and devastation, with the storm showing no signs of relenting anytime soon.

Home, a long time ago. The stormy norm, listening to the baulk booming (rattling) all night, protecting the inner harbour. Thanks.
