Something caught my eye on the satellite yesterday, looked like a nice fetch of NNE pointed at us. Still visible today. http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/goes/east/gmex/vis-animated.gif

New swell hitting buoys this AM, NNE 3' @ 8 seconds.

SATURDAY NIGHT  NORTH NORTHWEST WINDS 10 TO 15 KNOTS. SEAS  3 TO 5 FEET WITH OCCASIONAL SEAS TO 6 FEET. INTRACOASTAL WATERS  A LIGHT CHOP. A CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.  

SUNDAY  NORTH NORTHEAST WINDS 10 TO 15 KNOTS. SEAS 3 TO 5 FEET  WITH OCCASIONAL SEAS TO 6 FEET. INTRACOASTAL WATERS A LIGHT CHOP.  A SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS.

 

Not to be a downer...but if I remember back to when South Florida had waves...

3-5 ft with seas up 6, usually = knee high

4-6 ft, occ. 8 ft seas is usually waist high

6-8 ft seas = chest to bigger wedges

North of Jupiter Inlet those NWS wave heights have a more direct relation to actual wave size.  

 

 

EDIT: updated NWS forecast

  • Saturday NightWest northwest winds 5 to 10 knots becoming north 10 to 15 knots after midnight. Seas 2 to 4 feet with occasional seas to 5 feet. Intracoastal waters a light chop. A chance of showers and thunderstorms. 
  • SundayNorth northeast winds 10 to 15 knots. Seas 2 to 4 feet with occasional seas to 5 feet. Intracoastal waters a light chop. A slight chance of showers. 
  • Sunday NightNortheast winds 10 to 15 knots. Seas 2 to 4 feet with occasional seas to 5 feet. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop. 
  • MondayEast northeast winds 10 to 15 knots. Seas 2 to 3 feet. Intracoastal waters a moderate chop.
