Damn, looks like Sunset Beach, HI

Hype is good

THE HYPE IS STRONG WITH THIS ONE

OMG right!! Hype Hype it up

Must not have been that cold at Mavericks that day, no fullsuit...

Guess it's true what they say about Texas, I don't see no horns on that wave....

What's on that bottom? Wicked rip at the bottom of the pic.

just looking around google maps on South Padre it seems like thats gotta be by that channel. probably gotta get super lucky to score any surf out there but seems like a cool area to explore lots of empty undeveloped beach

That wave is on the northside of the north jetty, the rip is moving out along the jetty. Inside the channel does break, super long left.

Other than it's a Right, that wave and spot reminds me of surf'n big "Elbow". You know your surf'n, but it kinda feels weird to be do'in it 'here'-'there'. Kinda like have'n a dream and your surf'in a big ass peak at the corner of Hollywood and Vine or Haight and Ashbury, or during an Eclipse-

 

 

chingow- 3 in a row- I quit

I surfed that swell that day . Water was 92 degrees waves were best I ever surfed all day long
Friendliest crowds on the planet what stoke!!!!

Guys sorry to see that the strom kinda fizzled out for you guys. Texas is gonna get obliterated with rain. P-Cola and Panama City might be a good wave. We'll have to see what happens.

South Florida might get some homegrown NE swell next week. Winds look offshore too. 

I've seen that photo before, but I'm trippin everytime I seen it.  "Sunset" was the first thing that came to mind too

I caught some great surf in the panhandle from the that stom, but that waves like that in the Gulf is next level shit..... excuse me, let me dust off my 7-6... for TEXAS?!?! 

 

I'm guessing that inside left is like the Pass in Panama City?

Harvey predicted to go Cat two on latests:

Tropical Storm Harvey Discussion Number 16
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL092017
1000 AM CDT Thu Aug 24 2017

Data from an Air Force Hurricane Hunter aircraft indicate that
Harvey is quickly strengthening, and the cyclone's structure has
improved markedly with the plane reporting a closed 15-20 n mi wide
eye. The flight-level and SFMR winds support an intensity of 55 kt,
but one of the more notable measurements is the central pressure,
which has fallen to 982 mb. With a pressure this low, it is likely
that the winds will respond and increase further, and Harvey
probably isn't too far from becoming a hurricane.

With Harvey now strengthening at a faster rate than indicated in
previous advisories, the intensity forecast has become quite
concerning. Water vapor images indicate that the cyclone's outflow
is expanding--indicative of low shear--and Harvey will be moving
over a warm eddy of high oceanic heat content in the western Gulf of
Mexico in about 24 hours. As a result of these conditions, several
intensity models, including the ICON intensity consensus, are now
explicit showing Harvey reaching major hurricane intensity. What's
more astounding is that some of the SHIPS Rapid Intensification
indices are incredibly high. As an example, the guidance is
indicating a 70 percent chance of Harvey's winds increasing by 45 kt
over the next 36 hours. Based on this guidance, the NHC official
intensity forecast now calls for Harvey to reach major hurricane
strength by 36 hours, before it reaches the middle Texas coast.

Aircraft fixes indicate that Harvey has turned toward the north-
northwest, and the initial motion estimate is 340/9 kt. A mid-
level high centered near Florida and the eastern Gulf of Mexico
should force Harvey toward the northwest later today, with that
trajectory continuing for the next couple of days. By 48 hours,
the cyclone appears to get sandwiched between the same mid-level
high over the Gulf of Mexico and a larger high over the
Intermountain West, which will cause Harvey to slow down
considerably during its approach toward the Texas coast and then
potentially stall just inland on days 3 through 5. Mainly based on
an adjustment of the initial position, the NHC forecast track has
been nudged northeastward on this cycle, but it still lies
relatively close to the TVCN multi-model consensus and the HFIP
Corrected Consensus Approach (HCCA).

It is critical that users not focus on the exact forecast track
of Harvey, since cycle-to-cycle adjustment are likely. All
locations within the hurricane and storm surge warning areas should
be preparing for the possibility of major hurricane-force winds and
life-threatening storm surge.

Key Messages:

1. Harvey has intensified quickly this morning, and is now forecast
to be a major hurricane at landfall, bringing life-threatening storm
surge, rainfall, and wind hazards to portions of the Texas coast.
Preparations to protect life and property should be completed by
tonight, as tropical-storm-force winds will first arrive in the
hurricane and storm surge warning areas on Friday.

2. A Storm Surge Warning is in effect for much of the Texas coast.
Life-threatening storm surge flooding could reach heights of 6 to 10
feet above ground level at the coast between the north entrance of
the Padre Island National Seashore and Sargent. For a depiction of
areas at risk, see the Storm Surge Watch/Warning Graphic at
hurricanes.gov.

3. Life-threatening flooding is expected across much of the Texas
coast from heavy rainfall of 12 to 20 inches, with isolated amounts
as high as 30 inches, from Friday through early next week. Please
refer to products from your local National Weather Service office
and the NOAA Weather Prediction Center for more information on the
flooding hazard.

4. The Potential Storm Surge Flooding Map is available on the NHC
website. This product depicts a reasonable worst-case scenario -
the amount of inundation that has a 10 percent chance of being
exceeded at each individual location. This map best represents
the flooding potential in those locations within the watch and
warning areas.
