Storm in our coffee cups

by Joanna on May 26, 2009 in Uncategorized

Now, I’m not sure if you’ve noticed or not, but the weather lately has been somewhat less than pleasant. Unless you happen to be a wavewatcher or rather crazy surfer, that is, in which case there have been some rather spectacular things to see. If you’re the kind who’d rather stay inside nice and warm, here’s a fantastic video that Dave Frampton has made to show you what you’re missing

I know! It looks like a tsunami was on its way to create havoc.

Also seen – someone possibly attempting to recreate the final scene of Point Break.
