Long Range Forecast

I love when the reports are wrong.

 

you guys need to back the F**k off of swellinfo's nuts. You think you can do a better job?

 

lol....subscribed

 

Swellinfo forecasts are based off model guidance, like all long range weather or surf forecasts are. You throw a tropical system in the mix, and ya, there are going to be some discrepancies between forecast/model updates. The track and development of Emily will highly influence any long range forecasts. People tend to forget how unreliable tropical system forecasts are.

 

yer dern tootn, lee.that tool should go back to surfline and leave the negative stalking to me......yankees suck

 

Thats amazing to me
free, very well run website and ur *****in about it
go back to surfline

 

Awww..did ripturbo not get hugged enough growing up...

 

How is he not honest ??? Did he take your money and rip u off ???? Last time I check the site was free to use.

there are something that the forcast cant calculate into the forcast like bottom conditions . If alot of sand has moved around it could have made or added to a exhisting sandbar .

Maybe you should stop depending on a site and learn about what works best at the breaks you surf at. Weather changes in a moments notice

 

There is no choosing between optimal forecast tracks or fudging long range forecasts to make it look better. Forecasts are based off the GFS model (global forecasting system) wind forecasts, and hurricane forecasts are at times shifted to the GFDL Hurricane model wind forecast.

 

don't bother,Matt,he hates longboarders.no one's stopping you from leaving.why do you care about monmouth when your profile has you bodyboarding west florida?at least go to the gulf coast forum

 

.....and my ignore list keeps on growing.

 

why update if you're leaving and going to surfline?admit you were wrong and are still here

 

You obviously are unaware of what you are talking about with regards to the forecast models....

 

Swellinfo runs a wave model which uses wind input from weather models. Wind input will come from weather models, such as GFS, which is the top global forecast model (run by NCEP/NOAA), which basically every weather forecasting business will use for long range forecasts. That is the short of it. I hope to build out a tutorial section elaborating on many things, including understanding the fundamentals of weather and wave models.
