On January 27, 2026 in Porthleven, Cornwall, United Kingdom, @Cornish_Weather shared a video of powerful waves crashing into the harbour during Storm Chandra. In the video, large swells driven by strong winds slam into the harbour walls, sending sea spray directly toward the camera and repeatedly soaking the lens as the tide continues to come in. Filmed around 9:00 a.m. in temperatures near 9°C, the footage captures harsh, windswept coastal conditions. Storm Chandra, the third named storm of January 2026, brought widespread weather warnings across the UK, with Cornwall’s exposed coastline amplifying the force of the incoming Atlantic waves.
