Yes, especially on Wednesday when gusts could reach 35 mph from the south-west. Thursday and Friday winds are lighter at 10–15 mph, less suitable for strong lift.
Are the West Bay cliffs safe in this weather?
Wet and windy conditions increase the risk of rockfalls. The soft sandstone and clay cliffs can crumble without warning. Keep at least 5 metres back from the edge.

Sea surface temperature is approximately 8°C. This is cold for swimming; the RNLI advises wetsuits and caution due to wind chill on exposed skin.
