Forecast accuracy

for real

i only really like when we get waves according to the predicted forecast. that way it fits into my busy social life and i dont have to make any changes to my rigid routine. just easier that way. great post mooseknuckle i hate un-predicted waves. its so 20th century.

 

glad it was only waist high on weds. totally blown out, damn forecasts are so accurate.

 

there is a website called magicseaweed.com that for example they say we will get 6 footers but we end up by getting 2 footers...this site i think is only good for where the swells are coming from and wind and water temp etc...

 

you got it....

 

bro, took the words right outta my mouth.

 

I think its hilarious when people b$%$# about people b#$%^ing

 

bro, totes.

i hate the way these websites let us down all the time. like, checking the surf is so OP and old school, only longboarders n spongerz check surf these days. lolz u kno haha??! so like when i'm with my bros n the surf is forecasted 2 b good it better damn b good, u kno? im not goin 2 the beach unless its good and it better damn b good if im goin 2 the beach, specially wen its my pride on the line n im lyke 'bros lets surf its firing' then it sucks. so embarassin lolz its so def these stupid internetty kooks fault when it's not as good as forcasted, or lyke when its good n they forecast it 2 b crappy. lyke, its 2010 yall, get ur act 2getha, right? hahah only kooks check surf these days LOL

jus my 2 cents yall

 

hahah
i know bro
my bros do that s@#T all the time LOL
its lyke, WHO DO I TAKE SRSLY NEMORE HAHAHA u kno??!

 

i live in your neighborhood.

 

i love it when Micah drops the forecast and the cams are cut off so the local crews score it.

Just sit inside and play your xbox when it is firing,... we got this.

 

bro u stole my bordz?

 

i just hate when there are waves. IT makes it so much harder for me to claim ripper status. I really like when i can sit inside on my computer and touch myself all day.

My quiver needs some time to dry out because they are all so yellow. This also gives me time to stretch my wetsuit out so my fat a55 will fit into it next time its knee high. I like to be available when your girlfriends call and your busy surfing, totally (Fallopian) tubular, bra!!

This also gives me time to have really sexy tickle-fests with all of my bro'sssss

(only real kooks start threads about fumbled forecasts, the rest of us watch it unfold and know its coming. Branch out a little and use this as "A" source, not "THE" source)

 

i think magicseaweed is an Australian based forecast. i know they do forecasting all over but that s hit is like surfline's forecasts coming from the west side. i know its all looking at data and then making a forecast but i feel the swellinfo guy has been waaaaaay better than any of those guys and he is more local. idk maybe it matters. i see what u mean though totally

 

Your reading comprehension sucks, and why so angry?

 

bros
i dun kno if i like where this is headed.
lets all jus chill

 

I hope to god this is a joke post

 

bro
i dunt kidd
real talk

 

Senor Lee, mi amigo, here we go again. In between your bong hits, of course...

Websites make money from clicks & eyeballs. That's what the website owner reps to various advertisers. Money comes in from advertising so that you, senor, can hang with a 'free' website.

Gotta make money. This ain't no charity, Beavis. It's reality, dudes. Any forecasting site is no different. So, read me ! This isn't a shot at Micah. He does agreat job here. He keeps it real & he keeps it free, which is why most of you tune in ("it's free!")

However.....all websites sell advertising. It goes like this: Hey, Nike, or O'Neill or Bergdorff Goodman or Billabong.....I got 400 unique visitors per day on my site ! And my surveys show that these are primarily American males between the ages of 24 - 50 & they have average annual per capita incomes of $ xxxxxx.xx.

Put your ads on my site, for a fee, and reach these guys !

That's exactly why websites measure clicks on their pages, and eyeballs on their pages.

OK< now I know that Lee is gonna launch an ICBM at me from Oceana, and Zach will send his nuke sub up the Potomac, and Mooseknuckle will lock & load, and Beachbreak will just vent his spleen cause that's what he does....

But dudes....it doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand that if sites post up 'green man' forecasts a week out that they will stimulate a feeding froth from the people who frequent the site. And as a result, the site numbers of eyeballs & unique visits shoot up....and as a result the site owner can claim more viewers & sell more ads, i.e., generate more revenue into his coffers ..... and keep the site 'free' for youse & me.

So the next time you go ballistic on a site for projecting 'green & wonderful' conditions a week out....only to see it 'fall apart' by the time the weekend arrives ?

Understand one thing.

It's a bidness, baby... !
