A series of giant waves were caused by a combination of a storm-swell and perfect offshore winds off the coast of Cornwall.
</P><P>
However in Scotland gale-force winds and torrential rain continued to batter the country today, leaving thousands of people without power and causing travel chaos on the roads.
</P><P>
As the 12-hour storm took hold, numerous roads were blocked by fallen trees, roofs flew off buildings, and some schools were forced to close.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/news.html?in_article_id=507033&in_page_id=1766&ito=1490">

But it was worth it as the Atlantic finally showed its awesome power and sent millions of litres of water over the Cribbar Reef off Fistral Beach., Newquay, in the form of a giant 30ft wave.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/8D3E33CF-8366-4FEF-A318-CC323C95CE02/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
