John is back this week and has been capturing some images of the effects of Storm Brian, that has brought enhanced high tides and gusts of wind of over 75mph to Abersoch today.

The storm has been a powerful one, but is not particularly unusual for this part of the UK.

The Pen Llyn coastline sees it fair share of quality surf conditions on its beaches that are exposed to the Atlantic swells and this has resulted in several surf orientated shops opening in Abersoch since the 1990's, as well as a couple of surf schools. With wetsuit technology allowing 12 month surfing in the UK, there has perhaps never been a better time to have a go at the sport! Many thanks to the talented Phill Boyd for standing in for regular photographer John Wormald this week and capturing this great shot of the local surf.
