There's a video on Youtube from the same perspective. A load of people hanging around on the seafront as massive waves crash in, burst on the wall and splash over the top of the buildings.

Got family on Llyn peninsular near Aberdaron. 100mph not too unusual, but what seems unusual is the frequency of these events. Fields bogged down, cattle stuck inside, electricity off (no underground supply) points to higher food prices come autumn.Originally posted by d000hg View PostWe have a few from those parts, can you report on it for us because 100mph is really something a bit unusual?

BBC News - UK storms: Met Office issues 'Red Warning' for wind
We have a few from those parts, can you report on it for us because 100mph is really something a bit unusual?Winds of up to 100mph are expected to batter west Wales and north-west England, with the Met Office issuing its first "red warning" of the winter.
The warning for 13:30 to 21:00 GMT means there is a "risk to life" and people should "avoid dangerous areas" with widespread damage expected.
