was wondering whether many of you use webcams like these


http://www.camserv.co.uk/rhos/


http://www.westcoastsurf.co.uk/surfreport.htm


to get an accurate idea of the conditions before setting off on the drive ( often a long one for those that dont live near the sea) to a chosen mark? The camera doesnt have to be exactly where you are going but can give you valuable information as to what you can expect for quite a distance in either direction. Would it be worth having a thread (maybe a sticky) where people can add some similar webcams for their region ? Even split it into regions like the catch reports. Could be quite usefull for anyone going off to try a new area a long way from home.

Great idea Trev.

A one stop surf report page of links? Sounds like a project for a kindly Moderator.

Any volunteers???
