Friday WFL Surf Forecast 6am: Nothing new to report, flat spell conditions. A disturbance will slide to the south without any wave action to speak of. WFL stays in offshore flow through the period as September wants to take a break from stormy WX. Notice all the east winds lately? Why can’t the flow go SW so the EC of Florida will get offshore winds? Looks like a quick transition from el nino to la nina to me. We are seeing it in the Caribbean also. May and June were so hot with no trades and south winds or no wind. When the ATL high built back in for July the flow has been pretty strong from the east. We are having a cool September with overnight lows near 70. This leads to great WX, less humidity a delicious breeze and cooler overnight lows. In general Florida is seeing this change also. More east flow than anything. The pattern is locked in and set to continue and the only thing that can change it would be a trough or some tropical development. Looking at the models we don’t see any positive signs that could happen in the next week to 10 days. At Least it’s a little cooler out and the WX is good for fishing and other activities just not surfing. Check out Cory and the O’neill booth at Surf Expo this weekend.
Hermine Week in the Caribbean: Good NW swell from Hermine was backed up by quality NNE from the middle ATL making for 4 days of super fun September surf in PR. Hope you can make it down this season.
Friday am POV, smaller but still fun.
Thursday am was perfect, LP swell cracking and uncrowded.
Never take the 1st cut in at Indy’s at low tide. There are cuts in the reef that offer a way onto the beach from the lineup instead of paddling down to Maria’s. In between the 1st cut and the 2nd there was dry reef and it shredded the nose of my beloved board, doh. The space between the 2nd cut and the 3rd is much deeper.
Be Aggressive. Day 2.
Surfing the north side may be tough this winter. The trades start blowing side shore really early making spots like pools and Sandy Beach bumpy. See the trade bumps behind this wave? It was only 9 in the morning. Bump of things to come, east winds forever. S Wall Left, 2nd day of Hermine.
How could one ever idolize Parko? He never took his surfing or film analysis seriously enough…..making video reviews with Fanning like some goof-balls https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CKZzpLWH3c0 even the aggro groms are more serious than these two today. Surfers should never make jokes, it is a VERY serious profession.
thank you for opening my eyes to this idolatry I will take down my Parko statues
Parko has the best style on tour for sure. I’ve always wanted to ride like him and he just seems like a nice guy. And he’s a dog lover! Really fun waves from Herman everywhere on the gulf. That convention looked amazing , a couple from our town were there and are awestruck
I will post some pics of the convention for you JB, wish you were here today, need somebody to surf with 🙂
