    A cut-off retro-grading hurricane/extra-trop in our swell window. That is as good as it gets.

    I more or less dismissed Nicole until I saw the latest models, holy fark, this could be a good week coming up. And after yesterdays OH pumping swell, I won't be spitting bits of lung in the lineup from being out of shape.

    lol...I was scrolling over your chart to see the winds (on the screen shot)...duh.

    It looks like we could actually see the same clean up on Sunday_Tues but not Thursday like you. What is the wind forecast in your chart for Thurs?

    I guess it's gotta be a light NW wind for Thurs...up there. Thinking down south could get really good the more I look at this thing!

    check out the forcast for gold beach oregon starting wednesday 24 feet at 16 seconds is i believe the peak. the graph is literally maxed out, and this isn't even a named storm. AHHHH the media-hype antics of storm nomenclature on the east coast makes me homesick

    Looking impressive on satellite - 100 mph winds this morning, with a slow NNW track. This thing is pushing out swell.

    cat 4 now. Bermuda is gonna take a direct strike. Well at least we'll get one proper hurricane swell this year. I can hear the Canadian stampede on the way now for the weekend.
