On January 8, 2026, in Porthleven, Cornwall, UK, @Cornish_Weather shared unedited, shaky footage of massive waves pounding Porthleven Harbour just before high tide during Storm Goretti. In the video, towering waves crash violently over the harbour walls as powerful 80–100 mph wind gusts batter the area, capturing the raw and dangerous intensity of the storm. Storm Goretti, the UK's first named winter storm of 2026 under European naming conventions, prompted a rare red warning for life-threatening winds and caused over 70,000 power outages along with widespread road closures across southwest England.
