    its a tough call with the winds tomorrow morning... with the low hanging right off the coast.

    the GFS model showing a period a offshore winds, while the NAM showing a more developed low and NE winds hitting earlier. I'm favoring the GFS winds right now, and I think there could be a period of clean conditions for the morning...

    yea a lot of folks are saying nay, while some are saying it could be fun...

    im also curious as to whether the form will be decent because I know whenever there is any easterly fetch, it tends to constantly closeout...

    PS... I'm guessing that you are referring to the Delmarva area, since that is what is posted on your profile?

    Keep in mind this forum serves the whole Mid Atlantic, so there is quite a bit of variation from Jersey to OBX... By the way, the OBX is looking good tomorrow.

    Waves stink here. N/NE winds got it by the tide. The ocean is drying up.

    How is it looking in south jersey today? Do you think it will be better today or tomorrow. It looks like the swell will be wind driven (and destroyed) tomorrow. Will the ground swell today hold up throughout the day? Or is tomorrows wind swell looking better?

    south jersey is looking good right now. south facing areas are key. get on it before the wind does.

    Nice call

    I went out this am uptown ocmd and it was fun but right on shore... but from 5:30 to 7:30 I went downtown for a session and it was really fun. Good sandbar that was working like a charm at times. Seemed like it was a bit bigger in the evening, with some super nice sets with nice lines. Best day in a while. Nice forecast, it was right on.:)
