Nice, I havn't seen the GFS show that for some reason, but the CMC has been showing that all along. see below. With that said, its still 10 days out and not as reliable as the ECMWF or GFS, anything can happen. Well sh1t, thats not real easy to see...
The latest sattelite imagery is impressive! http://i86.photobucket.com/albums/k84/pkovo/419FD35A-85E6-4142-8CE0-A47982D05A4C_zpsgfrjrevq.jpg
its official!! is that the actual storm looks way too close,last I checked 30 seconds ago it was still In Africa lol. and another thing to notice,u see how far spaced the isobars are(the circles surrounding the low).u want them to be super close together,that right there is no beuno
Looks like Florida will see a little bump later next week, so far, according to MagicSeaweed.. Bigger than its been in a couple of months at least.
I like the way Fiona is tracking. Not a huge storm but with the straight line at the angle of movement, I suspect we will see some waves for a few dayz from it. Especially if it continues this track for as long as possible. That track it's been on is point right at the EC. I'm getting anxious to surf some waves...not on a LB!
I hate to say it, but I just waxed up a brand new board, so all these storms will fizzle out and it will be flat for another couple months. Sorry everyone!
All the deets as of 4:00 today: https://www.wunderground.com/blog/JeffMasters/comment.html?entrynum=3391
Actyally we need a board sacrifice just for the crappy summer lull we have endured. Again I ask who has a candidate? Lets burn this mutha!
