The small north swell that arrived today from the cold front will be on the fade as we go through Friday. Dawn patrol will be your best bet- if there’s anything left at all.

ThankYouSurfingThursday – April 28 2016
Surf forecast is for flat or nearly flat conditions for South Florida this weekend. There will be some minor Easterly background swell up above the Bahama shadow, but only knee high or so.

Hurricane Gonzalo
While the cold front draping across the Southeast and the broad low in the North Atlantic may be indicative of Fall, we have a serious tropical system in the Atlantic Basin just Northeast of Puerto Rico.
Windswell Sunday Funday
We have a low off the Southeast coast that formed in the wake of a dissipated cold front. While the storm is not predicted to develop in to a tropical system, it still is creating the wind necessary to build a small swell for Florida this weekend
Hurricane Edouard Surf Forecast
Our fifth named storm of the 2014 Atlantic Basin Tropical Season is chugging along nicely in the Western Atlantic. The storm is nearing Category 3 status, as conditions have been favorable for development- and will continue to be conducive for continued strengthening. Luckily, the storm poses no threat to land…except for high surf along exposed coasts.
