Don't count your chickens before they hatch.

May be fairly small. At this point, the fetch will be pointed more toward Caribbean.
All models are in good agreement though.

(Update 7/26: Models have changed a little biit and gradually have more fetch pointed our way. Changes will occur daily until we get about 3 days from it. Currently, the L looks to be more of a UL.)

No, not the swell event of the year! Believe me continue to follow the site and you will see. This is one ranks right up with the tipper!! They do like it when they post so far out and it actually comes together in REAL TIME forcasting. Btw there's a text messaging that's brand new, seems like some good deals too!

SOME HOPE!! JUST DON"T SOUND THE ALARM YET! Dabuh has it under control!... Stay tuned folks!!

I've seen his 'forecasts' in the past. Nothing but a model reader with no meteorological skill. Doesn't even talk about surf size just uses vague references like 'surf alert conditions' and 'major swell event'. That being said, he definitely says on his facebook page that the ridge and inverted trough/low combination will produce the biggest surf of the year. That is just wrong.

As for your image...imagine that! The GFS develops a tropical wave into a cyclone in late July/early August...better wax up our boards! GFS is always right...just like when it (and DaBuh) thought we were going to have a tropical cyclone develop in the NW Caribbean in June. That verified about as well as his other 'forecasts'. 

I'll give props to Tiptime for his forecasts but this guy isn't in close to the same league.
