    A vigorous looking wave peeling off the African coast. With the coming weeks forecast looking flat flat flat and, did I mention, flat, it's something to dream on:


    TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK
    NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
    200 AM EDT THU SEP 4 2014

    For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:

    1. A tropical wave, accompanied by a broad low pressure system, has
    emerged off the coast of Africa a few hundred miles east-southeast
    of the Cape Verde Islands. Environmental conditions are expected to
    be conducive for gradual development of this disturbance through
    early next week while it moves westward at about 15 mph.
    * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
    * Formation chance through 5 days...medium...40 percent.

    If it does make it. Hopefully it plays up to it's hype. Here in Delmarva we got very limited swell from it, when forecasted to be epic.

    zach and sandblasters have so many moments lol Have you two braws charged HHI together yet? For real bros, share. This is the tree of trust. Tell us bouts your bro sesh.

    zach, those are sic pics.

    SB, don't forget your shank in the lineup to cut surfers' leashes with when they drop in on you.

    Queen mum keeps us informed!!! I feel like we all need to take an end of the year collection and get her a bouquet of something for Christmas. She puts up with all our antics and disgusting vagrancies, doesn't judge, yet is kind enough to see the swell coming in for us.

    This from flhurricane.com:
    "90L did look impressive a few hours ago but since then it has encountered quite a bit of dry air and it has rapidly weakened. In the next couple of days the system is going to encounter strong southwest wind shear. It has only a slim chance to develop into anything of consequence."

    It's fading fast boys and girls. You must all put your hands together and clap loudly to revive this invest (apologies to Peter Pan and the dying Tinkerbell)

    NOAA swell chart based on the GFS for next Sunday the 14th. Looks to be taking a turn pretty far out in the middle, but as you said, the models don't have a clue, (the Euro kills it off way out on the other side amidst the dry air and Saharan dust) and at least it looks like something to keep an eye on. The weeks wind swell is a lock though - looks waist high or better through Thursday...the winds cant be bad everywhere!
