    Thumbs down Over-rated

    All the models were accurate...seemingly easy to predict what was going to happen. One thing we need...SAND! After a long summer and tons of south wind flow...all we have is a big sloping beach with no sand anywhere. I am still optimisitic for Sunday, but with the South wind this morning...everyone and their mother was at the cove. I hope no one jumps on here claiming this was the session of the century...I would rather wear a 5.43 and get barreled then surf gutless, soft NS with 3 billion Pennsyletuckians! I heard at least three morons say "I got tubed". I may not be an expert, but head dips don't count. Sorry...just needed to vent. At least I got to see a really cool sunrise. I hope the beach levels out and sucks some sand out this afternoon, so we can all just spread out a little bit. Praying for a better day tomorrow.

    High Tide is not until 10 ish...I was in the water by 6! That should have been perfect...I do my homework. I rarely post on this site because there is so much garbage. Like "what is a session"? Micah does a wonderful job using all the data and makes it much easier than the old ways of trying to explore the noaa website. I guess I got caught in the hype. I will be on it again tomorrow for sure...hopefully with barrels glistening against the sunrise and not three hundred goons. I have never seen so many NSP's...I am sure this will get some comments. Most of the people on here claim they rip them soooo hard the fin boxes blow out. The letters should mean Never Surf Pennsylvanians!

    Yeah, the wave heights aren't what were predicted yet, but how can you accurately predict the ocean? Bill's intensity has dropped a little and an approaching cold front may bring unfavorable winds as well. Just have to keep checking the conditions.

    We'll see what happens at the lower tide. Right now in VaBch I am seeing a lot of shorebreak and closeouts for the most part. The jetty is offering a slighly better ride, but not much. Plus everybody and their brother are there. It looks like a sea of people floating around.

    Can't understand why anyone would go there to surf anyway. It was pretty good this afternoon between 1:00 and 3:00 where I was and only a few out. The tide played a big role today. Let me rephase that - It was pretty good for OC this afternoon.......... Some solid head high sets that held up fairly well. After this summer, I'll take it!!!
