Just listened to Levi at TT . Very interesting stuff for this weekend into the first part of next week. A few good models have a storm pushing into the Bahamas next Monday . Speculation with science
jdbman , I agree that the 1010 buoy is trending up , but it's from the ESE direction at 9sec . The NE Bahamas 47 buoy is show 10 sec from more SE direction , that's the juice that may or may not reach us
update : the 120 miler has been pinging since early morning ,see if there are any worms to be found when the sun rises

best kind for us.... size and period increases.... hoping for evening T-storm glass-off

Fun morning. Kinda fat with the high tide but got better and more consistent towards mid-morning, was getting fun as I left.

Let's get that hype train a rolling boys!!

I just got back from surfing 2L. Space X launch was cool. Tuesday Surf is 2 feet, maybe 3. Long lines, SE angle. Its rideable, best for longboards right now. Maybe with the tide lower. Wind just turned onshore. Saw some sets starting to break on the outside.

Wind just turned onshore. Damn. Haste manana.

Fun for sure. Plenty of waves on the shortie.

I was right.

90 MPH west wind with the storm, now it's back onshore and the lightning isn't even done.

Florida can be a real bitch.

-------------------------
I was right.

The boy and I surfed S Cocoa Beach 11-2. Waist to chest SE lines with plenty of open faces. Wind turned onshore around 1230. I videoed him for the last hour. Was a blast on the Neilson quadster. I had enough good waves that my son actually fell under the illusion that I can surf.

"If I say it's safe to surf this beach, captain, then it's safe to surf this beach!"

That's a great dad moment. Summer. Fickle. You got a moment though.

Lets hope the latest GFS update is a computer glitch.

Still swell, but with some morning sickness. It looks like there was an early morning thunderstorm offshore and the winds hacked it up a bit. The westerlies seem to be straightening it up again. It might be fun from 10:30 to 11:00.

I was right.

Yes Cole! Sweet wind switch yesterday around 3 as well. Still waves this morn. high tide sandbars have built back in. The grom pack at first north was hilarious! A couple serious rippers in the mayhem. I surfed at nuts with guards and beach vendor crew. Very pleasant morning

found some fun ones this morning
at secret high tide spot

Definition of stoke in those photos above! Like 'em.

Duff, Vic from Costa, Bowman, Tommy Maus, the Neilsons, McLaren, Claude, Alan White, the Russels, Cape Surf crew, Jimmy of QF, Catalyst groms and those interloping bastards from down south like hunter Joslin and John "I'm going to fade Cole off of this wave" Carter, do give the area quite the scene!



-------------------------
I was right.

Major models in agreement for a big one in the near future....

Plan B is on it. Some of the models are showing one coming right at us the week after labor Day , others have a Cat 3 spinning towards Bermuda . Plenty more behind that in Africa to follow. Might be a very busy September .

GFS = super BULLISH (as usual)... Last 2 updates = . EURO calling the system too, but slows it's roll a bit. I like GFS for a regular local weather patterns, but Longterm forecasts on tropical systems I tend to lean towards the Euro. We'll see
