7:30 pm: Early morning photos are up box #1 and you can see the north angle in the waves. The swell size is around thigh to rib high, possibly a little bigger but many of the waves are in that waist high range on sets. If the wind will angle more offshore it would be cleaner, but likely it will clock just enough to chop it up and bump it up with cross chop, we will see…
.
1:00 pm: New photos are up box #2 taken mid morning and you cand see the wind has clocked and there is some cross chop to the waves. Not a lot of size but not too small either. The wave height should increase / build as the wind clocks more onshore and allows more of the swell to angle in. We will see...

6:15 pm: New evening photos are up box #3 and the surf has come up! Photos were taken from 10th Street. There is a low off the coast and it’s slingshotting in some N Swell. Will it hold for tomorrow! Yes is the answer.

In what has already seen a crazy flurry of late season tropical activity, could another named storm form in the Caribbean Sea in November and track our way? The answer is yes, but the latest modeling suggests that Sara will die over central America without any impact to Florida. What will have an impact… a cold front and coastal low that moved off Cape Hatteras early Friday morning, forecast to strengthen into an extra-tropical storm while departing. See what Dean has to say about the increase in size for the weekend, along with the ever-critical wind speed/direction (head south young man!), and a heads up for even colder weather later next week in The Surf Station Forecast. Here is an overview of a large-scale wind map and the tropical activity map highlighting Invest 99L.
