Check your favorite wave models.
Looks pretty big for 4 days out. Onshore winds of course, but maybe glass off afterwards. .DISCUSSION... ...Significant High Seas and Surf Event Likely Late Week... Thursday-Friday...As the ridge axis slides away, a strong cold front will dig across the south on Thu, sending a northerly wind surge across the local waters early Friday. As the front continues southward, a tight pressure gradient will increase northeasterly winds up to 20-25 kts with gusts to gale force. Seas will begin to build quickly north to south on Friday up to 9-11 ft and up to 13 ft in the Gulf Stream. A Small Craft Advisory will no doubt be necessary late this week, with the potential for Gale products in the offshore waters. |

Plenty of swell at the Light this AM and the worst sandbars I've ever seen. And no, I'm not just bagging on it to keep people away, it truly sucked; 3 to 4, glassy and not a wave to be ridden from O-club to Hangars.
I hear some of the new sand spots are okay - Satellite, but that might be lies. ------------------------- I was right. Edited: 02/17/2020 at 06:16 PM by Cole |

Sitting in the water waiting, waiting, waiting, for one that will feel a bottom and break. It's time to do some sand recon |

Cole, I surfed with a few friends at Coconuts yesterday and the day before. At higher tide pretty fun. No ditch, nice sandbar, a bit of dynamics to the beach there.

Cole, I surfed with a few friends at Coconuts yesterday and the day before. At higher tide pretty fun. No ditch, nice sandbar, a bit of dynamics to the beach there. I looked down there and wondered. Slater has a perfect bar at 1 foot, anything larger maxes out. lol ------------------------- I was right. |
