Tropical Storm Colin

Not much for DE, enjoy Colin, I mean, Crindle!

 

Sweet! We got some shoulder high clean with strong offshore winds this morning. Hard to catch unless it was almost crashing on top of you. Some freight trains out there!

 

any thoughts on NJ seeing any swell? SI models are not picking up much. Diamond Shoals buoy is at 9.5 ft, but a short period of 7 seconds. I got to imagine we get something but just wondering why its not showing up.

 

caught some amazing barrels down this way it just kept building all morning, it became super makeable a few hours ago i couldnt believe it was sc, but im spent now after 4 hours definitely a day to remember.

 

Because up until later today, the storm has been over land mostly. Any other swell from it NJ may see, which would be short period wind swell, is shadowed by the elbow of OBX.

 

interesting I use hurricane pro and it has it strengthening again to a tropical storm, with potential hurricane strength winds.

 

yeah but it's going to get picked up by a front and zipped off to Nova Scotia in quick order (will be off New England by tomorrow morning), moving away from the Mid-Atlantic coast.

 

dammmn dog,that humpback looks really close to shore.i seen we had a humpback breach in avon nj a few days or week ago.id be scared shytless if a whale popped up next to me

 

Cool whale shot! TS Colin really delivered here! It was well overhead for most the day with straight off shores too. A lot of time when the tide gets too low it'll start to close out but not today. One of the better days I can remember in a long while. My wife was trooper and took a bunch of pics. When I recover from the marathon session I'll try to edit and upload a few. Hoping for some morning leftovers!!

 

Unsuspecting sets may pop up with the in tide but it will be short lived. Nothing to ditch work over. If you don't work; good for you, get it!
Surprises are good

 

i want everyone to know that i am in butt fvkery chattanoogie tennessee and did not surf

i'm pissed and fvck everything

 

Good for you...stay there

 

MeTard- what's up? Waffle House meeting in Tennessee? I don't even know where that is- are you close to water? How far from Belmar??

 

wow...Colin delivered long period groomed 3-4 foot lines on the Delmarva this morning. It even LOOKED tropical...the water was freaking turquoise.

 

sitting at work dying to get on it.

 

Got lucky and got it for an hour and a half before the wind came up... lots of fun
