Reporter: D. Smart

7:15 am: A bit cleaner out there today than days past but still fairly mixed up conditions looking at it early this morning, waves look to be in the waist high range with sets up to chest or shoulder high at times. The local marine forecast calling for moderate NE winds through the day, lightening up from the N later this evening. On the local buoy our early morning wave height measurement is 6.9 feet at 8 seconds up from yesterdays 5.9 feet at 6 seconds. You can see the ocean live here on our north side pier cam

Reporter: T. Strange

Here is the overview wind map, and here is the Map centered on St. Augustine. Click.on the link, then zoom out to see wind speed/direction and the fetch that generates waves.

How long will the raw nor’easter last, and will it build sizeable surf? See the updated 7-Day Surf Forecast for the answer.
