bloomberg just said no surfing sunday

I'm not exactly a hard-core rebel, but do they have any actual authority on this?
I was going to check it in AM and let the conditions make up my mind

 

yo is this forreal? i am heading to long beach in the morning

 

all i've been able to find is this tweet:

Bloomberg: The beaches are dangerous, and surfing is extremely dangerous. No surfing tomorrow, please. #Sandy @NYNJSurf

 

you have got to be ****ing kidding me

 

Bloomberg On Soda Ban: ‘We’re Simply Forcing You To Understand’ What’s Better For You

 

You think the following statement applies just to beach park? or all of long beach?

"Beach park is closed and entry into the ocean is strictly prohibited."

bloomberg doesn't have jurisdiction over Long Island. He's the mayor of NYC, not the governor of NY.

 

Long beach isn't part of NYC. It is its own city.

 

If it's bombing they're gonna have to get a boat out there, handcuff me and drag me away from the peak...

 

If a beach is non life guarded get salty People, ya think a cop or ranger rick is gonna wait on shore for ya? And if so jus drift away lol. Or go with the antelope mind set "safety in numbers" chances of you getting a ticket will be higher if your the first one out of the water

 

plain and simple, anyone who paddles out in this mess before Thursday has no regard for his life. Say hi to John Gotti when you get to bottom of the ocean for me.

 

Tomorrow morning to mid-afternoon looks best for western NY. Not seeing the predicted swell energy on the buoys yet, but the winds cooperate on multiple forecast models until early to mid-afternoon. After that I'm not sure we'll have favorable winds until next Friday at the earliest. Still a long way away, but this storm's wind-field will be so big that unfavorable winds will persist most of the week, and it doesn't really matter where this thing comes ashore.

If no signs are posted at the beach and no cops are present to tell you otherwise, get wet while it lasts. Can't imagine what swell is going to be left when the winds switch to NW on Friday. With spring tides in 2 days and the storm so close there's bound to be some serious near-shore currents during all this.

Don't really care to read about an arrest or drowning during this storm because they'll be plenty more good swell this winter. Don't paddle into something you can't paddle out of.

 

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!
How long were you able to surf before you were "rescued" ? lol

 

He's the mayor, not the governor.

 

He said please so that is a request...........not a command. Besides that.........I'll take an arrest or ticket if told I can't surf just for GP!

 

Was anyone really planning on paddling out with 20 mph northeast wind this afternoon? You'd have to have a deathwish and a love of ****ty, unpredictable overhead surf. Did anyone do this?
Seriously guys use your heads
