    i have 3 guns.
    momma bear/papabear/babybear.
    momma - 8'
    baby - 7'6"
    popa - 9'6"

    out of the three the 7/6 cuts through righteous swells like hot knife/butter.

    I donated my gun to a local surfer before I left the west coast. Hopefully it isn't collecting dust. I used it maybe 8 times in 10 years.

    TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK
    NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
    800 PM EDT TUE SEP 9 2014

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

    1. A broad area of low pressure is located a few hundred miles west of
    the Cape Verde Islands. Shower activity associated with this low
    has not become any better organized since yesterday, and no
    tropical cyclone formation is anticipated tonight or Wednesday.
    However, environmental conditions could become a little more
    favorable for development by later in the week while the low moves
    toward the west-northwest and northwest at about 15 mph over the
    open Atlantic.


    * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...20 percent.
    * Formation chance through 5 days...high...70 percent.

    2. Disorganized showers and thunderstorms over the Bahamas and the
    adjacent Atlantic are associated with a weak trough. Surface
    pressures are not falling in the area, and development, if any, will
    be very slow to occur. This system is forecast to move toward the
    west at about 10 mph during the next few days.
    * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
    * Formation chance through 5 days...low...20 percent.

    There's pretty good swell here in EMass the next few days and it should tail right into Incest 91L and then the hype train rolls from there.

    Yeah... the Northeast is doing alright, depending on the spot. Wish the wind would kick a bit north. Lot's of East in it, could be some drifty, punchy, short period fun. All the Johnny-on-the-spot dudes will be able to make the most out of this one.

    I'm pulling for 91L to fill out the weekend... I'm buying a ticket! CHOOOO CHOOOOOOO .... ALL ABOARD MOTHER F*CKERS!

    Pretty promising looking swell producers for mid week next!! NOAA swell maps based on the GFS model for next Wednesday. 50-60 west is pretty far out to sea for solid swell...but the potential is there!


    Eduoard and another one right behind it...

    yeah it looks like 91L changed it's mind and made a course correction for europe blahhhh. should get some juice from it still but def keeping my eye on the one behind it. also, don't go to AC. there's better spots to hit in nj without having to worrying about derelicts roaming and scavenging the island looking for trouble.

    TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK
    NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
    200 AM EDT THU SEP 11 2014

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

    1. Shower activity associated with a broad area of low pressure
    centered about 750 miles west of the Cape Verde Islands continues
    to show signs of organization. Conditions are expected to become
    more favorable for development, and a tropical depression could form
    during the next day or two while the low moves toward the west-
    northwest and northwest at about 15 mph over the open Atlantic.

    * Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...50 percent.
    * Formation chance through 5 days...high...80 percent.

    2. Shower activity associated with a weak low pressure area near the
    northwestern Bahamas has changed little in organization over the
    past several hours. Upper-level winds are forecast to become
    unfavorable for significant development while the low moves slowly
    westward toward southern Florida. If necessary, however, an Air
    Force plane will investigate the system later today. Regardless of
    development, this low will bring locally heavy rains to portions of
    southern Florida and the Florida Keys during the next couple of
    days.


    * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...20 percent.
    * Formation chance through 5 days...medium...30 percent.

    Now TD6. Is this taking the turn too far out for swell? How far out do we usually pick up swell?

    I think this is going to be too far out for anything epic... swell could make it but we might be longboarding it.

    This is HORRIBLE news for RI! There is a backdoor low coming across the country expected to hit us Directly from 9/15 all the way through to 9/19?! It will be causing Severe East winds, dangerous low tides at exposed point breaks, and an upwelling sending water temps into the 50's.
    No small craft advisory has been issued yet, but people in New York and Massachusetts are being Strongly advised to stay at home, just this once, and surf where they live. Connecticut is welcome due to being massively lame, but relegated to the Beach Breaks, and New York has been highly recommended- (it's South of you)
    After extensive research Maritime authorities have come to the conclusion that other states beside RI actually do produce high quality surf in the event of a storm, so it is Indeed still possible to score waves. Yes! That's RAD news!
    Please be Safe out there! Where you uh, live. And stuff.
    Godspeed and we'll see you ALL for the next one I'm sure. By 6am. 6 people minimum to a car. Please don't forget your litter and a sense of Entitlement.

    It does look too far out. If we didn't have that shallow shelf, then it would another story
