To swellinfo admin HERE WE GO AGAIN

Again...Almost Every single forecast, there is more of a westerly component of that actual swell than what is forecasted.
If you do verification with station 44097 you will see this.

Currently a 226 degree swell(due sw) when it's forecast to be SSE at 10pm

If the forecast says a S swell....it's either SSW or SW On the block island buoy.
If the forecast says SW swell....It's WSW.

It's like clockwork. THere's a south bias on the models. I've seen this year after year during the summer on south swell events.

Again NOT a knock on this site. It's a great site. Just something I notice with the models.

Shut up dude HERE WE GO AGAIN with another useless post

I think he's angling for a job, he'll perfect the RI report. HE KNOWS THERES A BIAS!!!!!!!!!!! Damn you Swellinfo why? Why does there have to be a bias?

better this than the standard "BRO THIS SITE SUKS UR FORECASTING SUKS IM GOIN 2 SURFLINE". at least he's got some data behind his criticism.

again, the lesson here is sw swells suck, no matter how you slice it.

only type of south swell we get is SE...were not getting jack from this. atleast you all got some bumps out there

Yeah man seriously, WTH. I mean, the swell was better than forecasted this morning...SO LAME! I totally wish it said double overhead so everyone and their mom would be out! Yet again Swell Info, you have kept the crowds away...I love you (in a platonic way).

Swell is working with the government to increase more tourists = raise profits in tourist attraction areas = blue ball locals. damn obama...

God how I wish you kids grew up in a time before the internet. If we wanted to surf, we called Shags on Indianlantic and got a live report. If it was 2-4 or bigger, we went east. After a 3 hour drive, you got there and it was dead flat or 4-6 ft. You never knew if it was getting bigger or smaller. Man up and quit whining. Your lucky to live in a time when you can pull up a forecast on your phone. I for one want to thank you swellinfo for your work. I appreciate it more than you know. Like my dad used to say, "What do you want for nothing, your money back?"
