I hear you man. I spent about 8 years on that lovely body of water before I moved back to the east coast. It can get unbearably flat on the GC.

Wait! You mean there are sh*ttier places than the east coast?! No

WaveJet or go home

I thought when a Bermuda high is in place we get real nice weather along with a flat ocean? I guess I was wrong.

The Bermuda High, is as you might expect a high pressure system that sits over Bermuda.
If it is ideally situated, it can increase the trade winds that blow in the northern Carribbean region and send ESE fetch/swell our way. Its usually felt from Central Florida through Delmarva...

When we get those 2-3' ground swell type days in the summer, this is usually the source. Ground swell is not really the best term, as the periods are usually around 9-11 seconds..

Whats good about these systems is sometimes they can hang around for a long time. This upcoming system looks to only hang for a couple of days, but hopefully it re-establishes itself in the near future...

In July and August, the frontal systems are usually pretty weak, so if we can get a Bermuda High system, then its a good thing.

Is this swell that's due to arrive Sunday really from a Bermuda High, or rather the counterclockwise rotation that's been spinning ENE of the Bahamas for several days, or a combo of both? Been eyeing that low for days thinking it would materilize into something tropical?

I appreciate your response, thanks for taking the time to provide such a detailed explanation.

expectations for the monmouth county region?

SI doesn't do a surf forecast for Monmouth County? I think they do. Why do people try to get a personal surf forecast out of a thread on a surf forecasting website? Try: Forecast - East coast USA - mid Atlantic - Monmouth County. A detailed answer to your question is there with pretty charts and all. If you ask the forum for the forecast we'll probably send you to the beach with an 8'0'' gun and a 6\4 wetsuit to ride 2 ft surf in 80 degree water.
