2017 Atlantic Hurricane Season Forecast Calls For Less Activity Than 2016

I don't care who you are, you get caught inside during a huge set and your eyes are gonna light up! It doesn't have anything to do with experience, it's still an "oh sh!t" moment! After the set passes, if the person is clinging to their board coughing up water, rather than paddling back out, that might have something to do with experience. HA

 

Based on this here thread, hurricane season will be cancelled due to a lack of interest.....
Carry on.

 

Agreed. Look at how wrong they got Matthew. The cone should have been about 600 miles across.

 

Agreed! They are kooks who can't even swimme.

I'll say this: the water is very warm. Be Prepared! LOL

 

Ever since Irene and Sandy, I get a little uneasy when reports of hurricanes happen. My neighborhood got hit hard during Sandy, but mostly because I'm 2 blocks from the Glimmer Glass in Manasquan. Nothing was destroyed over here, but flooding was awful. I evacuated, but it was a mess after I got back. Luckily my house sits on a slight slope and is a few feet above ground level. A little bit of water seeped through the bottom of the garage doors, but no damage to any of the cars of bikes THANK GOD!

Manasquan is a peninsula, you got Stockton Lake on the north end of town, the Glimmer Glass on the south end of town and the ocean on the east end of town. That rinky dink storm in 2006 on Labor Day weekend (Ernesto?) made a couple trees fall on my block. Damaged a roof and a destroyed a car when one fell on it. I wasn't living in this house yet at the time, but I remember being around and seeing it. Almost everything on the 1st ave behind the beach was at least damaged during Sandy. The dunes from the beach ended up a block or two away and destroyed some of the really old bungalows there.

We've had nice surf from some of those really active years in 2010 and 2011 though, as well as some of the more recent but less active years.

 

I flupsing hate El Nino, flup the hurricanes, el Nino destroy's our ground swell. If that shyte comes back this year I'm pulling out my burner and emptying clip after clip into the lowest hanging clouds. Maybe if I start caping the climates boys it will get the hint and flup off with that El Nino garbage. Agro or eggy doesn't do my anger justice on this one, maybe I'll hire Indians to dance around a fire backwards chanting esir naeco esir

 

it got real after sandy hit.irene wasn't that bad where I'm at,it flooded but just above the curb,nothing deep.i live near the bay so it often floods,but sandy I remember thinking it wasn't going to be sh1t but then around 830pm I seen the streets go from dry to 5' deep in 15 minutes,telephone poles floating by,etc.as far as winds and rain it wasn't bad,just a freak of a surge.who knows when the next one will hit

 

Sandy was obviously real bad. That got crazy. But people often over look Irene. Wasn't anywhere near as bad as Sandy, but i was still without power for a week. Which isn't a huge deal but still, that's a big storm. I will say the day after Irene was amazing though. Just a really memorable day. It had size, perfect shape, and was just peeling forever. I remember looking back towards the beach and i saw like 8 photographers all on the dunes with legit setups and tripods. Felt like i was surfing a world class wave

 

My island had a tornado and cat 3 go though it during last year, so we will wait and sea. No one can predict a world of millions of years perfectly after a few hundred years of recorded weather history.

 

Make that a "world of 4.5 BILLION years" and I will agree with you.

 

Are you absolutely sure that it's not like 6000 years old dude?

 

My then fiance and I evacuated during Irene, up to my friend's up in West Milford. He lost power, but he had a generator and everything was fine. We came back a day after the storm and I had power, but my neighbors said they had lost it for almost a day. The weird thing was my friend up in West Milford where we had stayed, their power was out for almost a week! But he had the generator and had power the whole time. I surfed Cape May a couple days before Irene and it was awesome! Crowded but pretty awesome nonetheless! It drew a lot of people from Delaware, who probably came over on the ferry.

Sounds pretty scary. Glad I left and missed most of it.

 

he's sure bro
he was there

 

i was just talking aboot how long the world has been a relatively (calm state) compared to what it used to be.

 

Well hold on a minute--I need to check my reference source....the Bible.
Doesn't exactly say, but seeing as I have been around at least that long..........according to stank.
