    how comes its chest to shoulder high sunday morning as of today and buoy reading is 6.2ft @10 secs, I would think with medium period swell it will holds it height by the time it feels bottom of sandbar. so head high is more reasonably, but then again its an offshore buoy reading so you can always knock off couple feet.

    if it was longer period groundswell guess it would be bigger like 6.2ft @18 secs or 5ft @15 sec

    just read report again and noticed it does call for some head high sets---duh...sorry. Regardless, i'm always intrigued by the buoy readings and what actually you see when you get to the beach.

    I've seen some like smaller 3ft@11 readings and then be surprised with head high waves when I get to the beach.

    Anyone else seeing AC a possible Sat night? Specially with the snow holding on to the light giving a possible night session.

    i'm thinking about it too. the best i can say is keep an eye on it. I dont think theres going to be much cleanup before dark after the wind was howling 30+ knots all day. It does turn around on saturday North, but i dont think there's enough time before dark.

    By the look of it i would say sunday before noon (10ish) is go time for me. Warm sun, mid- tide still incoming. In any case keep an eye on it.

    There it is! My jeep loves the snow too but sometimes my clearance isn't enough. I've scraped my skid plate more times than I would have liked to. :eek:

    What kinda clearance/setup do you guys have? I've got a 2 inch lift with 31x10.5 tires on my Jeep...

    Always wanted to go a little higher and add some 33's, but couldn't justify it for the type of driving i do.

    My clearance is stock, but the Liberties have higher clearance than all other models. That was one of the reasons I went with it.
