Wednesday 11/02/22

Reporter: T. Strange

7:35 am: Smaller in size surf early on this hump day with the waves down to knee with some occasional larger set waves still sliding through. The surface conditions are semi choppy with the wind N to NE early. The marine forecast calls for the wind to be sideonshore today. On our local buoy the current reading 2.6 feet at 13 seconds changed from yesterdays 3.3 feet at 12 seconds . See the ocean live on the north side pier cam here

8:25 am: Early morning photos are up in box #1 and although the surf looks smaller early, there are still waves left for your hump day. There are spread out 13 second readings on the local buoy! And the East Canaveral Buoy has a strong 5.9 feet at 11 second reading early this morning. Yesterday the waves were good all up and down Florida, and there should be waves hading around all day today. True, the surface conditions may get somewhat choppy, but overall there will be lines underneath.

Here is the weekly weather forecast for St.Augustine Beach, and the 5 day tropical weather outlook that is sniffing out a potential system in the Caribbean Sea next week. Dean’s 7-Day Surf Forecast calls for lingering groundswell with favorably light wind into mid-week, then a strong onshore flow building surf to 2x overhead by Election Day..
