Should be for waves I would think. Long slow run up with all that fetch over deep water. Should be some massive swells. Sometimes when the hurricanes pass to the east we pickup wind, not at others. If feeder bands are sweeping over the coast, be sure to keep an eye out for those.

I hear ya Rick, it will be a surfing event for these parts, maybe some SW breeze Fri but the rest will be offshores. I'm totally stoked as there's a spot that breaks 6 miles up a river when it's huge near my house, it peels like Malibu and only works once in a blue moon, its called OldMans because no one under 35 allowed

How did it go up there John? How about other folks up the coast, some good swells come in? It was flat as a pond off the SE coast on Sunday. That is except for these mysterious sets that would move in out of the blue every once in a while. Bill swells likely enough, way to the south of the system too.

I had quietly put this away around the first of November. Impressions can sometimes be wrong, regardless of how much you would like them to be true. So, back up it goes for a while longer. Fingers crossed and best of luck to the folks in the Gulf dealing with Ida.

Just added some new resources to the top of the list of weather sites. They include some powerful new GIS/Sat. Map interactive pages. Check it out!
