Where did the Great Storm of 1987 make landfall at, first?

The Great Storm of 1987 initially made landfall in Cornwall because the storm originated in the Bay of Biscay and moved northeast towards the southern coast of England. Cornwall, being the southwesternmost part of England, was the first point where the storm's strong winds and heavy rain struck the land. The storm's path then continued across the southern coast, causing significant damage and upheaval before moving further inland.
