Paul Tallet's rough sea observation.
Posted: Sun Jan 22, 2017 9:25 am
Hey, after reading Paul's recent Liquid Sunshine post I'd like to add my 'two cents'.
He mentioned noone predicted rough seas two weeks ago yet my fellow surfers from Trinidad knew about that swell 5 days before it hit on Thursday evening. We've seen the T&T MET office claim also that these waves are freak swells yet surfers from abroad know about them days in advance. Magic Seaweed might not always be entirely correct but it gives a decent idea if what's coming.
Also when it comes to liability for incorrect weather predictions, has anyone ever successfully sued the BBC for it's sometimes incorrect predictions?
