Wunderground has the best handle on the local wind forecast atm. NWS MLB is leaning too heavily on GFS model output and it has been completely useless of late.

Wunder has it north at twenty for a big part of the day.

S CB streets : Eyeball viz: 8am

Wind is light to calm, swell is somewhere around 3-5 . Some wobble, crinkle. Heading for a 915 high tide, funky scoured out bottom. Gotta look around.

-------------------------
So if you are a surfer I wish you the prosperity that allows you more time to pursue the salt water dream, and the true happiness that comes from warm water, clean waves and the companionship of your fellow surfers. If you are an internet troll just spewing bs then f off.

Thanks for the reports. I'm looking to surf this Sunday afternoon and HOPEFULLY the wind slows down and grooms it better.

^ Still looking very windy sloppy- at least up here north of cape Volusia area - hopefully early tommorow will at least be lighter? DP to start workweek

-------------------------

get up early and go surf - it'll make that hangover go away and/or make the workday more tolerable :)

as someone who grew up where the surf is actually terrible for around that percentage annually, was landlocked for the better part of 6 years, and now lives in an even more infrequent surfing locale than where i grew up, i will tell you that some of y'all are serious whiners and would do everyone a favor if you quit surfing/complaining. also: don't forget that two weeks ago a place only a few hundred miles away got completely decimated. take no day for granted let alone the beauty of living in paradise and having the ability to surf something within an hour hour and a half drive max if you actually cared about surfing.

Agreed. Everyone complains when it's flat and once there's something to ride, people still have something to say. "It's too crowded" "Hate how it's not offshore" "Hate how it's not low tide" Making comments about certain conditions is one thing, but people flat out complain too much. Surfing would be in a much better place if all the people not having fun in the lineup just quit and picked up something else instead

F-ing sanctimonious much??

- You were the one that posted the whiny, bitchy, judgmental BS about kite surfing being "for rich people who can't surf" My post was to point out that their can be and are other reasons that someone might want to look for an alternative to "surfing" where the conditions are not favorable the vast part of the time.

I am not sure exactly what your f-ing problem is with me but you have know idea where I live, how much I have traveled to find surf ( when you actually had to search and not follow the internet informed hoards) or how much I have given back to the surfing / beach communities through 4 f-ing decades of volunteer work. As for the Bahamas ( a place I have been to in the neighborhood of 200 times to surf and dive) .... I helped 3 different groups in my area gather and send badly needed supplies and will do so several more times in the near future.

So take your judgemental BS and stick in your uninformed ass.
