Largest waves in the world will hit Cornwall on Wednesday

[Benjamin]

THE largest waves in the world will hit the Cornish coast on Wednesday.

Forecast website www.stormsurf.com has predicted waves between 30 and 38 feet are to once again batter the coast.
​
This forecast shows Cornwall will be hit by the largest waves in the world on Wednesday.

According to the website’s forecast, these will be the largest waves recorded on the face of the Earth at that time with usual big wave spots such as Australia, Hawaii and Fiji falling short.

The Met Office, the Exeter-based national weather forecast company, has issued a wind warning on Wednesday with 80mph gales set to accompany the huge waves.

Entire communities are still reeling from this weekend’s weather onslaught with flooding reported all over Cornwall.

But that may not be the last of it as another round of 25 feet waves could be rolling in to Cornwall on Saturday.

Yes, on the day Alex. And if you want to be picky, Katrina wasn't the biggest/worst waves either. :tongue:

[Cherie]

Probably was built further away but due to erosion is no longer that far, also back in the day a lot of freight was carried by sea/rivers and transported onto trains for overland so raillines were built in close proximity for transport.

and LOL Kizzy.
