FROM THE NHC: SATELLITE IMAGES INDICATE THAT THE AREA OF DISTURBED ASSOCIATED WITH A TROPICAL WAVE IN THE EASTERN ATLANTIC CONTINUES TO BE WELL ORGANIZED...AND A TROPICAL DEPRESSION COULD FORM AT ANY TIME. THIS SYSTEM HAS A HIGH CHANCE...90 PERCENT...OF BECOMING A TROPICAL CYCLONE DURING THE NEXT 48 HOURS AS IT MOVES WEST-NORTHWESTWARD AT 15 TO 20 MPH. Still a ways to go...
that must be that little disorganized blobs i see to the southeast on the satelite map,looks like it might form into something!
one thread people! it can all go here including: what board do i bring? what wetsuit? do i need more wax for bigger surf? what ci board will help my shred the most in big surf? should i bring my girlfriend to the beach? my dog? will long period surf wash the menstrual stains out of my boardies better than short period? do you think i'll have fun if i didn't have fun last year at the same time but i did that one time 2 years ago? should i do yoga before i paddle out? how many people do you think will be at my homebreak? what music should i listen to before i paddle out? should i smoke weed pre-surf? do sharks like big waves more? what if i see a pelican? is the sand in my board bag going to be a problem in bigger surf? what if i see a pro out? my arms are tireder in big surf, HELP! i just started surfing, should i get an extra lesson before the bigger surf? are all jerzzzey girls like snooki? why are there so many rebel flags in the lineup in the carolinas? OMG I SCORED SO HARD IN PR BRAH!!! wow all you guys are a bunch of beeetchez for being excited about surf... etc... we can do this guys! lets be message board hard core! yeeeewwww!
Hey Travy, if the surf is overhead. Is it alright to let the peanut sharks loose in my wetsuit? I think this is the right thread for this very important question, right?
Storm going wayyyy tooo east. We dont stand a chance of getting Sh**. Next time there is going to be solid swell we"ll be wearing full suits and booties. The rest of this month will be mild mostly offshore days with no big fronts coming through. October will be bust with maybe two decent windswells chest high range quickly getting blown out by blasting NW winds, and November we will start to see some decent nor'east swells that get crushed by brutal offhsores. Why do I say this because the last yr or so has sucked terribly. There was 1-2 good swells per season, except summer and winter they both were complete busts. Its all bullsh** maaann
Ha! After I wrote it I was like damn what a negative rant. But wtf! why cant we just have some good swell!! We got 3 maybe 5 days if you played your cards right thats it!? That is all were going to get!! Ugh so upsetting.
This spring was very good. But other than that I do agree with you. Surfed seemed much better 10 years ago from where I stand. There seemed to be more storm events, better sandbars with uncovered jettys, less surfers in the water. I still have hope that this winter will bring back a more normal weather pattern with noreasters being more common and longer durations to help move all the sand away from the surf zon that has destroyed my island!
You're in a spec of this world that is covered by sea. Go explore and maybe you won't be so pessimistic.
TRAVVY!? DUDE....should I rub one out before I go surf?! I've always wanted the answer to that question.
Sage advice, thats like telling someone that is complaining about how their favorite sports team sucks to just follow the first place team. My point was the surf locally hasnt been the same in recent yrs, and this fall is going to follow that trend. Trend of sucking. Wheres your overhead surf on sunday now? Fffffflllaattttt, at least there will be football.
