Still experiencing "sea fog" between Cronk Y Voddy and Sulby Bridge. Neil Hanson announces that the race has been delayed "again" and that a new start time of 12:30 will come into effect.
The rest of the Island is basking in beautiful sunshine.

Now, here we go with typical Island weather. The mist has cleared on the West and now it is closing in at the Verandah.
Medical helipcopter access not possible in that area for the moment.
Race put back again until 13:30 at earliest.
