While the wild winds and huge waves hitting the coast were not on the same scale as those during last years super storms, Mother Nature still put on quite a show at Porthleven this morning as high tide approached.

The port received a battering last year after storm after storm pounded the coast, and while last night's storm saw recorded winds of over 80mph and swells reaching over 20ft the harbour escaped damage.

Packet photographer Christine Hosey was out braving the elements to grap these pictures and videos.
