I posted this same question for labor day weekend, but now i need your advice again. Should I drive 4-5 hours from school in central PA to jersey to catch some of Igor. The swell models have this weekend looking damn good. any input or opinions?
if you were here for danielle and earl, this storm is looking to be as if you found the in-between of the two.
Camping in Assateague this weekend. Any advice on how it will hold? wrong wind direction?....obviously it's a couple days out, hopefully Sat is fun out there...
if you can come back for a few days, then yeah. if its a one day or one session deal, then nah bro. on an unrelated note, has anybody been in the water? whats the temp like?
you should proabably stay at school and study. Waves arent gonna be that good. plus the water is supppper cold with all the upwelling, you might want to grab a pair of 3 mil booties.
WOW! How did you make decisions before you found internet forums to poll? The swell/weather info is out there, people on this site can't make up your mind for you. You asked for an opinion - My opinion is you need to begin to learn to make decisions for yourself !!
It's a hurricane swell there will definitely be size. Drive to a place that will take the winds well so the trip goes well. I plan on coming home for Sunday but I'm only 1 hr 20 away.
Dude, its not your fault. Its n o t y o u r f a u l t. Just cuz your dad isnt proud of you and you had that sneaky uncle doesnt mean you have to try and make others feel low.Let the negativity go, you'll feel much better.
eh, i hear ya. This guy can just as easily compare swellinfo spots against weather.com's detailed wind data and make his own decision. Iv seen people take lashings on here for a lot less. Its a bit of a **** statement, but a true one. One things for sure, if i recommend a spot to someone on this forum, you better believe its my plan B or C haha.
and how did you spend you all of your free time before you found internet forums? the whole point this forum is to discuss surfing and i was asking for friendly advice, not jerk responses but thanks for your input anyway.
ask stupid questions, get stupid answers. Swellinfo makes it pretty easy... its either red, blue, or green. If your having doubts, compare against magic seaweed or windguru. in summary: THERE IS A HURRICANE OFFSHORE PUMPING SWELL AT THE EAST COAST, YES, YOU SHOULD GO SURFING.
well the question wasn't simply "should i go surfing?" the question was if the other people on this forum trusted the swell model enough and thought that the forecast would be accurate enough to dedicated 10 hours of driving to this swell. if i was at home of course I would be out there, but unfortunately I don't have the luxury of checking the surf everyday and I rely on websites like this, wave cams, and the opinions of others to make decisions on whether or not this hurricane swell would be worth it.
