A man is missing after being washed out to sea off Cornwall.
The 26-year-old, from Guildford in Surrey, was with a group of friends when the accident happened at about 01:00 GMT, at Loe Bar, near Porthleven.
Falmouth Coastguard said four of the group were hit by a powerful wave, but three managed to get back to shore.
A spokesman said the search had been restricted to coastguard teams ashore because of heavy rain, strong winds and poor visibility.
"The search and rescue helicopter and lifeboats are available, but with 10ft (3m) waves and such poor visibility it's just too risky to use them at the moment," he told BBC News.
It is understood the group were celebrating new year on the beach.
Coastguard teams from Porthleven, Mullion, Porthousestock and Penzance are involved in the search
It's never too late to be who you once could have been...
