North road trip not west...burning vacation time...watching...

Lows forming in Jacksonville. Sure, there's nothing wrong with the weather.

I was right.

Chilly water and some nasty jellyfish in Cocoa Beach today.

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

This particular pattern is actually not that rare at this time of the year...the low formed further west and travelled across the state pulling gulf moisture energy with it. The rain yesterday morning felt "tropical" in nature and checking the radar confirmed the counterclockwise rotation signature over north central Florida. Seems to me these happen once or twice a year around this time.

Clearly this is due to global climate change. No debate since lows forming off the Carolinas has never happened.

Nothing showing up for swell from magic seaweed yet.

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.

If we could have one stall in the north swell window. It does not happen often.. but when it does..... You know the spot.

gotta go with Dubdub on this one Coal. I have been keeping track. it is not unusual and the data supports it. I have posted about it before. More and more tropical storms are being born out of this area. It is connected to the freshwater spring off Flagler Beach, and I think the repeated draining of inland springs from Nestle and friends could be a factor. No one seems to want to address it, but I am certain it is all connected. Discuss,

Update - thorough groundsoaking RN.

dont you remember the noname storm?

^^^Man, does that explain alot....

5/5

iIndeed. it IS all connected!

I remember surfing Slambasso in the middle of that thing, we went in after a set of like 6 stairs with snapped jagger edges floated by us. If I remember correctly the 20 mile buoy went over 20 ft that night.
